Under the West Texas sky, Drill-Lube Gold Star is already on the job.

Drill-Lube Gold Star is built for demanding downhole applications in water-based drilling fluids. Its full film-forming technology helps reduce torque and drag while creating a durable protective layer with a strong affinity for metal surfaces, improving corrosion and wear protection on tubulars.

From the tote to the wellbore, Drill-Lube Gold Star provides the dependable lubrication needed to keep drilling operations moving forward in some of the toughest conditions.

When the job demands more, put a Gold Star on it. ⭐️

Before pressure finds a path, build strength into the formation. 🔒

TerraLock is a proactive wellbore-strengthening material designed to reinforce the near-wellbore region before drilling conditions become a constraint. Its multimodal particle system bridges developing microfractures and promotes early fracture tip screen-out.

By creating a stable stress cage within the formation, TerraLock helps increase wellbore hoop strength, enhance fracture closure stress, and support a higher effective fracture gradient. The result is improved formation integrity and greater wellbore stability across challenging fractured and depleted intervals.

As laterals extend, lubrication becomes part of the drilling strategy.

Drill-Lube Ultra was developed for high-torque, extended-reach applications where wellbore tortuosity, temperature, salinity, and calcium can challenge fluid performance. Specialized surfactant chemistry and improved ester technology provide strong metal wetting and boundary lubrication, with thermal stability above 350°F and compatibility across demanding water-based fluid systems.

For extended laterals, the right lubricant plays an important role in maintaining drilling performance as downhole conditions become more demanding.

Strong defenses create winning opportunities. Strong wellbores create successful drilling operations. ⚽️

Wellbore stability is one of the biggest factors in a successful drilling operation. When formations begin to weaken, lost circulation, NPT, and costly delays can quickly follow. TerraLock helps strengthen the wellbore before problems begin by reinforcing the formation, maintaining stability, and helping operators keep drilling ahead with confidence.

Whether you’re competing for a World Cup title or drilling your next well, success starts with preparation and a strong foundation. As Team USA takes the pitch today, we’re celebrating the value of a strong defense both on the field and at the wellsite.

TerraLock saved a Haynesville operator $250,000 per well by eliminating a casing string most engineers treat as unavoidable.

Reactive shales, narrow mud windows, and pressure transitions through the intermediate interval almost always force a 10-3/4" string into the plan. An operator in Natchitoches Parish, LA was facing exactly that, with the standard casing program set to add hundreds of thousands of dollars and multiple days to each well.

The solution was continuous TerraLock at 12 ppb across the entire intermediate interval. Rather than waiting for losses to trigger a response, TerraLock stays suspended in the fluid and proactively seals fractures, keeping the wellbore stable through the most vulnerable zones before problems have a chance to escalate.

What it meant for the bottom line:
✔️ $250,000+ saved per well
✔️ 2+ days recovered on schedule
✔️ Intermediate casing string moved to contingency only

Watch TerraLock in action and see the difference for yourself: https://lnkd.in/gwprUtvz

What happens when the extra mile becomes the expectation?

Across the Bakken, operators are drilling farther than ever before. Longer laterals, tighter margins, and increasing demands have changed what “good enough” looks like. When torque rises and friction starts fighting every foot, the costs add up quickly. Lost efficiency, slower drilling, and unnecessary downtime can turn an otherwise good well into an expensive one. So we focused on pushing performance even further.

Like any great craft brewery, we never set out to create something people would try once. We set out to create something they’d come back to. Because like any great pour, a superior lubricant is remembered for the experience it delivers. And when something consistently delivers, people keep coming back for another round.

That’s how Drill-Lube Ultra was crafted.

Backed by extensive R&D, laboratory testing, and field validation, Drill-Lube Ultra is our superior lubricant made for operators chasing the extra mile. Designed to reduce torque and drag, improve ROP, and maximize efficiency, Ultra helps crews focus on what they do best.

Ready for your next run? Go farther with Ultra. Let’s push the extra mile together.

When drilling longer laterals through challenging formations, operators need a lubricant built to handle torque, friction, and the demands of modern drilling programs. They need Drill-Lube Ultra.

As drilling programs continue to push longer laterals and more complex well profiles, controlling torque and friction becomes increasingly important to overall well success. Drill-Lube Ultra delivers exceptional lubricity to help reduce torque and drag, enhance rate of pe*******on, and support smoother operations from spud to TD. Specifically formulated to perform in today's most demanding drilling applications, it helps operators manage the challenges of extended-reach wells, complex well paths, and harsh downhole conditions with confidence.

Made for the extra mile, Drill-Lube Ultra helps operators push farther, drill longer, and perform when every foot counts. Ready to see the difference in your system? Visit DrillChem.com to learn more or schedule a field trial.
