Abstract:
1. A method of generating high pressure dual phase mixture, comprising: mounting a dual phase mixture generator on a transportable platform, wherein the dual phase mixture generator comprises a mixing chamber connected with a first inlet, a second inlet, and a first outlet; mounting a first container and a first pump on the transportable platform, wherein the first pump is operably connected with the first container; mounting a second container and a second pump on the transportable platform, where the second container comprises a source of gas, and wherein the second pump is operably connected with the second container and the second inlet; deploying the transportable platform at a wellsite; introducing a base fluid and a foaming additive into the first inlet; pumping a gas into the second inlet from the second container under high pressure; combining the base fluid with the gas in the mixing chamber to generate a high pressure dual phase mixture; and, discharging the generated high pressure dual phase mixture via the outlet.
