NanoXplore inks supply deal with CPChem for Montreal Tribograf

Drilling Specialties, a division of CPChem, alongside NanoXplore, developed and tested formulations based on Tribograf for use as a lubricant in oil and gas drilling fluids. This lubricant is trademarked as NanoSlide and is currently commercial, with very successful customer feedback and production orders underway.

Tribograf enables superior lubrication properties, as expected from high-aspect ratio graphene, and unlike typical graphene products, it doesn’t cause flow restriction. For example, NanoSlide has been used in some of the most challenging geological formations like tight oil reservoirs, low permeability, low porosity and on extended reach laterals resulting in a lower coefficient of friction and shorter drilling time.

This agreement underscores CPChem’s commitment to delivering innovative and cost-efficient solutions to its customers.

Starting in October,

“This agreement reflects our shared focus on driving innovation and enhancing product efficiency,” said Jay Bickett, senior vice president, polymers & specialties, at CPChem. “We look forward to creating meaningful value for customers through this collaboration.”

“After years of collaborative work, we are proud to achieve this significant milestone for NanoXplore. This contract reflects our belief that advanced carbon materials can deliver impactful value across various industrial applications,” says Rocco Marinaccio chief operating officer at NanoXplore.
