Gas and Oil Well Fracturing with Carbon Dioxide

Linde is the largest supplier of carbon dioxide in the United States.

We also supply the carbon dioxide portable tanks, booster pumps and expert operators needed to get the job done.

Linde is also the only company to serve carbon dioxide frac customers in all major gas-producing areas of the United States.

 

Liquid carbon dioxide is often injected into gas and oil wells, to enhance hydrocarbon production rates and yields. It can also be used for:

 

* Fracturing of low-energy reservoirs

* Rapid clean-up of treating fluids

* Acid breakdowns and treatments

* Water-sensitive formation protection

* Mud, silt and fines removal

* Emulsion clean-up

* Water block removal

* Reduction in swabbing time

* pH stabilization

* Permeability improvement

* Surface tension reduction

* Reducing gas loss to formation matrix
