  • Patent number: 11187051
    Abstract: An acid spearhead formulation for mineral scale reduction that includes a sulfuric acid solution having an acidity that is substantially equivalent to a hydrochloric acid solution in an acid spearhead formulation, a sodium citrate compound, where an acid spearhead formulation for mineral scale reduction is formed, the acid spearhead formulation is disposed in a well bore to stabilize mineral scales, the acid spearhead formulation is disposed in the well bore to chelate solubilized calcium in a rock bed of the well bore, and the well bore includes a temporal thermodynamic subsurface barite cycling having a subsurface barite dissolution temporal phase, a subsurface barite transport to fractures temporal phase, a subsurface barite precipitation to fracture temporal phase and a subsurface barite dissolution to fracture space temporal phase, where the acid spearhead formulation for mineral scale reduction reacts with the well bore within the subsurface barite dissolution temporal phase.
