Well clean premium (WCP-1) system and method
A well clean premium (WCP-1) system may be injected directly into an oil and gas reservoir through a production pipeline. This may provide a high reactivity stimulation integral system for carbonated reservoirs to increase the hydrocarbon productivity and provide corrosive self-control. The WCP-1 system may provide a special blend of last generation additives (i.e., surfactant, tensoactives, and special catalyst) that may permit the stimulation execution with minimal risk. It may be compatible with nitrogen (N 2 ) applications where the bottom hole temperature may not be as relevant. Less volume may be required for a specific stimulation compared with standard acid systems, and it may not be necessary to add corrosion inhibitors to the WCP-1 system. Accordingly, minimal or no additives are needed within the system, conserving a high reactivity with the carbonates. Excellent corrosion control also may be provided with no corrosion inhibitor needed when working with standard temperatures.

a formulation of a viscoelastic surfactant, a compound based on organic molecules, humectant, capillary pressure and surface tension reducers, a catalyst, aminomethanamide, quaternary ammonium salt, and water injected directly into an oil and gas reservoir through a production pipeline, thereby providing a high reactivity stimulation integral system for carbonated reservoirs to increase hydrocarbon productivity and provide corrosive self-control.
2 . The WCP-1 system of claim 1 , the formulation comprising:
approximately 25-30% of the viscoelastic surfactant, approximately 10-15% of the compound based on organic molecules, humectant, capillary pressure and surface tension reducers, 8% of the catalyst, approximately 30-35% of aminomethanamide, approximately 5-8% quaternary ammonium salt, and approximately 12-20% water.
