Hydrocarbon Microseepage Detection

At Red River Geochem, we utilize cutting edge methods for the detection of non-traditional chemical compounds associated with microseepage from oil & gas reservoirs. We employ the most technologically advanced gas chromatography equipment available today.
Our data collection equipment is efficient and accurate. The subsurface data collection process, while being minimally invasive, ensures complete integrity of our air/gas samples. Red River Geochem’s highly trained field technicians collect and store the samples on site. This data is then downloaded /analyzed in our laboratory through our gas chromatographs on a daily basis. Our chromatographs are equipped with method 5030/5035 compliant Purge and Trap, PID, and FID/DELCD detectors, and will easily generate quality data while focusing on soil gas analyses.
Once the data is analyzed, our geochemical research associates are able to fully tabulate the data on multiple criteria, and transfer it into a readable format. This allows for a variety of contour mapping options for clients, by virtue of our versatile mapping software programs. These various maps and overlays can “stand alone” or with further analysis, be integrated with subsurface geological/geophysical/seismic maps and data.
The second geochemical method we employ centers on Radiometrics. This thesis is based on the theory that measured surface radiation shows characteristic low activity above petroleum reservoirs. Red River Geochem’s field equipment includes the Ludlum M-4404-16-4 portable matched to Mobile Demand’s Xtablet T7200. This data can be mapped in a variety of formats to assist subsurface, geophysical and geochemical information.
