| FRACTURING CHEMISTRY: QUESTIONS TO SPECIALIST |
 |
 Polysaccharide fracturing agents are traditionally applied for fracturing operations.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of polysaccharide-based fracturing fluids?
Cases of applying dry and liquid destructor for water polysaccharide gel are known.
What destructor is, in your opinion, more suitable? At the moment companies tend
to adhere to linkers with deferred linkage. What are the advantages of this linker?
Read the answers to these questions provided by one of the most prominent specialists
in the industry.
L.A. Magadova graduated from Gubkin Moscow Petrochemical & Gas Industry Institute,
where she had studied organic and petrochemical synthesis technology. She has
worked in Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas since 1999. At the moment
Magadova is a Deputy Director of the Institute of Oilfield Chemistry and a Technical
Director of Khimeko-GANG. Magadova took part in development of technologies to
