ABSTRACT:
A process for improving the effectiveness of control pulse fracturing in a carbonate formation wherein a two stage high energy impulse device is utilized in combination with a retarded acid. Upon placement of such device within a wellbore, the first impulse stage activates said acid. Afterwards, the second impulse stage fractures the formation and forces the activated acid into the created fractures thereby enhancing acid contact with said formation.
