Solvay, your preferred partner for stimulation additives
Stimulation is key to maximizing reservoir production in shale gas or tight oil basins. The most frequently used stimulation techniques are hydraulic fracturing - which can be accomplished using gelled fluid and slickwater systems - and matrix acidizing. Solvay's broad offer in stimulation is able to meet the needs of almost any well and ensure performance, efficiency and optimal recovery.
