Nitrogen as a displacement medium in perforating applications can minimize formation damage. Jetting with nitrogen is particularly helpful improving fluid recovery and is even more versatile when used in conjunction with coil tubing. A nitrogen cushion for drill-stem testing can provide better quality samples and greater control of the test. Use of nitrogen in all of these well-servicing applications is demonstrated in this study with simplified nitrogen displacement curves.
