CatChek™: Maximize Your Unconventional Well Production with Advanced Optimization
Unlock the full potential of your unconventional oil and gas wells with CatChek™ – a high-performance, multi-functional solution engineered for superior production and enhanced oil recovery.
CatChek™ delivers sustained
improvements in well performance,
reduces costs, and increases
profitability. It’s the ultimate solution
to maximize well productivity while
minimizing environmental impact.
Why Choose CatChek™ for Unconventional Well Optimization?
At SciDev, we understand the complexities of unconventional reservoirs. CatChek™ is specifically designed to address these challenges head-on, offering a powerful combination of benefits that translate directly to increased production and improved economics:
Superior Shale Inhibition & Wellbore Stability: CatChek™ is a multi-functional enhanced shale inhibitor. It actively stabilizes the shale formation by preventing pyrite oxidation, minimizing fines migration, and retaining cations within the formation. This dual-action approach reduces wellbore instability, enabling optimal well stimulation and sustaining production over the long term.
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR): Beyond exceptional shale inhibition, CatChek™ significantly lowers interfacial tension, effectively mobilizing trapped oil and dramatically improving flow through the proppant pack. Powered by a proprietary blend of advanced EOR surfactants, this unique formulation increases oil recovery rates, leading to higher revenue and extended field life.
Comprehensive Well Protection: CatChek™ goes beyond EOR and shale inhibition. Its multi-functional formula aids in scale inhibition to prevent costly mineral deposits that can hinder production while acting as a robust biocide protecting against microbial growth and its associated issues.
Environmentally Responsible Solution: CatChek™ is designed to help operators achieve increased production rates while minimizing environmental impact, aligning with responsible energy development practices.
Increased Production
Wells using CatChek™
technology deliver 51% higher
BOE production rates at three
months and an average of
42% higher over one year than
wells without CatChek™.
Sustained Performance
CatChek™ sustains improved
production over time, unlike
those without, which plateau
or decline.
Maximized Return on Investment
CatChek™ boosts well
performance and maximizes
returns, driving profitability for
your operations.
CatChek™ for Clay/ Fine Control
Fine Control
CatChek™ 12S
a specialized additive designed to maximize proppant placement and minimize formation damage during hydraulic fracturing. Its unique chemistry ensures optimal interaction with proppant and formation solids, leading to enhanced permeability and increased well productivity.
Fine Control for Wet Sand
CatChek™ 15
effectively stabilizes clay fines in unstable shale formations, a common issue in Gulf Coast wells. By coating proppant and formation surfaces during fracturing, it prevents fines migration and improves conductivity, resulting in sustained production.
Fine Control for Wet Sand (Winterized Version)
CatChek™ 157
an enhanced version of our clay control technology, formulated for clay-rich and high-paraffin reservoirs. Its winterized formula ensures consistent performance in varying temperatures, while its advanced additives effectively manage wet sand and paraffin issues.
Fine Control and Water Control
CatChek™ 300
leverages patented technology to create a unique protective structure on formation surfaces. This advanced solution effectively controls fines migration, enhances permeability, and optimizes water management, leading to significant production improvements in complex reservoirs.
