(“Acceleware” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: AXE), a leading innovator of cutting-edge radio frequency (“RF”) power-to-heat technologies targeting process heat for critical minerals, amine regeneration (for carbon capture and other applications), and enhanced oil production, is pleased to announce details of the next generation of RF XL, (“RF XL 2.0”) and a new demonstration plan (the “Demonstration”).\n \n\n “RF XL”, Acceleware’s enhanced oil recovery (“EOR”) technology that uses RF heating to energize oil formations, is a major innovation that could potentially decarbonize heavy oil and oil sands production effectively and efficiently by materially lowering costs compared to other EOR techniques, increasing the recovery factor, and potentially stimulating investment.\n \n\n The RF XL Marwayne deployment was supported by three major operators and progressed from\n \n Technology Readiness Level\n \n (“TRL”) 4 to TRL 8, with its core technology, the Clean Tech Inverter (“CTI”) progressing to TRL 9. This deployment successfully demonstrated RF XL’s potential by heating the reservoir and increasing temperatures in the production well while achieving the highest power level and longest continuous run time for any RF based EOR technology.\n \n\n Buoyed by the initial results at Marwayne, and the promise of increased oil production with higher power, Acceleware was encouraged by funders and industry partners to upgrade and improve to next generation RF XL 2.0.\n \n\n Key components of the RF XL 2.0 development process included:\n \n\n\n Confirmed industry support for a sub-surface energy delivery system incorporating multiple technical advances over the previous RF XL design.\n \n\n Completed a ‘ground-up’ redesign program of the subsurface RF transmission lines, culminating in a hermetically sealed energy delivery system that eliminates the possibility of water ingress.\n \n\n Resulting benefits are a robust leak-proof design, reduced manufacturing costs, reduced well design and well completion costs, quicker well completion time, simpler and less costly wellhead de...
