Abstract:
A system and method for hydrating a hydratable material are provided in which a first hydration fluid is heated prior to mixing with the hydratable material to produce a hydration mixture. The hydration mixture is subsequently mixed with a second hydration fluid to produce a well injection fluid having a hydrated hydratable material. Generally, the first hydration fluid will be at about ambient temperature before it is heated and the second hydration fluid will be at about at about ambient temperature when it is mixed with the hydration mixture. Typically, the first hydration fluid will be a minor part of the hydration fluid content of the well injection fluid and the second hydration fluid will be a major part of the hydration fluid content of the well injection fluid.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for hydrating a hydratable material comprising:\n (a) generating a fluid flow between one or more inlets and an outlet, the fluid flow downstream of the inlets comprising first hydration-fluid stream at a first temperature and a second hydration-fluid stream at a second temperature and the fluid flow at the outlet comprising a flow of a well injection mixture: (b) elevating the temperature of the first hydration-fluid stream to a third temperature above the first temperature and above the second temperature; (c) combining the first hydration-fluid stream with a hydratable material to at least partially hydrate the hydratable material and form a hydration mixture, wherein the combining is at an elevated temperature above the first temperature and the second temperature; and (d) combining the hydration mixture with the second hydration-fluid stream to form the flow of the well injection mixture.
