Latest Patents
Meyer is listed as an inventor on 1 patent: “Method of Isolating Open Perforations in Horizontal Wellbores Using an Ultra Lightweight Proppant.” The invention describes building a plug in a horizontal wellbore with a fluid pill containing a high concentration of ultra-lightweight proppant, such as neutrally buoyant proppant or an ultra-lightweight proppant mixture. The fluid pill is pumped toward fractures in a zone of interest, after which pumping is stopped or reduced so the fractures can partially close. The proppant remains suspended while the fluid is stationary. Pumping then resumes slowly or in a short burst, encouraging the proppant to bridge and form a plug.
