Zerosum,

Wednesday IS a big day Cpopp, when Dr. Tao tells the scientific community about the amazing AOT and what it can do for oil pipelines around the world. I can't wait to hear what Dr. Tao has to say. Could he elaborate on the test and the AOT effect? Can't wait to find out :)[/

Zerosum, I think you are right about the significance of Dr Tao’s last paper and Wednesday’s presentation. I am fortunate enough to have been in touch with a friend of a friend, who is a shareholder with a scientific background. He has made an analysis of Tao’s paper and found that the implications are farther than what we had all thought and hoped for. Although his paper was first destined to his close friends, he has agreed at my request to have it available for your reading. Here is his analysis. I have just pasted below the summary of his paper.
Disclaimer : You are big boys, Do your own research and make your own decisions !!!!
Happy reading ! (PS : I'am on a 1 post/day diet so no immediate answer...)

“AOT turbulence suppression feature greatly expands potential market for AOT”
Personal review od Dr Tao's paper.

KEY POINT FROM PAPER
Below is a summary of the key new effect identified in the paper.
• For a certain reduction in viscosity,
o Under laminar flow, the power required reduces in direct proportion to viscosity.
o Under turbulent flow the power required DOES NOT reduce in direct proportion to viscosity.
It is more like 1:2. Reference – Tao Page 1
“For example, to increase the flow rate by 30% we only need to increase the pressure by 30% for laminar flow, but for a turbulence flow we need to increase the pressure by 58.3%;”
o Therefore if AOT only reduced viscosity if would be BEST for upstream laminar pipelines and LESS attractive for mid-stream turbulent flow
• However what is shown in the paper is that AOT not only reduces viscosity but also suppresses turbulent flow, making it laminar and more efficient for a given flow rate.
• It’s much more than just being about the percentage benefits.
• The change massively expands the potential market of AOT within the mid-stream market (to a much larger scale so than has been appreciated previously).
SUMMARY
1. AOT Benefits for laminar (smooth non turbulent) flow was already known to be compelling.
2. AOT was thought to have less benefit for turbulent pipelines in percentage savings terms.
3. However AOT is now shown to suppress turbulent flow as is found in big high speed mid-stream pipelines.
4. Dramatic increase in percent benefits for turbulent flow mid-stream pipelines, approximately doubling the benefit over what we knew before this paper.
5. Mid-stream now core market, big capital big ticket item (more so than upstream) most pipelines overbooked many will need it.
6. DRA were for turbulent market. DRA’s are useless for laminar flow. However AOT makes turbulent flow laminar so DRA’s market is shrinking and AOT’s market is exploding.
7. AOT vastly superior to DRA’s. No chemicals, saves energy, no refining steps and DRA’s don’t apply unless flow is turbulent, where AOT handles laminar and turbulent.
8. 75% power savings on Keystone. Have seen other savings figures e.g. 28% - Daqing below. These are both enormous potential savings. Even if we take a very conservative 10% saving, the capital cost of AOT is repaid from additional toll revenue in the first year. See below.
9. Much more of the 200,000 miles of global pipeline are now AOT’s target market and with a higher level of benefits applying to turbulent flow than was previously appreciated by the market place.
10. Valuation has just gone up dramatically.
