OGDCL Signs Agreement with Canadian Company to Boost Heavy Oil Production
Oil & Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL) has entered into a strategic agreement with Canadian firm Synergetic Oil Tools Inc. to deploy advanced Passive Energy Tool (PET) technology at selected heavy oil wells in Pakistan. The technology is designed to enhance heavy oil production by improving reservoir performance, reducing chemical consumption, minimizing well interventions, and lowering operating costs. The collaboration forms part of OGDCL's broader strategy to enhance domestic hydrocarbon production through the adoption of innovative technologies. Increased heavy oil recovery is expected to strengthen Pakistan's energy security by reducing reliance on imported petroleum products while improving the efficiency of existing producing fields.
