Research abstract
Hydrocarbons will remain an important energy source for the foreseeable future- Unconventionals are plentiful but decline quickly- Successful application of AERO Technology can recover a significant portion of this enormous resource into the world's energy marketplace- AERO technology acts via interfacial tension alteration and bio-diversion of fluids to improve oil mobility and sweep efficiency – both very attractive for enhancing recovery from unconventional fractured reservoirs of moderate permeability- AERO application can make a significant contribution to US energy independence by optimizing production from our existing and known resources-
