Acidizing improves geothermal reservoir productivity by dissolving rocks to increase formation permeability, which is achieved by injecting acid fluids into reservoir formations. However, conventional acid fluids either can not achieve effective acidizing or cause geothermal reservoir damages. Foam acid fluids, which have been applied for oil-gas reservoir stimulation, can realize effective acidizing by retarding acid-rock reactions, and can protect reservoirs. Here, a foam acid fluid system is proposed, aiming at achieving efficient acidizing and reservoir protection in low-temperature dolomite geothermal reservoirs. Formic acid (FA) and acetic acid (HAc) are used to replace a portion of hydrochloride (HCl) acid. Alkyl glycine surfactant AGS-12 is added for foaming, while xanthan gum and nano silica particles are used to stabilize foams. Corrosion inhibitor and ferric ion stabilizer are added to inhibit acid corrosion of steel and ferric ion precipitations. The acidizing effect was evaluated through foam stability, dissolution performance, corrosion inhibition performance, and compatibility. Microscopic observation, field emission scanning electron microscope, and numerical simulation were applied to reveal the mechanisms of temporal evolution of foams and acid dissolution behaviors. Results show that the foam acid fluid with 5 wt% FA, 5 wt% HAc and 10 wt% HCl acid has the best foam stability and retardation effect. Compared to non-foam acid fluid, the decrease degree of the cuttings mass change rate in foam acid fluids exceeds 50 %, and foaming primarily retards acid-rock reactions. Simulation results is consistent with the experiment results, demonstrating that the cuttings dissolve less in FA and HAc. Calcium (Ca) content on the cuttings surfaces after acid-rock reactions in foam acid fluids with FA and HAc is less than that after acid-rock reactions in foam acid fluid with sole HCl acid, indicating that FA and HAc inhibit Ca-bearing mineral precipitations, as formate and acetate ions can chelate with Ca2+. The replacement of HCl acid by FA and HAc contributes to a low corrosivity and good compatibility of the foam acid fluids due to a reduced hydrogen ions resulted from partial dissociation of weak acids. This study shows the feasibility of foam acid fluids during geothermal reservoir stimulation with eliminated reservoir damages.
