A nanobubbles solution for stimulating an oil well, wherein the nanobubbles solution is prepared by:
- mixing an acid into a base fluid to form an acid solution;
- adding a surfactant to the acid solution to form an acid/surfactant solution;
- adding a corrosion inhibitor to the acid/surfactant solution to form a stimulation fluid;
- generating nano-sized bubbles in the stimulation fluid by a nanobubble generator to form a nanobubbles solution, wherein the nanobubbles solution comprises nano-sized bubbles and has a viscosity as that of the base fluid.
