The KemFlow XFR

The KemFlow XFR is a series of friction reducers by Sterling Specialty Chemicals that stands out in the realm of high-brine polymer performance, offering an advanced solution for produced water reuse in line with ESG objectives. With exceptional tolerance to high total dissolved solids (TDS) and divalent ions, these polymers optimize water recycling processes, significantly contributing to sustainability in the oil and gas industry.

Superior viscosity enhancement for proppant transport.
Maintains viscosity in high TDS and hardness fluids, ensuring consistent performance across well completions.
High maximum friction reduction (Max FR%) throughout the well length.

Decreases the need for auxiliary equipment compared to powders, reducing capital expenditure.
Produced water tolerance minimizes waste disposal and transportation costs.
Simplifies field operations with a versatile, single-product solution.

cEOR

The choice of chemicals is critical to the overall success of an enhanced oil recovery operation. Our strong R&D capabilities ensure that the appropriate polymer properties are captured for optimal injectivity and sweep efficiency, considering the operating environment and reservoir conditions. By combining our high-quality chemicals with equipment and field services, you get the flexibility and maximum efficiency that your operations need.

Production

Maintaining production and improving operating profitability relies on effective chemical solutions. Our innovative chemical solutions enable you to extend the life of your well and minimize operating costs. With our application expertise and broad product portfolio for water treatment, we can help you treat produced water for reuse or disposal to meet operational and environmental targets.

Water Management

Water management in the oil and gas industry is of growing priority for oil sands mining, stimulation, production and drilling operations. Maximizing water quality for discharge or reuse is often a critical element in meeting the environmental requirements of the process and a key contributor to lowering the total cost of operations. We offer a wide selection of flocculants designed for water and wastewater treatment in oil and gas processes.

Drilling

Drilling mud composition directly contributes to the condition and life of an oil or gas well. Our additives for oil and water-based muds are designed to complement and enhance the performance of our customers’ mud systems, enabling minimum non-production time and improved well performance. Our product portfolio contains polymers designed for a wide range of reservoir and operating conditions.

Stimulation

Hydraulic fracturing is a water-intensive process that relies on chemical additives to ensure efficiency and effectiveness. Our high-performing polymer solutions provide economic, environmental and operational benefits. With strategically located manufacturing, combined with rail transloading, in-basin storage and last mile delivery in all major basins in North America, we are able to get our products to our customers efficiently and cost-effectively.
