Simulation Studies on Effect of Parameters on to the Matrix Acidizing
Abstract: Matrix acidizing entails introducing an acid solution into the formation at a pressure lower than the fracture pressure in order to dissolve some of the minerals present. The major objective of removing the formation damage close to the wellbore, therefore restoring the natural permeability and greatly rising the well productivity. This paper is a simulation study on matrix acidizing of both sandstone and carbonate reservoirs using MATLAB software. Design parameters …

Mud Acid Effect on Fines Migration Problem Using a Newly Developed Al/Zr-Based Clay Stabilizer (A): Mitigation Can Happen
Abstract: Sandstone reservoirs exhibit severe fines migration problems subsequent to conventional mud acid (HCl: HF) treatments. The acid treatment proved to be effective for a relatively short period of time, with a sudden production decline owing to either that mud acid spent rapidly in close proximity to the wellbore, causing clays to migrate into the acidized area and re-plug the formation; or that the mud acid system actually weakens the structure …

Well Injectivity Management during Geological Carbon Sequestration Activity
Abstract: It is well known that the saline aquifer formations are considered very reliable candidates for carbon sequestration because of their wide availability and they have good storage capacity. Due to high formation salinity, there a big concern about bore formation dry-out resulting from the salt precipitation in the form of halite (NaCl). The mutual solubility between CO2 and brine is responsible for creating the salt deposits, this processes may take …
