Presenting Companies

In a format similar to that of a venture capital fair, the following selected suppliers will deliver an 8-minute presentation followed by a 2-minute Q&A session.

Ambyint

Chris Robart
Chief Commercial Officer, Ambyint

Ambyint InfinityPL™ is a user-friendly, cloud-based software designed to optimize plunger lift wells for operations and engineering teams. By integrating advanced wellbore physics modeling with anomaly detection and numerical optimization, InfinityPL analyzes each cycle, interval, and production stream daily to identify risks and opportunities for production enhancement.

Leveraging an E&P company’s existing SCADA infrastructure, InfinityPL delivers actionable insights through a customizable, intuitive dashboard. This enables early detection of issues in high-producing plunger wells, allowing for immediate triage and remediation. For in-depth analysis, the software’s innovative cycle keyboard facilitates faster navigation through cycle data compared to other market solutions.

InfinityPL empowers teams to save time, quickly uncover issues, and restore wells to optimal performance, ultimately boosting production. E&P companies can achieve production increases of up to 7%, while operating under a lower cost structure, thereby enhancing bottom-line performance across their entire asset portfolio. By improving efficiency and production outcomes, InfinityPL proves to be a valuable tool for maximizing the potential of plunger lift wells.

DarkVision Technologies

Northeast Sales Director, DarkVision Technologies

DarkVision’s proprietary technology captures the world’s largest ultrasound datasets by orders of magnitude. Designed and built in-house to capture the highest quality volumetric data in the world, our arrays are optimized in various geometries to unlock proprietary full-waveform-based imaging modes and techniques. In addition to its high-resolution nature, the technology is highly adaptable as it can see through any fluid.

Our downhole tool (HADES) can be used in a variety of applications, including to measure:

• Well integrity – DarkVision can determine the condition of the wellhead as well as the tubing and casing, including seeing corrosion, breaches, and wellhead erosion. In addition to the inner diameter, the tool can “see through the steel” to identify deformations on the backside or OD of the casing.
• Completions optimization – DarkVision helps operators understand their completions performance by scanning perfs to volumetrically determine proppant erosion and outflow using an entry and exit hole analysis. Lastly, the tool is also able to identify where plugs have failed, helping to inform the root cause behind such failures and improve completions designs.
• Obstructions – DarkVision’s forward facing tool can identify the geometry of blockages, as well as parted casing and milling damage.

Fluid Conservation Systems

Beth Powell
President, Fluid Conservation Systems

Combining high-performance hydrophones and pressure transducers with cellular telemetry can create a continuous monitoring system for sensitive produced water pipelines. Leaks are calculated using a proven algorithm while sound files are captured and used to determine leak location The leak data and pressure levels can be logged every 30 seconds and transmitted with automated alerts. This reduces the requirement for expensive pipeline walks. The hydrophone monitors noise and will auto-alarm when profile or threshold alarm levels are reached. High and low pressure, as well as pressure transients, can also be monitored and alarmed. The system works in conjunction with Google Maps to provide live on-screen tracking, allowing environmental teams to respond quickly to leaks and bring them under control efficiently.

Opgal Optronics

Chief Innovation Scientist, Opgal Optronics

The EyeCGas 24/7 Pro Fixed OGI system, a site level advanced methane continuous emission monitoring solution.

This multi spectral band system eliminates false and alarms provides calibrated concentration-length (CL) values along each of the open path beams (each pixel in the image). EyeCGas 24/7 Pro quantifies mass emission rate of the detected emissions event using meteorological and CL data.

The system monitors the fence-line and can operate as a OGI camera for visualizing the plume and pinpointing the emission source. It operates as OGI also when the metrological conditions are not favorable for fence line monitoring.

EyeCGas 24/7 Pro is mounted on a motorized pan & tilt mechanism, which provides the ability for wide coverage. It has a dedicated management software, with real time site level alerts and triangulation analysis.

Sommer Energy Technologies & Advanced Cooling Technologies

Mark Sommer
Principal, Sommer Energy Technologies

Advanced Cooling Technologies (ACT) has developed an innovative ‘Swiss-roll combustor’ that effectively recuperates the heat from combustion products to fully combust the flare/waste/vent gas over a wide range of flow rates and concentrations. ACT’s design comprises a spiral heat exchanger surrounding the incinerator, which effectively minimizes the heat losses from products of combustion, combustor wall convection, and radiation. The excess enthalpy in the reactants significantly extends the range of flammable mixtures to provide complete methane destruction. The Swiss roll combustor is fabricated using a novel 3D printing method to produce a large-scale ceramic-metal composite that withstands temperatures over 2500ºF. The Laboratory tests have demonstrated > 99.5% methane and VOC destruction efficiency for gases of various composition. Field tests are underway in MI and OK to demonstrate scalability and field performance.
