Additional f 'oxygen or air may be supplied through'pipea stood from the Afollowing descri tion o f its In general, soon after the reagents are rom an oil placed in the Well a removable packer is set 80 'at approximately the top of the oil sand to dump bailer or otherwise. Hydro'chloric ble paraliin. as accumulated on the Walls of 'y .I hacid o r nitricacid is preferred to sulfuric acid, the well, it may be desirable to bail out thel to' remove calcite sufficiently for the entrance` he pressure generated below the packer, as i of the oil sand. This may be done by mainwardly into .the oil sand where it is dissolved or examinto the sand so that it may act upon any u).
ca'lcite or'other deposits whichY cement the t. lsand grains together. Paraiiin,.asphaltoxi dized or saponxtied oil, and other obstructing carbonaceousdeposits, are melted by the heat of reaction. The violent agitation ofthe reaction mass by boiling and escape of gas exerts lngreagent is dum a washing action n thewall of the well.l
`^ 'Vhen the reaction mass'begins to cool, the
packer is removed and the well is bailed'or pumped while thefluids in it are still at a temperature above that at which paran congeals. Bailin should be from the bottom of the well so 'iat all the dislodged obstructing materials are removed. Pumping is then 1 5 started as soon as possible, suction being taken-near the bottom of the well so as to prevent the development. of back pressure by the accumulation of a fluid column."l Since the acid is neutralized or almost neutralized by reaction with theladded chemicals or the calcite, etc., there is no substantial corrosion of the equipment. If the rimary purpose is to generate heat, the aci and gas-forming material may be used in chemically equiva-z lent amounts. If calcite or the like is to be dissolved to increase the porosity of the sand,
acid should be used in excess. A v
The use of' a packer is lgenerally -very advantageous. However, it may sometimes be I I' Y 30 omitted, for example, during the firstI of a series'- of treatments when it is necessary to treat tl-ie well lseveral times in" the mannerdescribed for the removal of very resistant obstructions.

The iuid in the Well is hailed down as far as may he practicable, and a quantity of acid of suicient 'strength to 50. attack the 'carbonatedeposits on and wiu'iin vthe wall rocks, is introduced.
