Abstract:
A method of treating and producing formation fluids includes introducing a first drop ball into a string of tubulars, pumping the first drop ball to a first ball seat, applying pressure to the first drop ball to shift a first sleeve exposing an outlet port, introducing a second drop ball into the string of tubulars, pumping the second drop ball to a second ball seat, applying pressure to the second drop ball to shift a second sleeve closing the outlet port and opening an inlet port, and introducing a fluid through at least one of a first injection port directly onto the first drop ball and a second injection port directly onto the second drop ball. The first injection port is arranged upwardly of the first sleeve and the second injection port is arranged upwardly of the second sleeve.
