Matrix Acidizing

Matrix Acidizing is the stimulation process in which acid treatment is injected into the formation but below fracture pressure. It can be used in Carbonate as well as Sandstone formations. In Sandstone formations, the primary objective of 'Matrix Acidization' is to remove any particles plugging the formation that can be removed by acid and hence increase the flow of formation fluid into the wellbore.
