Flared Natural Gas in the Shale Drilling Plays

Primarily Oil Plays Absent or Insufficient

Gathering Pipelines for the Natural Gas

Flaring preferable to Venting

EIA: < 1% of Gas Production Flared Nationwide

29% of North Dakota’s Gas Production is Flared!

Solutions/Uses for This Abundance of Flared Gas?

Bi-Fuel Retrofits of Diesel Engines Used in O&G

Diesel Engines – Workhorses of the Oilfieldo Drilling Operations – Generators, Mud Pumpso On-Site Power Generationo Liquids Pumping

Extreme Duty Cycleo Lots of Time Under Heavy Loado 24/7 Operationo Big Quantities of Diesel Fuel Consumed!

Ideal Candidates for Bi-Fuel Retrofitso Substitute Natural Gas for a Portion of the Diesel Fuel Consumedo Use a Readily Available Fuel Source that Would Otherwise be Flared!

Comparative Emissions Analysis: MIRATECH Research Plan

Four Engine Operating Modes (Exhaust Emissions Scenarios)o Stock Diesel Engine (Raw Emissions)o Bi-Fuel Retrofitted Diesel Engine (Raw Emissions)o Stock Engine w/ MIRATECH Catalysto Bi-Fuel Engine w/ MIRATECH Catalyst

Five Engine Operating Loads: 10% - 100% Rated Load Multiple Pollutant Species

o NOx

o COo Formaldehydeo CO2

o CO2-equivalent

GOAL: Control Bi-Fuel Engine Emissions w/ MIRATECH Catalyst to Equal or Lower than the Stock Diesel Engine’s Certified Emissions.

Results Summary

With the Bi-Fuel + MIRATECH Catalyst Retrofit, NOx and CO Emissions are Reduced to Levels at or Below the Factory-Certified Emissions from the Stock Diesel Engine

The MIRATECH Catalyst Achieves a Formaldehyde Emission Reduction that is Compliant with EPA’s RICE NESHAP Regulation

As Expected, the Less Carbon-Intensive Blend of Fuel Reduces CO2 Emission Levels in the Engine Exhaust

18

Outcomes

Many Hesitant Bi-Fuel Prospects Have Now Been Persuaded by These Results to Adopt Bi-Fuel + MIRATECH Catalyst Retrofits

Emergency Gen Set Operators Have the Opportunity for Expanded Use of Their Equipment, Knowing They Will Comply with RICE NESHAP, As Well

MIRATECH Has Commercialized a Bi-Fuel Catalyst Formulation Drilling Companies are Recognizing Significant Fuel Savings,

Putting a Stranded Natural Resource to Good Use EPA Has Invited MIRATECH and GFS Corp to Present Their

Research This Fall
