FTTN: Enhanced Oil Recovery Market Shows Future Growth and Revenue Promise

August 11, 2015 | By Business Wire News

LAS VEGAS

First Titan Corp. (OTCBB: FTTN) continues to examine a wide array of options concerning its possible entry into the Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) business, and while no decision has yet been made, the company has been buoyed by several market indicators.

According to one published industry forecast, the global EOR market is expected to reach $516 billion by 2023, up substantially from just $38 billion in 2012. The forecast also predicted global EOR will also enjoy a nearly 27 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during this time period. North America, the largest segment, represents nearly 40 percent of the total market.

“We are quite encouraged by the market research and due diligence results to this point,” said FTTN CEO Sydney Jim. “As indicated by the research, EOR shows great possibilities for growth, and we believe that growth can lead to strong revenue potential for FTTN and increased shareholder value for our investors. However, a decision of this magnitude requires careful consideration and we are still conducting comprehensive due diligence, as any responsible company should do.”

EOR is a method for increasing the amount of crude oil that can be extracted from an existing field using either thermal, chemical or gas injections into a declining reservoir. As oil prices fall, it could be more cost effective for producers to extend the life of declining fields through EOR rather than drilling new wells, using controversial fracking technology or developing potentially expensive-to-extract shale oil resources.
