The Stimulation of Oil and Gas Wells

Presenters

James E. Franks, Dowell, Incorporated

Any procedure used to increase the flow of fluids from a well can be called a stimulation treatment. In general, such treatments fall into two broad categories: first, those performed as a part of normal well completion and second, remedial treatments designed to boost declining production of older wells. The principal stimulation methods are (1) nitro blasting, (2) perforating, (3) acidizing, (4) fracturing, and (5) formation-cleaner treatments.
