Course Description
This five full-day course is designed to provide your valuable attendees with a comprehensive knowledge
about Formation Damage and Acid Stimulation Techniques in the oilfield. The course will
address the recommended practices of well stimulation according to the international
standards and policies of reputable E&P companies. New techniques and technologies of well
stimulation will be provided into the course to cope with the industry trends and leverage
company performance levels.
The course starts by presenting the basic concepts for stimulation job design, execution, and follow up.
Discussion is carried out on formation damage and its effect on well performance and planning
of acid stimulation treatments. This course will focus on major areas of acid stimulation
techniques and addresses both theoretical concepts and practical onsite experience
