BioSqueeze® - Biomineralization Technology for Sealing Methane Leaks
FromBioSqueeze Inc.
Biomineralization by BioSqueeze® employs a safe, eco-friendly method utilizing naturally occurring soil bacteria combined with commonly available chemicals used in food and agriculture to form mineralizing fluids. This solution is introduced deep into well leakages, thanks to its water-like viscosity of 1.05 cP, enabling it to penetrate micro-annuli unreachable by other products. The fluid eventually transforms into crystalline calcium carbonate, a resilient limestone-like material that bonds with rock, cement, and steel to seal leaks permanently. The process leads to an effective, permanent solution that surpasses the strength of existing formations. BioSqueeze® aids in stopping methane leaks with a carbon-neutral footprint, ensuring environmental safety even in sensitive areas like aquifers. This technology provides a significant advantage for sustainable practices in the oil and gas industry.Most popular related searches

Biomineralization is the safe, environmentally friendly technology that’s the basis of BioSqueeze®. Harnessing naturally occurring bacteria, we have developed an innovative solution to countless issues in the oil and gas industry.
- Biomineralization combines non-hazardous, naturally occurring soil bacteria and common, widely available, and safe chemicals used as food additives, fertilizers, and agricultural feed products. Together, they create a fluid with the ability to transform into new minerals.
- This environmentally friendly mineralizing solution is pumped deep into leakage pathways of a well. With a viscosity of 1.05 cP – similar to water – our solution can easily penetrate tiny micro-annuli that no other product can reach, sealing leaks at their source.
- Once in place, the fluid begins its transformation into crystalline calcium carbonate – a limestone-like material that binds to rock, cement, and steel, permanently sealing any and all leakage pathways.
- Crystal formation persists for several hours after the organisms become inactive, quickly creating an impermeable and permanent seal. Once solid, the calcium carbonate is stronger than the existing formation.
