▎ 摘 要
NOVELTY - Nanoparticle coated proppant comprises: a proppant particle (100) comprising sand and/or ceramic material; and a nanoparticle proppant coating (110) coats the proppant particle, where the nanoparticle proppant comprises unfunctionalized organic resin, a strengthening agent comprising at least one of carbon nanotubes, silica, alumina, glass, mica, graphite, talc, nanoclay, graphene, carbon nanofibers, boron nitride nanotubes, vanadium pentoxide, zinc oxide, calcium carbonate, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, silicon nitride, silicon carbide, or aramid fibers, and functionalized nanoparticles adhered to the unfunctionalized organic resin, in which the functionalized nanoparticles comprise nanoparticles having at least one attached hydrophobic moiety, oleophobic moiety, or omniphobic moiety. USE - The proppant is useful in a hydraulic fracturing fluid for increasing a rate of hydrocarbon production from a subsurface formation (all claimed). ADVANTAGE - The proppant increases a rate of hydrocarbon production from a subsurface formation. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are also included for: (a) producing (M1) nanoparticle coated proppant with a nanoparticle proppant coating, comprising reacting nanoparticles with at least one of an alkoxysilane solution or a halosilane solution to form functionalized nanoparticles, in which functionalized nanoparticles comprise nanoparticles having at least one attached hydrophobic moiety, oleophobic moiety, or omniphobic moiety, and coating proppant particles with unfunctionalized organic resin, a strengthening agent comprising at least one of carbon nanotubes, silica, alumina, mica, nanoclay, graphene, boron nitride nanotubes, vanadium pentoxide, zinc oxide, calcium carbonate, or zirconium oxide, and the functionalized nanoparticles to produce nanoparticle coated proppant with nanoparticle proppant coating; and (b) a hydraulic fracturing fluid comprising water and the nanoparticle coated proppant; and (c) increasing (M2) a rate of hydrocarbon production from a subsurface formation, comprising producing a first rate of production of hydrocarbons from the subsurface formation through a wellbore, in which the hydrocarbons comprise a first interfacial tension, introducing a hydraulic fracturing fluid comprising the nanoparticle coated proppant into the subsurface formation, in which the nanoparticle coated proppant reduce the first interfacial tension of the hydrocarbons to a second interfacial tension, thus reducing at least one of condensate banking or water blockage near the wellbore and increasing hydrocarbon production from the subsurface formation by producing a second rate of production of hydrocarbons from the subsurface formation, in which the second rate of production of hydrocarbons is greater than the first rate of production of hydrocarbons.
