Shamrock Shipping and Trading is a leading distributor in re-refined base oil supplies. Along with our profound, long-serving experience, we are committed to our sound environmental performance, credentials, and reputation.
Re-refined oils are not dirty, or lesser in quality than pure, they have an increasingly important role to play in developing sustainable eco-friendly options for the industry.
We work closely with refineries all around the world, helping clients deliver on their environmental values.
The re-refining of oils has come a long way since being carried out for the first time in Germany in 1921.
The treatment technology has developed from simple distillation over clay and sulphuric acid, to state-of-the-art hydro-treatment technology now producing higher quality oils as good as or often better than the virgin base stock.
The process of re-refining is aimed at recovering a valuable resource of mineral base oil. It requires the removal of all contaminants and used additives, so the re-refined base oil can then be combined with a fresh additive package to bring it up to industry performance levels.
If you want to understand more about the benefits of using re-refined base oils, our expert team will be happy to help.
Polyacrylamide (PHPA) is one of the latest additives for drilling fluids. By coating the cuttings produced from the wellbore walls, it prevents their excessive dissolution and over-wetting. This feature enhances the stability of the wellbore structure and reduces the dispersion of clay in the drilling fluid, thereby improving drilling performance.

Coating of clay cuttings in the borehole
Preventing excessive dispersion of clay in the drilling fluid
Stabilizing shale formations within the wellbore
