Wavefront Corporate Update
2019年4月3日 - 7:52AM
Wavefront Technology Solutions Inc. (Wavefront or the Company,
TSX-V: WEE; OTCQX: WFTSF), a global leader in the advancement of
fluid injection technology for oil and gas well stimulation and
Improved/Enhanced Oil (“IOR/EOR”) Recovery, is pleased to provide
this update on the Company’s activities.
Recently, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Wavefront’s Powerwave Odyssey tool was applied to a new application
coinciding with a traditional acid stimulation. The application is
related to extended reach wells and the function of the Odyssey as
a coiled tubing “agitator” as well as a stimulation tool. Extended
reach wells are wells where the horizontal leg of the well extends
for distances that are generally two times longer than the vertical
depth. In many instances frictional issues prevent the coiled
tubing from reaching the total measured depth of the well without
the aid of significant friction reduction. Friction reduction is
often accomplished by some form of agitation where axial
oscillations of the coiled tubing reduces downhole friction
allowing the coiled tubing to be run deeper into the well. In its
initial application the Powerwave Odyssey was able to successfully
reduce the coiled tubing friction factor from 0.4 to 0.15 thus
allowing the coiled tubing to reach the wells total measured depth
of 13,500 ft. The result is comparable to competitive agitators
however the main competitive benefit of the Odyssey as an agitator
is that it allows for multiple runs into the horizontal section
whereas the leading agitators allow for only one run. From a
financial perspective Wavefront’s local distributors in the Middle
East will be able to apply a premium charge associated with the
Powerwave Odyssey’s use as an agitator where competitive tools are
charged out in excess of $30,000 per well.
In addition to the use of the Powerwave Odyssey
as an agitator and acid stimulation tool Wavefront is also entering
the market of multi-lateral wells with the incorporation of a
specialty multi-lateral tool system into the Odyssey protocol.
Multi-lateral wells are becoming more prevalent in the Middle East
as they increase reservoir drainage area and minimize the surface
footprint. Until now Powerwave has been limited to the main bore
however with the incorporation of the multi-lateral tool system all
laterals will have the potential to be stimulated. The addition of
the multi-lateral tool system will also allow Wavefront’s local
distributors in the Middle East to apply a premium charge where
competitive multi-lateral tool systems are charged out at
approximately $15,000 per well.
Through its distribution network Wavefront
continues to see opportunity for its suite of technologies. A new
order to evaluate the utility of Wavefront drilling tools to
optimize drilling operations was received for Iraq. Under the terms
of the purchase order financial details cannot be released. Iraq is
OPEC’s second largest oil producer and this opening order for
drilling tools is the entry point for the Company’s Powerwave line
of well stimulation offerings. Wavefront is working with its local
distributor to secure initial Powerwave field applications and have
targeted the third calendar quarter for implementation.
“Wavefront is very excited about the new
opportunities associated with Powerwave that will help unlock the
full promise of a reservoir for a client while at the same time
providing the Company with new revenue generating opportunity,”
said Wavefront President and CEO Brett Davidson. “We will continue
to seek new applications for current Wavefront technology as well
as introduce new tools and techniques to broaden potential future
growth, as well as address the growing needs of the Company’s
distributors and technology end users.”
