Shouldbe, swabbing allows formation liquids to flow into the casing after perfing the casing and acid stimulation.

Swabbing is when the rig pulls up on a upside down potty plunger that seals against the inside of the casing to lift all fluids to the surface.

The first time its done the drilling fluids are mostly removed. The next several times its done removes any remaining drilling fluids and the completion fluids, which are any remaining acid and the water the acid produces when reacting with the rock. By about the 3rd swabb you really want to see oil.

Swabbing has been done on the Mohillia Triassic, which appears to be non-commercial. It has not been reported done yet on the 5 remaining zones to be tested which for sure some are in the Jurassic, and some maybe in the Cretaceous.
