Acidizing/stimulation
This study explores enhancing gas production through a novel combination of prestimulation using a coiled tubing unit and high-rate matrix acidizing.
The authors of this paper describe a method of stimulating a multizone hydrocarbon-producing well wherein a tool is deployed downhole by wireline to generate acid vapor at a target depth, allowing each interval to be treated uniquely.
In this work, microseismic observations are integrated with strain and other observations to investigate the microseismic response in relation to the underlying hydraulic fracture geometry for different rock types.

The authors of this paper describe a project in which far-field diverters were pumped to mitigate wellbore sanding and production loss in existing parent wells. -
Engineers desperately need an alternative to acid placement through pipe, coiled tubing, or bullheading. For example, propellants have been around for years; however, their performance has not quite met the hype. Nevertheless, several case histories have been authored to suggest their efficacy; historically, some treatments have even been wildly successful.
