PCT LTD. and Nano Gas? Technologies announced a joint patent-pending technology that has been designed to provide an eco-friendly solution for the oil and gas industry. Testing has been ongoing for many months using PCT Ltd.?s Catholyte only with excellent results reported by an international independent lab located in Houston, Texas. The water to oil ratio (WOR) started out as 99/1 before Catholyte was pumped into the wells. Testing was done using various parameters which increased the WOR to 60/40 on some of the wells. Nano Gas? nanobubbles were added, and a 20% increase was seen at WOR 48/52. Ongoing testing continues, and PCTL/NANO GAS? feels another 20% may be attainable. PCTL/NANO GAS?? new product line is called Nanolyte. The fluids come in two versions: Nano-Catholyte? and Nano-Hydrolyte?. Nano-Hydrolyte?, a biocide, and Nano-Catholyte?, a nanobubble infused alkaline oil, recover fluid with both surface chemistry and wedge effect mechanism for improved oil recover. Both are 100% eco-friendly, green solutions for the oil industry including EOR, fracturing and downhole bacteria control including H2S remediation. Nano-Catholyte? is a combination of Catholyte-free produced by PCTL which reduces the surface tension in the treatment fluid and interfacial tension with the oil within the formation. This coupled with the mechanical effects of the nanobubble (diffusion, wedge effect and fragmentation of oil to reduce viscosity) allowing for the release of oil in the formation as well as penetration throughout the micro sized natural fractures through the formation thus separating the oil from the water and allowing it to flow from the formation to the wellbore where it can be produced, processed and ultimately sold. Nano-Catholyte? makes oil recovery more efficient and subsequently more profitable for operators with no toxic effects to the environment. Another adaptation will be developing Nano-Hydrolyte? which is a combination of Hydrolyte produced by PCTL, an eco-friendly hospital biocide that kills 99.999% of pathogens, and Nano Gas? bubbles which penetrate the smallest fractions and permeability in the formation. Nano-Hydrolyte? makes for a potent biocide for downhole bacteria control, H2S (sour wells) remediation and disinfection of hydraulic fracturing water facilities.
