Improve Recovery Performance
Even small improvements in recovery performance can have a significant impact on project economics.
We help organizations evaluate technologies and operating strategies that increase production, improve reservoir sweep efficiency, and maximize recovery from existing assets. Whether the focus is solvent-assisted processes, waterflooding, polymer flooding, or other recovery approaches, our work helps identify opportunities to improve performance and better understand how technologies behave under different operating conditions.
Reduce Costs and Environmental Impacts
Operators are increasingly seeking ways to reduce steam requirements, improve solvent utilization, lower emissions, and decrease water consumption while maintaining production performance.
We help clients assess technologies and process improvements that reduce energy and resource intensity, supporting both economic and environmental objectives. This includes evaluating opportunities to reduce steam generation requirements, improve solvent efficiency, and enhance overall process performance.
Evaluate Emerging Recovery Technologies
New technologies often require rigorous assessment before field implementation.
Whether you are developing a new recovery concept, evaluating an enabling technology, or comparing alternative approaches, we help generate the technical evidence needed to support development decisions. Our testing, modelling, and evaluation capabilities help organizations understand performance, identify limitations, and assess deployment risks before committing to larger-scale investments.
Examples include:
- Alternative solvent systems designed to reduce steam requirements
- Chemical enhanced oil recovery approaches such as polymer flooding and waterflooding
- Emerging recovery concepts aimed at improving production while reducing energy use and environmental impacts
Move Technologies from Concept to Deployment
Transitioning from laboratory testing to field implementation can be one of the most challenging stages of technology development.
Whether you are evaluating a new solvent-assisted recovery approach, assessing an enhanced oil recovery strategy, or developing a next-generation recovery technology, InnoTech Alberta helps bridge the gap between concept and implementation.
Our team helps organizations:
- Validate technology performance under representative operating conditions
- Generate technical data to support investment and deployment decisions
- Assess technical risks and identify opportunities for optimization
- Build confidence in performance predictions before larger-scale implementation
By combining laboratory experimentation, reservoir simulation, field-oriented evaluation, and industry collaboration, we help clients move technologies toward deployment with greater confidence and reduced uncertainty.
