The bottom line for applying any oil recovery process in the field is the economics. Based on data available to Surtek, the following illustrates the economic potential of the ASP process.
The ASP process works at any stage of field development, from early in the waterflood to mature waterfloods near the end of economic life. The economics below shows profits for waterflood and ASP development and includes additional wells to accelerate the response.
