Decarbonizing Oil Production

ISUT technology harnesses a unique nanocatalyst to decarbonize oil directly in the reservoir:

  • Minimizes Emissions: By upgrading oil in situ, ISUT reduces the need for traditional above-ground processing, leading to lower emissions and enhanced operational efficiency.
  • Innovative Nanocatalyst Design: The nanocatalyst binds to sand grains, creating a stable catalyst bed that efficiently reacts with injected gases, improving oil recovery.
  • In-Reservoir Upgrading: Enhances oil quality by initiating catalytic upgrading below ground, cutting greenhouse gas emissions at the source.
