Abstract

Well stimulation techniques have emerged as indispensable tools in modern energy production, revolutionizing the industry’s ability to access and extract hydrocarbon resources from both conventional and unconventional reservoirs. This abstract provides an overview of the multifaceted role of well stimulation in energy production, exploring its methodologies, benefits, challenges, and future prospects. From hydraulic fracturing in shale formations to acidizing in carbonate reservoirs, stimulation techniques enhance reservoir productivity, maximize resource recovery, and drive economic growth. While facing scrutiny and controversy, well stimulation remains pivotal in meeting global energy demand and shaping the evolving landscape of energy production. As the industry continues to innovate, the role of well stimulation in energy production is poised for further advancement, offering promise for a sustainable and resilient energy future.
