Save the World Air, Inc. (ZERO) Commercializing Patented Crude Oil Viscosity Reduction Technology to Optimize Performance of Global Pipeline Infrastructure
As North American oil and gas production continues its record growth, designing and installing new pipeline infrastructure to transport these unprecedented levels of upstream output is proving to be a challenge. Permitting delays, legislative largesse and magnified public scrutiny are slowing a much needed build-out of takeaway capacity in regions of booming production throughout the continent. To help alleviate the industry’s crude oil transportation challenges, Save the World Air, Inc. (“STWA”) (OTCQX: ZERO) is commercializing Applied Oil Technology (AOT™), a field-tested technology proven effective in delivering performance gains in the movement of crude oil through existing pipeline infrastructures.
AOT is a patent-protected, 100% solid-state system that reduces the viscosity of oil by applying a high intensity electrical field to the feedstock, allowing pipelines to operate at a lower pressure and transport crude oil more efficiently. By causing particulate matter such as paraffins, asphaltene and other impurities within crude oil to clump together, AOT decreases drag resistance, speeding the flow of oil and increasing takeaway capacity.
STWA recently announced its plan to commence testing of AOT in collaboration with a major midstream operator on a primary crude and condensate pipeline serving the Eagle Ford Formation in South Texas. Independent analysis of the deployment will be conducted by ATS RheoSystems to measure the system’s efficacy in increasing the pipeline’s flow rate, lowering of pipeline operating pressure and reduction of pump station power consumption.
“Clearly this is an important milestone in the commercialization of the industry’s first solid state technology that harnesses electricity to lower viscosity and improve the flow of a broad range of grades of crude oil,” stated Greggory Bigger, CEO and Chairman of STWA. “The exponential growth in U.S. condensate production is contributing significantly to the energy industry’s pipeline capacity challenges, creating the potential for an immense, long-term market for AOT.”
According to Mr. Bigger, due to recent downward pressure on oil prices globally, exploration and production companies and pipeline operators are increasingly focused on improving efficiencies and driving down operational costs. He points out that industry trade groups agree that the push to reduce overhead will help companies weather the price squeeze and make the industry healthier in the long run.
“Studies by multiple industry and government sources have found that pipelines are, by far, the safest and most economical method to move crude,” Mr. Bigger commented. “With record levels of crude oil projected to be flowing through the nation’s pipelines for years to come and tighter margins in the upstream and midstream sectors driving a renewed focus on reducing overhead, we’re delighted STWA is well positioned to help the industry do accomplish both more efficiently with our AOT system.”
