ABSTRACT: -Formation damage canincurconsiderable cost for remediation and deferred production. Thorough understanding of the formation damage mechanisms, stringent measures for its control and prevention, and effective and efficient treatments are the keys for optimum production strategies for oil and gas fields. WELL 4X was investigated in this study to properly diagnosed and evaluate productivity in OREDO FIELD and Bottom Hole Pressure survey was used from Bottom Hole Pressure analysis in addition to the information of the well production history and reservoir data available to determine and assess the extent of the formation damage in the well. The WELL 4X was stimulated using Acid Foam Diversion Techniques to enhance reservoir productivity and increase economic operations. The stimulation job done on the well showed a peak increase of production from 850 bbl/day to 3200 b/d before it declined to 2150 bbl/day, and finally maintained an average stabilized rate of 2000 bbl/day. It has to be established that the treatment method on WELL 4X using Acid Foam Diversion Techniques and the Bottom Hole Pressure survey conducted on the WELL 4X in OREDO FIELD is found to be efficient in the determination and evaluation of formation damage. KEYWORDS: - (Bottom Hole Pressure, Formation Damage, Permeability, Stimulation, Well 4X) I. INTRODUCTION Producing formation damage is the impairment to reservoir (reduced productivity) caused by wellbore fluids used during drilling/completion and workover operations. It is a zone of reduced permeability within the vicinity of the wellbore (skin) as a result of alien-fluid invasion into the reservoir rock(Dake, 1978). This reduced production results in an indeterminate reduction of the efficient exploitation of hydrocarbon reservoirs. The situation is both undesirable economically and operationally, hence, it is considered as a difficult problem to the oil and gas industry(Leontaritis et al., 1994). As a result conducting an in-depth analysis of the producing formation to customize a fluid specific in OREDO FIELD that will help minimize formation damage and thus increase production rate is of paramount interest to the general economics of the field.As expressed by Amaefule et al., 1988, “Formation damage is an expensive headache to the oil and gas industry.” Bennion,1999 described formation damage as, “The impairment of the invisible, by the inevitable and uncontrollable, resulting in an indeterminate reduction of the unquantifiable!” Formation damage assessment, control, and remediation are among the most important issues to be resolved for efficient exploitation of hydrocarbon reservoirs (Civan, 2005).Formation damage does not occur naturally. It is caused by physio-chemical, chemical, biological, hydrodynamic and thermal interactions of porous formation, particles, and fluids and mechanical deformation of formation under stress and fluid shear. Fluids introduced into the formation during various operations carried out to bring a well on stream and also during the life of the well have the potential of reducing the well permeability and impairing productivity. Formation damage can occur due to any one of the following physical or chemical interaction between invading liquid phase and the reservoir rock constituents. This problem leads mainly to potential clay swelling, wettability alteration and potential water blocking.Formation damage indicators include permeability impairment, skin damage, and decrease of well performance. As stated by (Civan, 2000), “Formation damage is not necessarily reversible” and “What gets into porous media does not necessarily come out.” Beadie, 1995 called this phenomenon “the reverse funnel effect.” Therefore, it is better to avoid formation damage than to try to restore it. www.ajer.org Page 1 American Journal of Engineering Research (AJER) 2015 A verified formation damage model and carefully planned laboratory and field tests can provide scientific guidance and help develop strategies to avoid or minimize formation damage. Properly designed experimental and analytical techniques, and the modeling and simulation approaches can help understanding diagnosis,
