Abstract: Organic Oil Recovery is a tertiary oil recovery process that only stimulates certain resident microbes that already exist in your reservoir to release residual, bypassed and trapped oil — without chemicals, downhole modifications, topside changes, or capex. By feeding the microbes a specific targeted nutrient blend, we activate a gene in the target microbial… Read More »SPE Denver General Meeting: December 2025
Event description Abstract: The fracturing fluids not only plays a pivotal role in near-wellbore stimulation, influencing proppant transport, and cluster efficiency, but is critical to minimizing formation damage and maximizing oil recovery. While friction reduction has traditionally guided fluid selection, this study shifts the focus toward subsurface performance metrics that directly impact hydrocarbon… Read More »SPE Denver General Meeting: January 2026
