PROP stock has been drifting downward since 2011. The technology which this company has was available to oil producers when the price of oil was above $100 for a long time. So why should PROP stock price ever go up if it did not do well when the price of oil was high? What difference will it make if the price of oil goes up significantly to the success this stock? It appears to me that PROP has had its chance when times were good but still failed as a stock. I'm wondering if other tried and true techniques for improving oil production are more cost effective than the technology from PROP.

Now if they can figure out a way to implant their wave producing devices permanently into oil wells so that production may be improved when needed then PROP may have lots of success. As it stands now rods must be pulled from the well which makes it very pricey to apply the treatment. This must be done anyway whenever a well is serviced for the purposes of improving production with other techniques. If the wave producing device from PROP can be implanted permanently into an oil well immediately after the well is drilled or after a single "pulling" of an existing well then it will have a very hot item. But pulling the rods out of a well once a year for repeated treatment with PROP technology is an expensive way to keep oil production higher. This is why the price of oil so drastically affects this stock. Even if improved oil production by treatment of PROP technology occurs the price of oil must be high enough to justify the cost of treatment. It may be more cost effective for a lot of oil companies to simply shut an oil well down when prices are low until oil prices recover and then have PROP treat the well with its technology to increase production. Or else use another technique such a a fracking treatment to improve production which might be cheaper and longer lasting even though production per day may be less. If a fracking treatment which might be cheaper increases production at a lower rate per day but lasts for more than a year then what advantage does technology from PROP really offer whose treatment only lasts a year? These comparisons do not seem to be addressed to shareholders by PROP and very much should.

This company needs to show its possible customers and current shareholders the differences in cost between its technique for improving oil well production and traditional techniques such as fracking and how long after a treatment the traditional techniques are effective as compared to PROP's.
