Energy

ICL Innovation seeks early stage innovative technologies, novel materials and cost effective production processes to be incorporated by ICL companies into their products in the areas of PCMs (Phase Change Materials) and energy, in general.

Phase-change materials are crucial to the development of green energy storage solutions. Phase-change materials are those substances with a high heat of fusion which, through their ability to melt and solidify at certain known temperatures, are capable of storing and releasing large amounts of energy. Heat is absorbed or released when the material changes from solid to liquid and vice versa.

OUR CURRENT OFFERINGS IN THE ENERGY FIELD

ICL Industrial Products is a leading producer of bromine based clear brine fluids. ICL-IP’s clear brines are used in oil and gas drilling operations primarily to balance pressures during the final drilling stages of deep wells, which are characterized by extremely high pressures. They also provide lubrication to preserve drilling equipment, circulate and transport solids and increase oil and gas wells efficiency and productivity. 

All of ICL-IP’s clear brines are recyclable and reusable. 

Clear brines are used as completion and drilling fluids by the upstream oil & gas industry and are supplied by ICL-IP to the major service companies.
