Abstract
A method for cleaning and stimulating an oil, gas or injection well, in which wax, tar and/or bituminous materials are either already deposited or would be precipitated by the injection of an acidizing solution consisting of a mixture of an octanol and a lower alcohol with an aqueous acid solution, involving the injection of an aromatic solvent either before and/or after the alcohol-acidizing solution. To enhance the interfacial miscibility of the aromatic solvent and the alcohol-acidizing solution, a small amount of amine having no more than eight carbon atoms may be added to the aromatic solvent. This method is useful in both production and injection wells.
