The deployment in the Williston Basin targeted the persistent industry challenge of proppant production, which frequently forces premature pump shutdowns. Unlike traditional mechanical interventions, the SandBOND™ process utilizes a non-resin, atomized aluminum-based chemistry. The treatment is introduced via a simple bullhead procedure followed by a 24-hour soak, bypassing the need for specialized equipment or intervention rigs.

TenEx CEO Miguel Peña noted that the results validate the technology's ability to stabilize long-lateral wells without sacrificing output. Field data confirms that both test wells achieved 100% regained permeability, with pumps remaining operational beyond the 12-month mark. CTO Amr Radwan highlighted that the primary hurdle for operators is often the trade-off between sand control and flow capacity, a balance this chemical approach claims to resolve.
