Described is an oil-degradable ball sealer for use in the oil and gas
industry. The ball seal comprises a particular composition including
ethylene and one or more alpha-olefins, prepared by an injection molding
technique to provide a ball sealer which will dissolve in stimulation or
wellbore fluids after stimulation operations are complete. The
composition, when dissolved into wellbore fluids, does not pose a hazard
or problem to aqueous wellbore fluids or further wellbore stimulations.
