The patent application discloses a degradable downhole tool member for hydrocarbon resource recovery. The downhole tool member comprises a shaped body comprising a degradable polymer matrix, wherein the downhole tool member, when held in downhole fluid at about 80° C., has an initial mass loss about 14% for a holding period of about 2 days in a pressure holding test.

Nano- and micro-particles (NMP) can be formed from an oil/water emulsion. The emulsion is made by mixing a liquid solvent, at least one surfactant, a particle-forming compound, and at least curing agent. If desired, pH control agents and viscosity enhancers can be added to the liquid solvent. The particle-forming compound and the curing agents are mixed together and form the oil phase in the emulsion and after curing, the particles are formed. The nano- and micro-particles can be used as proppant to enhance the conductivity of nano- and microfractures and fluid-loss-control additive for hydraulic fracturing operations.

An emulsifying composition for an oil based drilling fluid includes oleyl alcohol and a mixture of polymeric amides. The polymeric amides can be 1,3-dihydroxypropan-2-yl (E)-12-hydroxyoctadec-9-enoate, (9E,9'E)-N,N&#x2032;-(azanediylbis(ethane-2,1-diyl))bis(12-hydroxyoctadec-9-enamide, (E)-12-hydroxy-N,N-bis(2-((E)-12-hydroxyoctadec-9-enamido(ethyl)octadec-9-enamide, (Z)-4-(bis(2-((E)-12-hydroxyoctadec-9-enamido)ethy)amino)-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid, 1,3-dihydroxypropan-2-yl(Z)-4-(bis(2-((E)-12-hydroxyoctadec-9-enamido)ethy)amino)-4-oxobut-2-enoate, and N1,N1,N4,N4-tetrakis(2-((E)-12-hydroxyoctadec-9-enamido)ethyl)maleamide. The method of forming the emulsifying composition includes reacting a fatty oil with diethylenetriamine and then maleic acid, and adding oleyl alcohol. The high density emulsifying composition is stable at high temperatures of drilling operations at greater depths in the wellbore.

The method for well-stimulation through a wellbore in a rock formation is hydraulic fracturing under high temperature conditions. The method includes injecting a fracturing fluid system to the rock formation; fracturing the rock formation at a temperature between 150-260 degrees Celsius; and recovering fluid components of the fracturing fluid system from the wellbore and setting the proppant in the fractures. The fracturing fluid system includes proppant and a plurality of fluid components. The fluid components can include water, a gelling agent, and a stabilizer made of ascorbic acid ranging from 50-100 ppt so as to adjust pH and delay said cross linking agent.
