 Introduction

Matrix stimulation is a technique in which a solvent is injected into

the formation to dissolve some of the materials present and hence
recover or increase the permeability in the near-wellbore region.

Coiled tubing is a continuous length of steel pipe, spooled onto a

large diameter reel. The pipe comes in a variety of sizes and can be
run into any well. Coiled tubing is commonly used to convey tools,
and circulate liquids and gases into and out of the wellbore without
relieving the wellbore pressure

 Well Description and Methodology
Well A is a horizontal oil well drilled in a carbonate formation whose
thickness varies from 400 to 500 ft.

The oil API is 42.9, with a GOR around 750 scf/STB and no water cut.

The well is cased hole completed with a perforated interval of 3,100 ft

Before the stimulation treatment, Well A was shut in multiple times to

perform wireline interventions during which killing fluids caused
significant damage to the formation The well was not producing, and
therefore running a production log was not possible.

The goal of the stimulation intervention: Revive the well and put it back in production
 Well Description and Methodology

Two methodologies:
Evaluates the treatment in real time using a mix of qualitative and
quantitative approaches for DTS interpretation.

Evaluate existing fluid intake zones and adapt the fluid placement
strategy optimize treatment effectiveness.

Uses the pressure data recorded via the bottomhole assembly match
simulated pressure data understanding of the reservoir and its reaction
to the treatment.

Determining skin reduction, wormholes penetration, uniform

stimulation, and giving a post-treatment production profile.

 Job Objectives and Intervention Workflow
Step 1: RIH with the CT, reach total depth(TD). Shut the well in, and record DTS ( DTS-1 Baseline).

Step 2: Keep the CT at TD, preflush consisting of inert fluid is pumped at constant rate from annulus of CT
and well tubing, and DTS is recorded (DTS- 2 Injection).

Step 3: Once the DTS information evaluation confirms that fluids have reached TD, pumps are shut in and
DTS is recorded to observe the wellbore and reservoir temperature recoveries (DTS- 3 Warmback).

Step 4: After the previous 3 DTS step, data interpretation allows identifying thief zones and tight zones
modifying the pumping schedule to make sure diverter and acid are optimally placed.

Step 5: Diverter is spotted via CT in the thief zones, then pumps are shut in and DTS is recorded to observe
wellbore and reservoir temperature changes (DTS- 4 Post diverter).

Step 6: Acid is spotted via CT, but targeting tight or damaged zones, pump are once again shut in and DTS
is recorded to observe temperature changes of the wellbore and reservoir ( DTS- 5 Post Acid).

Step 7: The treatment is followed by a post-flush pumped via CT, and pumps are shut in to acquire a last
DTS survey ( DTS- 6 Post).
 Real-Time Treatment Evaluation

Steps 1 through 4: Acquire baseline, preflush injection, and

warmback DTS and generate an optimized pumping schedule.

Depth correlation was performed using the change in CCL signal at the casing
shoe.

The geothermal gradient displays a flat feature in the horizontal section of the
well.

Zones where the temperature remains cooler during the warmback correspond
to those zones with higher permeability and porosity.

Step 5: Spot the diverter in highly permeable thief zones and acquire
DTS.

POOH RIH Record DTS acquisition.

Step 6: Spot the acid in damaged-tight zones and acquire DTS.

POOH RIH Record DTS acquisition.

Step 7: Pump post-flush, record DTS and compare to preflush DTS.

 Conclusions
The use of CT enable with fiber optic and real-time DHG has proven to be the
most effective technology for matrix stimulation treatment execution and
evaluation to date.

Such CT units enable the acquisition of not only bottomhole parameters, but also
DTS, so that the job can be evaluated and optimized in real time.

The pressure match is a procedure that needs to be ran iteratively, therefore, the
input of parameters need to carefully verified and validated.

The pressure match of the stimulation treatment resulted in the determination of

wormholes and fluid penetrations, suggesting that a deeper penetration was
required for the acid.

Post-stimulation production logs can help evaluating a job more efficiently.
