Hydrocarbon Dynamics Limited Receives A Repeat Order from One of its New Distributors in Western Canada Associated with A Trial in Alberta Hydrocarbon Dynamics Limited announced that it has received a repeat order from one of its new distributors in Western Canada associated with a trial in Alberta. The pilot is with a midcap Canadian oil and gas producer that wanted to remediate and inhibit paraffin deposition issues plaguing wells and flowlines by using HCD Multi-Flow®. The trial was expanded in late July after positive results on a total of 15 wells. The distributor has reported the following results for the project: Production increased an average of ~13% across all wells, operating cost reduction projected to be >$0.50/BOE, significant reduction in quantity of chemical used (250ppm vs. ~1,250ppm), hot oiling has not been needed since Multi-Flow® applied, extended the time between solvent soaks, reduced frequency of pigging - `pigs have never looked cleaner and ceased need for demulsifier. The distributor has placed an order for a further ~A$80,000 of product, largely to continue treatment at the project discussed above. Continued success will improve the likelihood of both ongoing sales for this application as well as securing trials and sales to this producer in a larger producing field.
