Exercise #3: A 60-ft thick, 50-md sandstone pay
Exercise #3: A 60-ft thick, 50-md sandstone pay zone at a depth of 9,500 ft is to be acidized with an acid solution having a specific gravity of 1.07 and a viscosity of 1.5 cp down a 2-in. inside diameter (ID) coil tubing. The formation fracture gradient is 0.7 psi/ft. The wellbore radius is 0.328 ft. Assuming a reservoir pressure of 4,000 psia, drainage area radius of 1,000 ft, and a skin factor of 15. a Calculate: a) The maximum acid injection rate using safety margin 300 psi. b) The maximum expected surface injection pressure at the maximum injection rate
