Stimulation is performed on a well to increase or restore production. Sometimes, a well initially exhibits low permeability, and stimulation is employed to commence production from the reservoir.

At-a-Glance: Offshore well stimulation restores or enhances inflow by removing near-wellbore damage or creating conductive paths via matrix acidizing, acid/proppant fracturing, solvent and scale ...

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 ...
