n: any chemical compound. one element of which is hydrogen, that dissociates in solution to produce free hydrogen ions. For example, hydrochloric acid. HCI, dissociates in water to produce hydrogen ions, H+, and chloride ions, CI-. This reaction is expressed chemically as HCI + H+ + CI- . See ion.

a reactive material with a low pH. Common oilfield mineral acids are HCl and HCl/HF.

n: a substance capable of reacting with an acid to form a salt. A typical base is sodium hydroxide (caustic),with the chemical formula NaOH. For example, sodium hydroxide combines with hydrochloric acid to form sodium chloride (a salt) and water. This reaction is written chemically as NaOH + HCl -+ NaCI + H2O.

n: a method of stimulating production by opening new flow channels in the rock surrounding a production well. Often called a frac job. Under extremely high hydraulic pressure, a fluid (such as distillate, diesel fuel, crude oil, dilute hydrochloric acid. water, or kerosene) is pumped downward through production tubing or drill pipe and forced out below a packer or between two packers. The pressure causes cracks to open in the formation, and die fluid penetrates the formation through the cracks. Sand grains, aluminum pellets, walnut shells. or similar materials (propping agents) are carried in suspension by die fluid into the cracks. When die pressure is released at the surface, the fracturing fluid returns to the well. The cracks partially close on the pellets. leaving channels for oil to flow around them to the well. See explosive fracturing, hydraulic fracturing.

n: a way that increase the production of crude oil by increase layer permeability.

n: a simple organic acid, HCOOH, used for acidising oilwells. It is stronger than acetic acid rot much less corrosive than hydrofluoric or hydrochloric acid and is usually used for hightemperature wells.

an organic acid used in higher temperature wells for shallow damage removal.

n: a fluid used in the fracturing process (i.e., a method of stimulating production by opening new flow channels in the rock surrounding a production well). Under extremely high hydraulic pressure, frac fluids (such as distillate, diesel fuel, crude oil, dilute hydrochloric acid, water, or kerosene) are pumped downward through production tubing or drill pipe and forced out below a packer or between two packers. The pressure causes cracks to open in the formation, and the fluid penetrates the formation through the cracks. Sand grains, aluminum pellets, walnut shells, or similar materials (propping agents) are carried in suspension by the fluid into the cracks. When the pressure is released at the surface, the fracturing fluid returns to the well but leaves behind the propping agents to hold open the formation cracks.

the fluid used in a fracturing treatment, may include pre and post treatment fluids.

see hydrochloric acid.

n: an acid compound, HCI, commonly used to acidize carbonate rocks. It is prepared by mixing hydrogen chloride gas in water. Also known as muriatic acid.

the most common oilfield stimulation acid. A mixture of hydrogen chloride gas in water. Useful for removing calcium scale, some mud and cement damage and very shallow stimulation of formations with some calcium in the flow path.

adj: driven by water power. hydrofluoric acid n: a strong, poisonous liquid acid compound of hydrogen and fluorine (HF). Often mixed with hydrochloric acid, it is used mainly to remove mud from the wellbore and surrounding formation pores. Also called mud acid.

n: a mixture of acids used for removal of mud from the well bore. See mud acid.

n: see mud acid.
