GreenZyme® is a proven, detergent‑class enzyme technology used worldwide to increase oil mobility, improve sweep efficiency, and restore production in mature or underperforming wells. This guide summarizes what operators need to know before getting started.

Enzymatic oil recovery methods align with the growing demand for sustainable oil production. The enzymes used are biodegradable and non-toxic, reducing environmental risks. Unlike chemical surfactants or solvents, enzymes do not accumulate in the environment or cause long-term damage.

Since the 1990s GreenZyme has collected a historical track record of a conservative 40% increase in production in 90% of their implementations.

Three GreenZyme-treated wells in Kuwait's Burgan field delivered confirmed production increases of 28-30%, with a projected 12-month incremental gain of roughly 183,000 barrels.

Oil Well productivity increases with GreenZyme shield a conservative 40% increase in production with a success rate of 95%.

Bio-enzyme is capable of changing the wettability of rock surface, reduce interfacial tension to 10-1 mN/m, oil wash rate more than 72%

Video-documented lab work shows how GreenZyme's polar-force effect changes crude oil's adhesion behavior, freeing trapped oil from the rock surface and increasing fluid movement in the reservoir.
