Matrix acidizing plays an important role in improving oil recovery by decreasing reservoir damage. However, the complexity of selecting the most suitable acidizing fluid, given diverse reservoir conditions, poses a significant challenge. This article explores the utilization of expert systems in improving the acidizing fluid selection process. By examining the role, components, and merits of expert systems, along with real-world case studies, the article highlights how these systems contribute to more efficient and informed decision-making. In this investigation, eight instances of damage have been selected for analysis using the proposed expert system. Following a thorough assessment, selecting a fluid for damage elimination, demonstrates the effectiveness of the expert system. The incorporation of expert systems in modeling and inference under conditions of high uncertainty and precision plays a key role in increasing productivity, declining errors, predicting events, and refining decision-making processes. These systems utilize advanced algorithms and mathematical models for simulation and predicting implications across various applications, thereby aiding in expedited decision-making.
