The problem
Every year, thousands of tons of chemicals are used in oil production. Most of these are toxic and non-biodegradable, creating long-term risks for workers, communities, and the environment. Regulations are tightening, and operators are under pressure to find safer, sustainable alternatives without sacrificing performance.
Our solution
Biodegradable chemistry that works in the field
ChemSust offers non-toxic, biodegradable solutions for a range of upstream applications. Our products help reduce operational costs by up to 20%, increase oil production by 5–10%, and ensure full compliance with environmental regulations.
What ChemSust delivers
We design chemistry that is both effective and responsible.
- Drop-in solutions for existing upstream workflows
- Support for field trials and technical evaluation
- Data-driven performance monitoring
How it works
We combine naturally derived resources with green chemistry principles to create high-performance products for demanding oilfield conditions.
We start from naturally occurring, bio-based resources that provide the backbone for our formulations.
We use green chemistry methods to formulate products that minimize waste and avoid harmful by-products.
The result is a portfolio of ready-to-use products for upstream applications, designed for real operational conditions.
Key benefits
Our goal is to improve performance while reducing environmental and operational risks.
- Reduce OPEX cost by 20%
- Enhance oil recovery by 10–15%
- Reduce corrosion by 87%
- Bioderived and biodegradable
