Paper: Gas Well Stimulation In The Morrow Sandstone of S.E. New Mexico

Various treatment fluids and techniques have been used in attempts to stimulate gas production from the Morrow Sandstone formation in S.E. New Mexico. None of the treating fluids or techniques use in the past have given consistently successful results. Recent developments in stimulation fluid surfactants and refined treatment techniques have improved the operator's chances for successfully stimulating the Morrow. This paper reviews the problems associated with the Morrow and outlines treatment procedures and materials to use in stimulating Morrow gas wells.
