Today, petroleum alone supplies about 60% of all transportation energy produced in the United States, and 99% of all lubricants. To meet the ever increasing demand for petroleum, drilling of new and deeper wells has become highly important. In drilling these wells, special chemically conditioned mud is employed to cool and lubricate the drill bit, prevent cave-ins, hold back tremendous gas pressures, and for other purposes. Many Victor* Chemicals serve as a helping hand in the conditioning of drill mud as well as in the refining of petroleum.
