Thickened fracturing and acidizing fluids suitable for well treatment are prepared by adding certain amine salts to aqueous acid or salt solutions. The amines from which the amine salts are prepared are alkoxylated alkyl- or alkenylamines in which an alkyl or alkenyl group contains at least about 14 and preferably about 14-30 carbon atoms. Most often the alkyl or alkenyl group is oleyl, stearyl, or a mixture of groups derived from such fats as tallow or soybean oil. The especially preferred amines are the "Ethomeens" which are ethoxylated fatty amines.
