The article considers the advantages and limitations of hydraulic fracturing fluid based on carboxymethyl cellulose determined as a result of laboratory studies. As a result of testing the studied fluid manufacturing features compared with similar fracturing fluids it was determined that the fluid of interest can be effectively used as a fluid for formation hydraulic fracturing especially in low permeability reservoirs. This fluid is widely available and has a low cost. It can easily replace the foreign analogues.
