Foamed acidizing fluids, additives and methods of acidizing subterranean zones

摘要

The present invention provides environmentally safe foamed acidizing fluids for acidizing subterranean zones, additives for foaming and stabilizing foamed acidizing fluids and methods of acidizing subterranean zones. The foamed acidizing fluids are basically comprised of an aqueous acid solution, sufficient gas to form a foam and an effective amount of an additive for foaming and stabilizing the aqueous acid solution comprised of hydrolyzed keratin.
