Eadie Oil Inc. licenses the EADIEMAC Process as a practical solution to the need for field upgrading units. The thermal process is designed to change heavy crude oil by visbreaking into a much lower viscosity higher value oil (see test results). Where up to about 20% diluent is added to meet pipeline specifications heavy oil producers may eliminate this cost plus benefit from the current price differential between heavy and light crude oils.

Normally, in Alberta, Canada where we are located, heavy crude oil is blended with diluent to meet pipeline viscosity specifications. By thermally changing the viscosity of the oil, near the well sites or at battery locations, the oil may be transported without or with significantly less diluent. Where appropriate the oil may be re-directed to a higher value product pipeline to take advantage of the price differential.

Eadie Oil Inc. has successfully run a 11/2 bbl/day pilot and is currently working to commercialize the EADIEMAC Process and related proprietary processes in field units from 2,500 bbls/day up to larger central plants of 10,000 bbls/day capacity or more. Capital costs will vary depending upon plant size as there are significant economies of scale.

Patent coverage was obtained some time ago for the front end elements of the overall EADIEMAC Process. This portion covers the basic thermal cracking component before improvements. Other components of the full process are designed to optimize revenue from the partially upgraded product, adapt to heavier feed stocks, enhance related field operations and deal with environmental issues.
