Technology Innovations
Hardware:
- Pulse8: Wireless communication technology that is reusable and not deployed with original casing
Fluid Chemistry
- Oil based: Surfactants, nano-dispersions, and relative permeability modifiers are typically engineered to be water based so that they can be pumped during the fracturing treatment. This aqueous feature can potentially impact the ability of these additives to access parts of nano-sized rock matrix in shale formations that are predominately oil or mixed oil/water wet. This results in the oil being trapped and left behind in the nano-sized matrix during initial completions.
- Controlled molecular weight: The oil based surface modifier has been optimized to be able to access the nano-network but still maintain high performance efficacy in adhering to the rock surface.
- Surface Modification: The oil based surface modifier contains a unique binder that adheres to the rock surfaces, allowing oil flow back to be significantly enhanced and more readily recoverable.
