Well stimulation for hydraulic fracturing

Varn Agrawal

Abstract

The stimulation method that is currently most often employed around the world is hydraulic fracturing. The selection of an appropriate hydraulic fracturing technique is very important. Carbonates have the option of either acid or supported fracture treatment. In this paper, the key arguments for propped hydraulic fracturing being preferred in carbonate reservoirs will be covered in depth.
