Field and Laboratory studies of microbial/fines plugging of water injection wells: Mechanism, diagnosis and removal☆

Abstract During a program to improve injection into water injection wells in the East Beverly Hills and San Vicente fields, some empirical observations were made about plugging. Laboratory studies were performed that provided explanations about the nature and formation of microbial/fines plugging and its removal. It is demonstrated that the proper sequence of treatment is bleach first to degrade the organic coating, then the acid to dissolve the inorganic particulates.
