Keep the oil-and the revenue stream-flowing

Conventional chemical treatments and hot oiling are like pain relievers: they only treat symptoms, never addressing the underlying causes of paraffin, scale and emulsions. They also require downtime for your well, which increases your lease operating expenses. Now there's a more effective-and environmentally friendly-alternative: ParagoneM by TerraTech.

ParagoneM is a water-based solution of naturally occurring and regenerating biochemicals specifically formulated to control and remove paraffin, scale, asphaltenes, emulsions and H2S. It reduces BS&W, cake and other flow restrictions in surface lines and production equipment.

ParagoneM is also safer for the environment than conventional well treatment chemicals.

Summary of benefits for ParagoneM - the green solution
•  Robust liquid formulation. 19 species covering short to long chain hydrocarbons
•  Only biochemical in which nutrient is provided independently for explosive population
    growth and viability
•  Contains proprietary biodegradable surfactant to increase the surface area on which the    microbes can work
•  Four species of lactose fermenters break down microbial waste, which reduces biomass
•  Treats paraffin, asphaltenes and emulsions and inhibits corrosion and scale below and    above ground
•  Metabolizes sludge in flow lines, oil/water separators and tanks
•  Environmentally friendly-no hazardous chemical storage
•  Requires no special equipment or wellhead alterations
•  Proven money-saving solution for problem wells

How ParagoneM Metabolizes Paraffin
Administered downhole, ParagoneM disperses into the formation through the natural turbulence caused by pump action. Because it's a microbial agent, it multiplies, feeding on crystallized paraffin molecules. It's been used in wells all over the world with great success.

Above Ground Benefits
ParagoneM also metabolizes paraffin throughout the pumping system, including flow lines, heater treater and storage tanks. It even inhibits the reformation of paraffin deposits.

Emulsion Reduction
Because ParagoneM microbes are primarily concentrated in the oil/water interface, they help break emulsions from production systems early in the process and reduce reverse (water in oil) emulsions.

Increased A.P.I. Gravity of the Oil
By eliminating waxy, long-chain hydrocarbons, ParagoneM reduces the viscosity of the oil, which increases its A.P.I. gravity.

Scale and Corrosion Inhibitor
Administered regularly, ParagoneM's active cultures secrete and deposit a polysaccharide film that coats the surface of tubing, rods, pumps and other well components, which significantly reduces corrosion. As a side-effect of the geochemical alterations ParagoneM causes in formation water, the chemicals that contribute to scale are also reduced.

Product Sweetening
ParagoneM microbes use a sulfur ion as a natural part of their metabolic process, which makes it effective in the reduction of H 2 S. In some cases, sulfur can be reduced sufficiently
to garner sweet crude prices from sour wells
