Foam stimulation

Foamed fluids are becoming very popular for use in stimulation treatments. This can be attributed to their excellent properties such as low leakoff rate, excellent proppant transport, longer fractures with less fluid, minimum formation damage, and superior posttreatment cleanup. Base fluids that can be foamed are oil, water, and acid. Foam quality is very critical to many of the properties of the resultant foam fluid. This quality changes with temperature and pressure. Included in this paper is a new approach to an easier determination of foam quality under bottomhole treating conditions so that necessary ratio adjustment can be made at the wellhead to obtain the desired quality at the formation.
