LLC “Ukrainian Impulse Industry” specializes in the development and implementation of reservoir stimulation technologies based on dilatant decompression and fatigue effects within the formation. We use equipment that generates High-Frequency Pulsed Waves to substantially enhance the permeability and flow conductivity of rock formations in situ, at depths of up to 5,000 meters.
The groundwork for studying the theory of dilatant decompression, developing the technology of high-frequency pulsed power waves, and creating the equipment for its implementation was laid back in 1976
Currently, we apply dilatant decompression technology for the following purposes:
Enhancing oil and gas production by increasing reservoir rock permeability
Treating leachable ore bodies in in-situ leaching (ISL) operations and increasing leachate recovery rates (flow rates of pumped solutions)
Improving the efficiency of mine development by protecting mine workings from groundwater inflow
Our Mission
- To implement dilatant decompression technology for rock formations and to increase mineral production in an environmentally and economically sustainable way.
- To help restore Ukraine’s economic potential by increasing the production of oil, gas, and other mineral resources.
- To introduce Ukrainian-developed technologies to the global market.
About Us
We were the first in Ukraine—and among the first in the world—to use high-frequency pulsed power waves to control the filtration properties of rock formations in situ, at depths of up to 5,000 meters. This method allows us to modify rock permeability to increase the inflow of oil, gas, uranium, and sulfur, and to eliminate gas and solid-particle plugging within the reservoir and production equipment.
Unlike chemical stimulation methods, the effect of pulsed power waves extends not only to the near-wellbore zone but throughout the entire reservoir. Moreover, unlike hydraulic fracturing (fracking), this technology is more controlled and acts only within designated zones and intervals.
The technology provides a new approach to evaluating field potential and enables increased hydrocarbon recovery by restoring production from depleted reservoirs and reviving wells with deteriorated hydrodynamic performance.
The technology and equipment are also widely used for treating leachable ore bodies to promote decompaction and to increase the flow rates of pumped leaching solutions by equalizing inflow profiles and eliminating contamination caused by fine-dispersed and clay plugging materials.
This technology is also applied to improve the efficiency of mining operations by protecting mine workings from groundwater inflow and by stabilizing soil for the injection of sealing (grouting) solutions.
We sincerely hope that the impulse-based theory, technology, and equipment we have developed and implemented will continue to evolve both in Ukraine and abroad, and that this information proves useful and interesting to you.
