Patent abstract
A method is described for treating a subterranean formation with a low viscosity fluid system that contains a viscoelastic surfactant at a concentration too low to viscosify the fluid, but that is concentrated in the formation so that the fluid system gels. The fluid also contains a formation-dissolving agent. The fluid is used in acidizing, acid fracturing, and diversion.
