What's the deal with Hydrocarbon Dynamics?

According to its release, Hydrocarbon Dynamics advised it has been awarded the chemical treatment business for 30 wells with receipt of a follow-up order from Santos Ltd (ASX: STO).
The order follows a successful trial conducted on 3 wells in the Cooper Basin last year.
Hydrocarbon Dynamics stated that it will supplant one of the world's largest oilfield chemical companies that previously treated these wells.
The initial order is expected to generate revenue of approximately A$140,000 with treatment expected to recommence next month.
Notably, Hydrocarbon Dynamics concluded a successful 6-month trial for the producer on a waxy field in the Cooper Basin. This achieved the "key objective of mitigating down time and production loss issues stemming from paraffin build-up."
The company highlighted that the use of its HCD multi-flow reduced lost production by 96% in the trial.
Furthermore, the results demonstrated that with the introduction of HCD multi-flow there was exceptional improvements in well performance, cleaner flow lines and no additional build-up of sludge in the tanks.
Management said that it's connecting with other producers in the region with similar production issues to expand business opportunities.
