Abstract
Methods and fluids for enhancing friction reduction. An example method introduces a treatment fluid into a wellbore tubing disposed in a wellbore. The wellbore tubing is composed of metal ions. The treatment fluid is composed of an aqueous fluid and a metal silicate. The method further includes coating at least a portion of the wellbore tubing with a silicate film produced from the reaction of the metal silicate with the metal ions of the wellbore tubing and then fracturing the subterranean formation.
