Energy application
CO₂ Containment
Form deep mineral barriers across connected fractures and high-permeability leakoff pathways.
Application focus
Keep injected CO₂ in the intended reservoir volume.
Cyclic gas, WAG and CO₂ injection programs can lose injected volume through connected fractures and high-permeability pathways into offsets or unproductive rock. Workarounds that reduce pressure or shut in offset wells can limit recovery and add operating complexity.
BioSqueeze fluids enter the connected leakoff network and form impermeable limestone barriers within it. Treatment progress is reflected in the injection response, providing a field signal for tuning the permeability reduction to the operating objective.

Designed around the connected pathway.
Every program begins with the treatment objective, available diagnostics, access geometry, injectivity and the performance signal that will define success.
