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.
-
This work proposes a method to interpret far-field strain-change and pressure data to quantify fracture connectivity and properties at the cluster level.
-
This paper extends an integrated two-scale continuum model that contemplates mass, momentum, and energy changes to study the acid-stimulation process in complex carbonate acid-stimulation systems with the development of fracture and vug networks.
-
The authors of this paper write that autonomous outflow-control devices can positively affect matrix acidizing by providing the best possible conformance.
