CALGARY, ALBERTA — (Marketwired) — 07/27/16 — Raise Production Inc. (TSX VENTURE: RPC) (“Raise” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update to its shareholders on recent activities related to the Horizontal Wellbore Production System (the “System”).
The current deployment of the System has been successful in a number of ways including the collection of significant, valuable, and practical knowledge. Since the Company has learned as much as it can from this deployment, as of the end of this month the Company has decided to end the current field trial. Raise believes that the knowledge achieved, when combined with its method-based patents for multi-pump completions, makes the Company ready to begin the final steps toward commercialization. Raise continues to enhance its industry leading position in horizontal artificial lift technology.
This deployment has confirmed the following information:
Over the next 30 to 60 days, the Company will continue to analyze the information collected, and strategize over which modifications to the System will be selected for the next deployment. At this time, the Company believes the System has proven to be robust enough to target substantially higher production wells. This will require electronic activation to enable much faster cycle times.
Eric Laing, President and CEO, is quoted as saying “It has become apparent that we have built a robust and reliable system. It is unique to the industry and functions even better than we had envisioned. However, the current activation system will need to be altered. We have much of the preliminary work done on the electronic activation in anticipation of this need for deeper longer well bores and we believe that this can be accelerated quite quickly. We have our patent in place covering multiple pumps in the horizontal wellbore. We have pumps that work together in series like we want them to in the horizontal section. I–m optimistic that we will be able to adapt the current System to utilize electronic activation that will enable commerciality. This step will allow Raise to move our technology forward for the betterment of the industry, employees and our shareholders.”
