The phenomenon of innovation is inseparable from the concept of change, novelty, reform, or the concept perceived as new. Innovations include various facts, processes, and phenomena of a technical, organizational, social or psychological nature. Such varied and unspecified understanding of innovation results from both the recent tradition of research into innovation and the different theoretical approaches.

Schumpeter understood innovations as fundamental or radical changes involving the transformation of a new idea or technological invention into a marketable product or process. All dissemination of innovation is, in his opinion, a distinct type of change, which is called imitation. This means that innovation is a unique (discontinuous, non-continuous) change, whereas imitative or inverse changes have a continuous, repetitive course.

More often, however, innovation is defined as the successful economical exploitation of new ideas (M. Porter). Innovations are treated here as a continuum of technical and organizational changes, including on the one hand simple modifications to existing products, processes and practices (which may be new to the company but not necessarily to the industry) to fundamentally new products and processes on the other As well as for the company). The pursuit of innovation involves a whole range of scientific, technological, organizational, financial and commercial activities.


IPOW in its business focuses on innovation related to:
- design of degassing
- technique and technology for opening gas deposal and operation exploitation
- directional drilling
- special construction of casing pipes and filters

Designation of methane drainage systems by using long directional (horizontal) holes up to 1200m depth (length)
- determine the diameter and number of drilled holes,
- design of holes in area of mining exploitation
Design of directional borehole and in particular:
- design of spatial axis parameters of the hole,
- selection of columns of casing tubes and selection type of casing (steel or composite type),
- optimization of drilling parameters
We have a group of experienced designers and consultants.

Degassing is a technical process involving the removal of gas from a rock, in which the gas has been stored, using a particular technology and the necessary technical means. Regardless of origin, the gas can be found in the natural environment - native rock or in newly formed layers of overburden. They may be landfills after mining or different types of municipal waste. The resulting gas is a byproduct of human activity.

Degassing can be a function of three basic goals:
Degas to reduce greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere.,
Degassing to improve safety conditions,
Degassing to intensify production processes.
In all cases, the economic goal of degassing is secondary, but it does not affect the final result.

Methane drainage is a special case of degassing.
Methane drainage is a technological process that involves the capture of methane from coal seams or abandoned workings, typically by means of drainage holes connected to pipelines allowing gas to be discharged to a methane drainage station (compressors with control and measuring equipment and explosion protection devices) located in underground galleries. Supplying gas to the ventilation air or usually delivering gas to the surface installation and finally to power central hitting system or power plant produced electric energy and hitting.
of the gas supply to the district heating and energy and gas to the atmosphere. It is rare that gas is released into the atmosphere

Our target is:
- High concentration of methane in the degassing network
- intensified use of methane
- reducing methane emissions to the atmosphere

IPOW owns patent rights for the subject of carbon degassing with long drilling holes up to 1200m

Drilling is an effective method of making liquid resources available.
Modern drilling techniques and technology available at the disposal of investors allow precise directional drilling of large lengths holes (up to 1200m).
