By pushing the limits of seismic-while-drilling (SWD) technology, the SeismicPULSER system provides more accurate geo-steering for the discovery of new oil and natural gas reserves, facilitating new field development and improving well economics. Funding for the project came from the Office of Fossil Energy’s Oil & Natural Gas Program.

The renewable petroleum feedstock comprises normal, branched and cyclic alkanes up to 31 carbons in length and is similar in composition to the feedstocks produced in a petroleum refinery from crude oil. These waste hemicellulose sugars are among the most inexpensive biomass feedstocks that are available today, they noted.
