Highlights

  • HCD secures repeat international orders for its signature product
  • Strategic trials and commercial talks expand into key global markets
  • Maintains strong financial position with zero debt and stable cash

Hydrocarbon Dynamics (ASX:HCD), a company focused on specialty chemical solutions for the energy sector, has published its March 2025 quarterly update, revealing steady operational progress and expanding international engagement. Key developments include fresh orders, global trials, and strategic discussions for commercial uptake, underscoring rising interest in the company's core product—HCD Multi-Flow.

Expanding Global Footprint

The company has secured approximately $165,000 in revenue from a repeat order of HCD Multi-Flow, placed by its Dubai-based distributor, Sichem LLC. This transaction underscores the growing reliability and market traction of HCD’s chemical technology. Another order of similar size is currently under consideration, which may strengthen the company’s presence in the Middle Eastern market.

Closer to home, HCD has quoted around $240,000 for a seasonal repeat order in Australia’s Cooper Basin, aimed at addressing paraffin-related production issues. Meanwhile, in the United States, a Californian oil operator has begun testing the product across a limited scope, with potential expansion to up to 150 wells pending successful outcomes.

Operational Progress and International Trials

Commercial conversations are gaining momentum across Southeast Asia. In Kuala Lumpur, product testing delivered positive outcomes—specifically in viscosity reduction and API gravity enhancement. These results have advanced talks regarding larger commercial deployment.

Additionally, HCD is negotiating to supply its product to offshore platforms for use in pour point depression and paraffin inhibition. A notable North Sea project, involving treatment for severe paraffin deposition, is expected to resume in mid-April.

Stable Financials and Strategic Planning

As of the end of March 2025, the company reported cash reserves of $687,000, with no debt on the balance sheet. After the quarter’s close, the additional $165,000 inflow from Sichem provided a further boost to liquidity. On the corporate front, royalty and director payments totaled $149,000.

Looking ahead, HCD is exploring joint ventures and private equity financing options to enhance capital availability for its core chemical business. Simultaneously, the company continues evaluating broader energy opportunities—ranging from upstream energy to storage and security technologies.

Product Quality Assurance

Further strengthening its value proposition, HCD confirmed that its Multi-Flow product, even after three years in storage, continues to meet or exceed quality standards across all measured specifications, based on recent Certificate of Analysis testing.

With expanding geographic reach, reliable product performance, and a debt-free financial base, Hydrocarbon Dynamics appears to be steadily positioning itself for broader industry relevance in the energy sector.
