In May 2026, Unitech Chemicals (Kaiping) Co., Ltd. and Unitech Chemicals (USA) participated in the Offshore Technology Conference in Houston, one of the world’s most influential events for the offshore energy industry. The exhibition provided an important platform for the company to strengthen relationships with international customers, exchange technical insights, and further expand its presence in global drilling fluid markets.
OTC 2026 brought together energy companies, drilling contractors, oilfield service providers, and technical professionals from around the world. During the event, the Unitech team held in-depth discussions with customers and partners from North America, Middle East, Latin America, and Africa, focusing on drilling fluid performance requirements, environmental compliance, and long-term supply cooperation.
As global drilling activity continues to recover, operators are placing greater emphasis on drilling fluid systems capable of performing under increasingly challenging conditions, including:
· High-temperature and high-pressure (HTHP) wells
· Shale formations and unstable wellbores
· High-salinity environments
· Extended-reach and deep wells
· Environmentally sensitive projects
At OTC 2026, Unitech highlighted how its drilling fluid additives support both oil-based mud (OBM) and water-based mud (WBM) systems in demanding field applications.
Unitech additives help maintain effective filtration control under high-temperature and high-salinity conditions, reducing formation damage and improving wellbore stability.
Specialized inhibitors minimize shale hydration and swelling, helping reduce wellbore collapse, cavings, and stuck pipe risks.
Products optimize low-shear viscosity and cuttings transport efficiency, supporting smoother circulation and more stable drilling fluid systems.
Additives enhance suspension of barite and drilled solids, reducing sag and improving operational safety during static periods.
Formulations are designed to retain rheological and filtration performance in elevated downhole temperatures.
Through Unitech Chemicals (Kaiping) and Unitech Chemicals (USA), the company continues to strengthen its global service network and technical support capabilities.
Recent overseas activities include:
· Technical meetings with international drilling fluid companies and oilfield service providers
