Alberta, Canada
Most Alberta gas wells over-inject methanol — not because operators are careless, but because fixed injection schedules are set to the worst-case scenario and never updated. The result is chemical waste, unnecessary pneumatic pump venting, and no record of what was actually injected or why.
Three steps — advice, control, network
Connects to your existing SCADA or site sensors and delivers a live, optimized methanol injection recommendation your operators review and apply. No new hardware required when SCADA is in place.
Retrofits your pneumatic pump with a smart controller that adjusts injection rates automatically as conditions change. Full audit trail, safety limits, and manual override throughout.
Extends optimization across your full gathering system. Models wellhead-to-riser distances, elevation profiles, river and wetland crossings, and allocates one chemical budget across every segment simultaneously.
Four steps from data to optimized injection
Integrate with SCADA (AVEVA, OSIsoft PI) or install wellhead sensors. No rip-and-replace.
ML surrogate model trained on 885,000 simulation cases predicts the optimal rate in real time.
Get an advisory recommendation operators apply manually, or let EcoInject close the loop automatically.
Every injection event is logged — a complete record of what was injected, when, and why.
Emissions you can measure, records you can defend
Pneumatic pump venting is regulated and increasingly scrutinized by AER. EcoInject captures injection event data at the pump level so you can quantify vented emissions per well — replacing generic emission factors with measured data. The same logs support TIER reporting and methanol tracking with no additional reporting burden on your operations team.
Model built for Alberta basin conditions
XGBoost surrogate model trained on 885,000 pressure-step simulations covering the full Alberta gas composition space. 1.37°F RMSE against held-out test cases — well within the 5°F safety margin used in standard operating procedures. Physics-based fallback for wells outside the training envelope.
How a pilot works — advisory first, always
Share a SCADA or production data export. We return a savings estimate — methanol reduction, emissions impact, and recoverable chemical spend. No commitment required.
We review well sites, hardware requirements, P&IDs, and SCADA integration points together before any equipment moves.
EcoInject goes live in advisory mode. Operators review every recommendation before acting. Full visibility before any automation.
When ready, injection adjusts automatically. Safety limits, audit trail, and manual override remain in place throughout.
Advisory-only is a permanent option — not just a stepping stone. It delivers the same model output and emissions records at a lower cost, with no new hardware required. Advisor and Control are priced per well, per month. Network is scoped per project based on well count and pipeline complexity.
