Traditional cyclic steam stimulation methods face significant operational limitations, including restricted heating radii and low oil recovery rates. These limitations are often exacerbated by high interfacial tension, which traps immobile oil within reservoirs, greatly restricting cumulative oil production. Synergetic's Enercat™ technology directly addresses these challenges by effectively reducing interfacial tension, thereby significantly enhancing oil mobility and boosting overall recovery efficiency.
Core Issue

Problem

Mid-Continent SWD facilities regularly encountered persistent oil-in-water carryover, challenging emulsion pads in gun barrels, and solids deposition in injection wells. These issues collectively reduced injectivity, caused frequent downtime, and increased maintenance and operational costs, negatively impacting overall profitability.
Solution & Results
Synergetic deployed the Avenger RPT Tool, strategically installed in critical areas such as gun barrels and injection wells. Utilizing resonance frequency technology, the Avenger tool effectively altered interfacial tension, preventing solids and emulsion formation. This proactive approach facilitated improved fluid separation, eliminated emulsion pads, and significantly enhanced injectivity and operational efficiency.
Optimized Separation Performance
Achieved 100% elimination of oil-in-water carryover and emulsion pads, dramatically improving oil-water separation and recovery.
Reduced Maintenance Burden
Significant reductions in solids and paraffin deposits extended maintenance intervals and reduced intervention frequency.
Boosted Operational Output & Revenue
Enhanced injectivity allowed higher throughput, directly contributing to increased oil sales and revenue.
