Formic acid can be used in place of, or in conjunction with, hydrochloric acid for both matrix and fracture acidizing. It is typically used in deep wells where downhole temperatures exceed 280°F or that have high levels of asphaltenes. Formic acid is also used to limit equipment corrosion caused by hydrochloric acids.

Hawkins can custom-blend formic acid and hydrochloric acid for specific well-drilling and production stimulation applications.
