摘要
The drag-reduction (DR) behavior of xanthan gum, partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide, guar gum, and hydroxyethyl cellulose at various polymer solutions has been experimentally investigated with a full-scale coiled-tubing (CT) test facility that consists of 1-, 1(1)/(2)-, and 2(3)/(8)-in. CT reels. Data analysis revealed that the tubing diameter, curvature ratio, and polymer concentration are important factors affecting the DR in CT. The modified DR envelope is a useful toot for evaluating the DR performance of polymer solutions in CT.
