Andrews County, TX – 4-Mile Lateral

Genesis Fluids successfully drilled and ran production casing on a recent 4-mile lateral (>29,200’ MD) in Andrews County using the GeneSYS-PB system — a calcium chloride brine designed for low solids and high lubricity.

The results:

• Drilled with conventional assemblies — no rotary steerable required

• Torque friction factor: 0.14

• Tripping friction factor: 0.20

• Smooth trip out at depth

• Flawless casing run to bottom — no washing, reaming, beads, or spotting pills.

What made the difference?

• Consistent lubrication strategy – real-time application (0.15–0.75 gpm)

• Low-solids environment – full dewatering support

• Stable fluid properties – no chasing rheology or filtration issues

• Disciplined system maintenance

The GeneSYS-PB system creates a continuous lubricating film across the wellbore and drill string — reducing friction while protecting mechanical integrity.

Why it matters

Performance

Extended reach laterals drilled efficiently with predictable torque control.

Mechanical Integrity

Reduced pipe wear, longer string life, fewer surprises.

Cost Control

• Fewer drilling days

• No rotary steerable costs

• Reduced need for OBM/SBM

• Eliminated beads, excessive barite, and non-productive treatments

Proven Across Basins

GeneSYS-PB has delivered results in:

• Permian Basin

• Bakken Shale

• Cotton Valley

This wasn’t a one-off result.

It was the outcome of:

• Engineered fluid design

• Real-time field ex*****on

• Experienced personnel in the field and lab

At Genesis Fluids, we don’t just supply products.

We build systems that perform.

Drill ahead.

Sharpen the Saw — At Genesis Fluids we never stop learning.
Stephen Covey’s 7th Habit, “Sharpen the Saw,” is about continuous improvement—taking time to maintain and refine the tools that make success possible.
In drilling operations, the same principle applies.
A drilling fluid system that worked yesterday won’t necessarily work tomorrow. Formations change. Pressures shift. Solids load increases. Torque creeps up. Small changes can create big consequences.
That’s why the best drilling programs constantly evaluate and refine their systems:
• Adjusting fluid properties
• Managing solids control
• Optimizing lubrication and filtration
• Monitoring torque, drag, and ECD trends.
Even something as fundamental as filtration control and filter cake quality can determine whether a well runs smoothly or turns into a troubleshooting exercise. A thin, low-permeability filter cake helps seal formations, reduce invasion, and prevent problems like torque increases, differential sticking, and poor displacement efficiency.
Great drilling performance rarely comes from a single product or a one-time decision.
It comes from continually sharpening the saw—reviewing data, refining the system, and applying engineering discipline every day.
At Genesis Drilling Fluids, that mindset is part of the culture.
Because the wells that run the smoothest are usually the ones where the team never stops improving.

Solids Control Reality Check

Shakers aren’t background noise.
They’re the front line.

Poor screen selection.
Deferred maintenance.
“Good enough” conveyance.

That’s how drilled solids turn into LGS. And once that happens:

• PV climbs
• YP gets sticky
• ECD drifts higher
• ROP slows down
• Screens wear out faster

You can’t treat your way out of bad solids control.
Dilution is expensive. Reactive chemistry is worse.

This is a system problem — not a product problem.

At Genesis Fluids, we treat solids control like a performance lever:
✔ Proper screen selection
✔ Monitoring NaCl impact in OBM
✔ Maintaining shaker efficiency
✔ Watching trends before they spike

Because once LGS builds up, you’re already behind.

Control the solids.
Control the system.
Drill ahead.

Small Decisions. Big Results.
In drilling fluids, nobody claps for a small adjustment in PV.
No headline for tightening up solids control.
No parade for optimizing lubricity.
But those small decisions?
They show up where it matters.
• Lower torque trends
• Cleaner hole conditions
• Controlled ECD
• Sustained ROP
A slight rheology adjustment can reduce circulating pressures.
A lubrication tweak can keep torque from creeping toward limits.
Better solids management keeps ECD predictable instead of reactive.
Precision engineering isn’t flashy.
It’s disciplined.
At Genesis Fluids, we don’t wait for torque to spike or ECD to bite.
We make the small corrections early — so the big problems never show up.
Because in this business, inches turn into hours.
And hours turn into real money.
If you are to big to do the small things, you are to small to do the big things.
Let's get to work!

The Power of Persistence
“The oil business is a lot like life. You’re going to have your ups and downs. But if you believe in what you’re doing, and you’re willing to work hard, you’ll eventually succeed.”
— George P. Mitchell

In the oilfield, we don’t just manage fluids; we manage uncertainty. Mitchell spent nearly two decades proving that shale could be productive when the rest of the industry had moved on. That kind of grit is what built this industry and what keeps it moving forward today.

At Genesis Fluids, we believe that success isn't just about having the right chemistry in the hole—it’s about having the right mindset on the rig. Whether you're facing a challenging formation or a complex regulatory landscape, the goal remains the same: Stay focused, stay innovative, and keep pushing.

Let’s get to work.

In a complex industry, you need more than just a vendor.

You need Engineering that solves your toughest technical hurdles.
You need Innovation that reduces costs and increases efficiency.
You need Ownership from a team that stands by their performance every step of the way.

At Genesis Fluids, we deliver all three. We’re redefining what fluid management looks like by taking total responsibility for the solution.

"If it is to be, it is up to me."

In the U.S. Army Ranger School, this isn't just a motivational phrase—it’s a survival mechanism. It’s the realization that success doesn't happen by accident, and failures usually happen when someone assumes "the other guy" has it covered.

At Genesis Fluids, we’ve adopted this same level of radical ownership.

In fluid engineering, "hoping" a system holds under pressure isn't a strategy. Innovation doesn't happen by consensus; it happens because one person has the ownership to solve a problem before it becomes a reality.

For us, Ownership means:

Zero Excuses: We don’t blame the specs or the timeline. We own the outcome.

Proactive: If a design can be improved, we don't wait for a request—we lead the change.

The Final Check: Every engineer at Genesis acts as the final line of defense for quality.

When the stakes are high and the systems are complex, there is no "them." There is only us, our expertise, and our commitment to the mission.

If it is to be, it is up to us.

21,000 Feet. One BHA. Extendrill™️

Major milestone reached on the Herbert 101E 303HD (Jo Mill Target)! The team officially TD’d yesterday at 28,811’, successfully drilling a massive 21,000’ horizontal section using only a single BHA!

Operational efficiency and hole quality were the names of the game. Using a 9.5 ppg CaCl brine system integrated with dewatering and Extendrill™️Lubricant/Corrosion Inhibitor, we saw exceptional torque management throughout the run.

The Performance Breakdown:

Total Depth: 28,811’ (21,000' Lateral)

BHA Efficiency: 100% (Single run to TD)

Torque Management: TD’d with on-bottom rotating torque at 32-34k.

Is Your Fluid Provider Protecting Your Bottom Line? 🛠️

Not all fluids are created equal. If your provider isn't strictly monitoring Aniline Point, they might be putting your most expensive equipment at risk.

A low aniline point indicates a high aromatic content. While the fluid might perform fine on the surface, it can be devastating downhole:

Seal Swelling: Low aniline points cause rubber gaskets and O-rings to soften and swell.

Mud Motor Failure: Excessively aromatic oils degrade the elastomers in mud motors, leading to premature (and expensive) failures.

Non-Productive Time (NPT): A "cheap" fluid becomes incredibly costly when it triggers an unscheduled trip out of the hole.

The Genesis Standard: At Genesis Fluids, we utilize precision testing—including the use of our Herzog HFP 339—to ensure our fluids maintain the optimal balance for performance and material compatibility. We don't just provide fluid; we provide insurance for your downhole assets.

"Protect the Elastomers. Preserve the Operation."
