An improved method for reducing fluid loss during high pressure hydraulic fracturing of well formations using an aqueous foam involving adding to the foam from about 0.0005 to 0.5% by weight of an additive selected from the group consisting of a C5 to C10 unsubstituted monocarboxylic aliphatic acid, a C5 to C10 unsubstituted aliphatic alcohol, malonic acid, lower n-alkyl diesters of malonic acid and their mixtures. The new additives are shown to be as effective in reducing fluid loss during fracturing as the commercial practice employing hydroxy ethyl cellulose at a fraction of the cost of hydroxy ethyl cellulose without depositing polymer within the formation.
