Abstract

A well treatment fluid composition comprises a solvent (such as water), a polymer soluble or hydratable in the solvent, a crosslinking agent, an inorgnaic breaking agent, and an ester compound,. Preferably, the hydratable polymer is a polysaccharide, such as galactomannan, cellulose, or derivatives thereof. The crosslinking agent is preferably a borate, titanate, or zirconium-containing compound. The inorganic breaking agent is preferably a metal-based oxidizing agent, such as an alkaline ear metal or transition metal-based oxidizing agent. The ester compound is preferably an ester of polycarboxylic acid, such as an ester of oxalate, citrate, or ethylenediamine tetraacetate.
One example of a suitable ester compound is acetyl triethyl citrate.
