On October 18-20th 2016, ProOne attended The Permian Basin International Oil Show. This is the place to be to stay on top of the latest product developments, services and technologies. Maximizing the ROI is more important than ever to keep our industry vital and vibrant.

The focus has always been on the mechanics, and more recently, software. However, over the past century there is one tool that has received very little faith in the industry. Once thought not powerful enough to make any considerable contribution and be cost effective in savings …drilling fluids.

Over seventy percent of all energy that is delivered by a drilling rig and its surface and downhole equipment to a drill well is lost through friction. Torque, drag, hook load affect operational efficiencies, hindering performance from the drill bit, all the way up the drill string to the mechanical surface equipment, and we all know that if left unmitigated can bring the drilling process to a halt causing hundreds of thousands if not millions in cost.

ProOne has answered the call with a line of advanced drilling lubricants that turn any mud into a super mud. The real tests are in the field, and after 700 wells and a minimum of $300,000 in initial savings, ProOne is proving daily that this much power is no longer theoretical, and you can no longer say “lube is lube.

It’s the innovative cost-saving solution that was never thought possible. Lubrication Technology has finally caught up with the oil & gas drilling industry and is sowing seeds for the next boom. Operators now have the advantage of using what many call “the best secret in the world” in oil drilling.
