Abstract
A method of designing a particle size distribution of particulate bridging lost circulation material for a fractured leakage includes the following steps: classifying the lost circulation materials according to a particle size; calculating an expected range of a characteristic particle size of the lost circulation materials according to a fracture width and particle size selection criteria; setting a relative percentage content of the each level of the lost circulation materials; using a particle size distribution function to fit a particle size distribution curve; calculating the characteristic particle size of the lost circulation materials according to the particle size distribution curve; determining whether the calculated characteristic particle size conforms to the expected range of the characteristic particle size; and generating the particle size distribution of the lost circulation materials conforming to the particle size selection criteria.
