ConocoPhillips Co. (COP) comprehensively reviewed stimulation techniques and acid fracturing designs in North Sea chalks to improve its stimulation designs. The choice between matrix acidization, acid ...

Saudi Arabian Oil Co. (Saudi Aramco) has initiated a gas development program that requires acid fracturing wells in the Khuff carbonate reservoir of South Ghawar to deliver 1.2 bcfd of nonassociated ...

Well fracturing (hydraulic or acid fracturing) increases effective permeability by creating high-conductivity fractures that connect the wellbore to a larger rock volume. It sits in the completion and ...

The California Council on Science & Technology (“CCST”) recently released its Independent Study of well stimulation in California. The report was prepared for the California Natural Resources Agency ...

Many areas in the United States are currently experiencing rapid development of natural gas production wells employing the method of hydraulic fracturing to extract the gas out of shale formations.

Well acidizing is a stimulation technique that uses acids to dissolve near-wellbore damage or create conductive channels, lowering skin and improving inflow. It fits in the upstream value chain at the ...
