OILFIELD CHEMICALS
Kraton’s world-class portfolio of engineered polymers and sustainable chemicals enables oilfield service and technology providers to excel in increasingly challenged environments. Kraton delivers products to all the major application segments in the oilfield, including drilling, completion, stimulation, and production. We bring value by developing tailored solutions for demanding applications or by delivering quality products efficiently and consistently.
Oilfield
Chemicals
Drawing on our rich legacy as the inventor of styrenic block copolymers (SBC), we are well-positioned to continue our commitment to innovation by advancing polymer technology in the oilfield. SBC are engineered polymers designed to enhance your system’s performance by improving mechanical or rheological properties. As the world’s largest producer of pine chemicals, including tall oil fatty acid, tall oil rosin, distilled tall oil, terpenes, and polyamides, Kraton is uniquely positioned to service the oil and gas market.
