spend of $22m. It is estimated that the incremental oil production could be between 5% and 15%. It
is also acknowledged that Harvest Energy are currently using a Chinese supplied nano-particle
technology as an alternative to polymer flooding, due to cost.

There are 10 ASP projects active in Canada with a further three approved for development. They
are summarised in the following table.

a) BlackPearl Resources Inc.
BlackPearl began an ASP flooding program at the Mooney field in Alberta in 2011. During this first
phase an estimated 1,900 bbl/d was produced from the field. The peak for the first phase is 3,000
bbl/d. The project has received approval for expansion in phases 2 and 3. This activity is set to
begin in 2014, and will witness two more wells being drilled and ASP flooding being initiated
between late 2014 and 2015. There is also further opportunity in the field for increased production,
although ASP flooding may not be the chosen option due to the heavy oil in the location. In 2014, it

8. Expert Opinion
8.1 Huntsman
Huntsman is a global manufacturer and marketer of differentiated chemicals. The company is split
into five business units, one of which is Performance Products. Within Performance Products is the
Energy Global Strategic Business unit. As a surfactant manufacturer, the majority of surfactant
production facilities are centred in Europe, although there is also a facility in Australia and the US,
with Huntsman offering both off-the-shelf products as well as custom made solutions for ASP and
SP flooding and surfactants for use with gas injection schemes. Visiongain spoke to Guy
Biesmans, Senior Marketing Manager for Global Alternative Energy Solutions, in May 2014.
Visiongain would like to thank Mr. Biesmans for his contribution to the report.
8.1.1 Huntsman’s Role in the Chemical EOR Market
Visiongain: Can you tell me about Huntsman and your role within the chemical EOR market?
Guy Biesmans: Huntsman is a chemical manufacturer and is divided into five different divisions.
One of those divisions is called Huntsman Performance Products, and that is where the activities
for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) are based. Huntsman Performance Products, again, operates
with six global strategic business units (SBU), and one of those business units (BU) is called
Energy.
I am globally responsible within the Energy SBU for a segment that we call Alternative Energy
Solutions. Alternative Energy Solutions incorporates different markets and chemical EOR is one of
them, but the segment also includes alternative energy such as solar energy, wind energy, and
energy storage.
8.1.2 How Falling Oil Production is Driving the Chemical EOR Market
Visiongain: From a wider perspective, what would you say are the main factors driving the
chemical EOR market?
Guy Biesmans: The main drivers are the need for continued oil production from existing
reservoirs, and the fact that the easy oil is depleted. We are now seeing a global decline in
production and therefore there is a need to look at new methods and technologies to increase oil
production. Although conventional secondary recoveries are well established, you still only have an
