A method of preparing and using a drag-reducing composition in a well treatment operation includes the step of preparing the drag-reducing composition by mixing a polymer emulsion that includes a first surfactant and a first solvent, with a second surfactant and a second solvent. The method continues with the step of combining the drag-reducing composition with an aqueous treatment fluid. The method further includes the step of injecting the drag-reducing composition and aqueous treatment fluid into a subterranean formation, a pipeline or a gathering line. |
