Abstract:
A method of using a suppression factor fluid during a well activity is provided. The method comprising the steps of introducing a suppression factor fluid into a wellbore, the suppression factor fluid comprising an untreated monovalent brine; and a suppression sugar alcohol, the suppression sugar alcohol in an amount operable to achieve a suppression factor, wherein a density upper limitation of the suppression factor fluid is greater than the density upper limitation of the monovalent brine; and completing the well activity in the wellbore, such that the suppression sugar alcohol inhibits crystallization during the well activity.
