Release
Unlock trapped production — correct formation damage and increase well flow rates.
What Is
Release?
RELEASE is a product used in producing wells to increase production flow rates. It is engineered to address one of the most persistent challenges in well production — formation damage — by penetrating the formation and freeing restricted flow pathways.
The product can be used in a batch process, or through continuous injection, either via a CTS or strictly by adding the product on a frequent basis to a "pot" dump mechanism often used in the pumpjack system. This flexibility makes RELEASE adaptable to a wide range of field conditions and operational preferences.
RELEASE will assist in correcting formation damage due to paraffin and/or asphaltene. Formation damage may not always be caused by higher molecular weight hydrocarbon chained molecules — however, RELEASE will many times release the hydrocarbon trapped within the formation and produce an increase in flow rate.

Application
The Release
Advantage
Increases Production Flow Rates
Designed specifically for producing wells, RELEASE helps restore and increase flow rates by addressing formation damage at the source.
Corrects Paraffin & Asphaltene Damage
Targets formation damage caused by paraffin and asphaltene deposits — two of the most common causes of reduced well productivity.
Releases Trapped Hydrocarbons
Even when formation damage is not caused by high molecular weight hydrocarbon chains, RELEASE will many times release hydrocarbons trapped within the formation.
Flexible Application Methods
Can be applied via batch process, continuous injection through a CTS, or by frequent addition to a pot dump mechanism used in pumpjack systems.
Application
Methods
Batch Process
A concentrated treatment applied periodically to address accumulated formation damage and restore flow rates in a single treatment cycle.
Continuous Injection via CTS
Steady, low-rate injection through a Chemical Treatment System for ongoing formation maintenance and sustained production improvement.
Pot Dump Mechanism
Frequent addition of RELEASE to the pot dump mechanism commonly used in pumpjack systems — a simple, field-proven delivery method.
Formation Damage
Kills Production
Formation damage is one of the leading causes of reduced well productivity. Paraffin and asphaltene deposits restrict flow pathways within the formation, choking production and increasing lifting costs over time.
Paraffin deposits: Waxy solids that precipitate from crude oil as temperature drops, coating tubing walls and plugging perforations to restrict flow.
Asphaltene deposits: Heavy, tar-like molecules that flocculate and deposit within the formation and wellbore, causing severe and often difficult-to-treat damage.
Unknown damage causes: Even when the root cause is unclear, RELEASE has proven effective at releasing trapped hydrocarbons and restoring flow rates.
