Abstract
A stabilized fracturing fluid and a method of stabilizing a fracturing fluid containing at least one of guar gum and its derivatives is disclosed, wherein at least one stabilizing compound selected from the thiol derivatives of heterocyclic compounds is added to the fracturing fluid. This method of stabilization prevents degradation of the fracturing fluid, i.e., reduction in its rheological properties at high temperatures and permits smooth practice of the fracturing operation.
