Abstract

A pumping schedule for stimulating a well can be dynamically optimized. For example, a layer in a well can be determined to have a highest value for a characteristic. The layer can be assigned as a first layer in an ordered list. A pump rate and type of fluid to pump into the wellbore for reducing an amount of blockage to below a threshold value can be determined based on a feature of the first layer. The blockage can reduce a flow of a production fluid from the first layer into the wellbore. Changes to values for the characteristics of layers in the well resulting from pumping the fluid can be determined. Another layer in the well can be determined to have the highest value for the characteristic as a result of pumping the fluid into the wellbore and can be assigned as the first layer in the ordered list.
