RECHARGE HNP™ - Energise, activate and enhance hydrocarbon recovery.

Linde presents the next generation of well production enhancement solutions 

RECHARGE HNP™ offers the best results at an affordable price. It is perfect for operators looking for a simple, flexible and low-cost enhanced recovery solution with quick payback.

Benefits in a nutshell:

  • Treatment results last longer, extending intervals between  treatments
  • Less cost-intensive method than existing solutions
  • Recent treatments showed productivity increases from 12 to 564% 
  • No special well treatment equipment needed 
  • Implementation is fast and quick to production 
  • Targets 60- to 90-day payback on vertical wells 
  • Potential  to postpone plugging expense of marginally economic wells 
  • Applicable to all well types: conventional and unconventional oil or gas

The formula behind the success

RECHARGE HNP is a multi-spectrum, proprietary remediation treatment for wells with production problems.  The combination of nanoActiv® HRT nanoparticles with certain gas properties creates a unique, synergistic treatment that addresses several potential production issues simultaneously. Successful treatment will enhance production for six months and more. The flexibility of this treatment makes it applicable to all types of wells, whether they be conventional or unconventional oil or gas reserves. 


Nitrogen and Carbon Dioxide:

  • Drive effective distribution of the nanoparticles deeper into the formation 
  • Stimulate the well with pressure, mobilising fluids to the wellbore 
  • Remove debris, fines and other matter (well skin) 
  • When miscible, lead to swelling and reduced oil viscosity, facilitating mobilisation of oil 
  • Displace oil or gas in the reservoir, mobilising to wellbore 
  • Changes wettability characteristics, removing fluids that cause blockages near wellbore area

Nanoparticles:

  • Change wettability properties enabling increased flow of liquid 
  • Leave residue on rock surfaces, creating a wettability neutral coating that has a lasting effect over time 
  • Penetrate micro/nano-fractures and pores, enabling production that otherwise would not be possible 

RECHARGE HNP treatment – simple and flexible

Our solution is a prescribed well remediation treatment (Huff and Puff) consisting of three phases: injection, soaking and production. RECHARGE HNP dramatically reduces soak times compared with traditional HNP treatments. Depending on the type of formation, well history and identified issues, a specific treatment plan is prescribed. Linde has decades of experience in deploying huff and puff technology to inject carbon dioxide into depleted wells, achieving consistent incremental productivity enhancement results. This proven track record makes us the right partner to screen your well, prescribe the treatment and ensure successful implementation.
