Well Stimulation Matrix and Fracture Acidizing
Discipline
Production & Operations
Course Duration
5 days
Delivery Method
In-house
Well stimulation is a well intervention operation performed to enhance production by improving the flow of hydrocarbons in the near-wellbore area. This course presents the fundamentals of well stimulation design and execution so that the participants can diagnose formation damage and select the proper treatment.
Course Contents
-
Overview of common well stimulation methods and their applications
-
Formation damage in carbonate and sandstone reservoirs
-
Formation damage mitigation
-
Carbonate acidizing design (the design will include real field practice and how to design a complete acid treatment recipe for actual carbonate reservoirs)
-
Sandstone acidizing design and real-time job evaluation (case histories will be studied)
-
Acid and hydraulic fracturing fluids design and conventional recipes
-
Scaling up the lab experimental results to simulate field well stimulation operations
