I’m excited to see applications of this new technology. I had a quick chat with Michael. He’s going to be reviewing field case studies / applications of the technology.

Looking forward to seeing the case study. This material is expensive but may have applications on challenging/stubborn wells!

I have used the Matrix resin product on 4 occasions to repair a SCVF and it was successful each time although it can be difficult to work with in cold temperatures. It is far superior to cement especially with the very low rate SCVF. It is a pure liquid and therefore can get into much smaller spaces than cement.
