AKZO NOBEL

Polyanionic Cellulose (PAC) Carboxymethylated Cellulose (CMC). The PAC products are available in pure and tech grades. These products come in a regular and low viscosity grade. The CMC products are available only in a tech grade, with three viscosity materials: extra high viscosity [EHV]; high viscosity [HV]; low viscosity [LV].

 

AQUASOL

Carboxymethylated starch [CM Starch] and pregelatinized drilling grade starch.

 

CARGILL INC.

Xanthan gum

 

CORSICANA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Oil mud emulsifiers, fatty amines and their derivatives for corrosion control.

 

EAGLE PICHER MINERALS

Loss circulation plugs, anti caking agent, cements

Natural, calcined and flux calcined diatomaceous earth

 

ELEMENTIS SPECIALTIES

Bentonite and hectorite base organoclays. Rheological modifiers for oil and synthetic drilling muds, drill-in fluids, stimulation fluids, completion, packer and workover fluids. Special processed clays for water based systems. Polymeric modifiers for anti-settling and rheological control at various shear rates and temperatures. Amine-treated lignite for high temperature high pressure [HTHP] filtration control for oil based muds.

 

FRANKLIN INDUSTRIAL MINERALS

Sized calcium carbonate for completion and drill-in fluids.

 

K. T. MINERALS

Amorphous alumina silicates and micro-bubbles for cement

The Fluids Specialties Group’s role within RMC is clearly stated in its mission statement: To expand and provide RMC’s customers with quality products for all fluids used in the exploration of oil and gas for improved fluid performance to aid in the reduction of overall well costs.
