Aqueous compositions contain hydrochloric acid at a concentration between 8 wt % and 28 wt % inclusive. The amino acid; hydrochloric acid mole ratio may be between 0.2 and 1.5. Sufficient water is present to dissolve the hydrochloric acid and the amino acid. Such compositions have utility as retarders for acid compositions employed in the stimulation of subterranean formations. Slowing the reaction between the acid and formation helps maximize formation permeability and productivity.

1. A method for treating a formation in a subterranean well, comprising: (i) preparing an aqueous composition comprising hydrochloric acid at a concentration between 8 wt % and 28 wt %, inclusive; and at least one amino acid, wherein the amino acid:hydrochloric acid molar ratio is between 0.2 and 1.
1. A method for treating a formation in a subterranean well, comprising: (i) preparing an aqueous composition comprising hydrochloric acid at a concentration between 8 wt % and 28 wt %, inclusive; and at least one amino acid, wherein the amino acid:hydrochloric acid molar ratio is between 0.2 and 1.5, and sufficient water is present to dissolve the hydrochloric acid and the amino acid;(ii) providing an oilfield treatment fluid including the aqueous composition to a high pressure pump capable of pumping fluids at a pressure of at least 500 psi; and(iii) operating the high pressure pump to treat at least one of a wellbore and the formation fluidly coupled to the wellbore,wherein the amino acid comprises alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, histidine, leucine, lysine, methonine, proline, serine, threonine or valine or combinations thereof. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the hydrochloric acid is transported to a wellsite, the acid having a concentration between 28 wt % and 45.7 wt %, and the treatment further comprises diluting the hydrochloric acid to a treatment concentration before providing the oilfield treatment fluid to the high pressure pump. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the aqueous composition further comprises hydrofluoric acid at a concentration higher than or equal to 0.25 wt %. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the composition exhibits an acid retardation factor higher than or equal to 15 at 20° C. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the composition exhibits an acid retardation factor higher than or equal to 15 at 93° C. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein operating the pump comprises injecting the treatment fluid into the formation at matrix rates, and contacting at least one of the wellbore and the formation with the oilfield treatment fluid. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein operating the pump comprises injecting the treatment fluid into the formation at a pressure equal to or greater than the formation fracturing pressure, and contacting at least one of the wellbore and the formation with the oilfield treatment fluid. 8. A method for stimulating a formation in a subterranean well, comprising: (i) preparing an aqueous composition comprising hydrochloric acid at a concentration between 8 wt % and 28 wt %, inclusive; and at least one amino acid, wherein the amino acid:hydrochloric acid molar ratio is between 0.2 and 1.5, and sufficient water is present to dissolve the hydrochloric acid and the amino acid;(ii) providing an oilfield treatment fluid including the aqueous composition to a high pressure pump capable of pumping fluids at a pressure of at least 500 psi; and(iii) operating the high pressure pump to stimulate at least one of a wellbore and the formation fluidly coupled to the wellbore, thereby increasing formation permeability, wherein the amino acid comprises alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, histidine, leucine, lysine, methonine, proline, serine, threonine, valine or combinations thereof. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the hydrochloric acid is transported to a wellsite, the acid having a concentration between 28 wt % and 45.7 wt %, and the treatment further comprises diluting the hydrochloric acid to a treatment concentration before providing the oilfield treatment fluid to the high pressure pump. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein the aqueous composition further comprises hydrofluoric acid at a concentration higher than or equal to 0.25 wt %. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein the composition exhibits an acid retardation factor higher than or equal to 15 at 20° C. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein the composition exhibits an acid retardation factor higher than or equal to 15 at 93° C. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein operating the pump comprises at least one of: (i) injecting the treatment fluid into the formation at matrix rates;(ii) injecting the treatment fluid into the formation at a pressure equal to or greater than the formation fracturing pressure; and(iii) contacting at least one of the wellbore and the formation with the oilfield treatment fluid.
