Degradable diversion acid system released

Schlumberger recently announced the release of its new MaxCO3 Acid degradable diversion acid system. This new polymer-free, non-damaging acidising system can be used for both matrix and fracture stimulation in carbonate reservoirs with permeability contrasts or natural fractures.chlumberger recently announced the release of its new MaxCO3 Acid degradable diversion acid system.

Oil ID instrument announced

SAUDI ARAMCO HAS announced that its research and development centre has built a truly unique instrument designed to identify oil by using a laser. The laser is used to excite the fluorescence spectra of oil within extremely short time frames — two to five nanoseconds. All the fluorescence data is coalesced, and two dimensional diagrams are produced. These act as oil spectral fingerprints.
