TETRA proudly showcased our women in STEM in the First Green Learning Lab alongside GCSAA South Texas Chapter. Visitors who stopped by the Lab learned all about the art of maintaining golf courses and got a glimpse into what TETRA does in the water management and calcium chloride space, and how our work could be applied to the golf course. - Hosted ‘Meet and Greet’ and Town Hall Meeting with Members of the Lafayette County, Arkansas Community
Since the 1980s, TETRA and Arkansas have shared a proud history in the oil and gas industry. On April 25, the ONE TETRA team visited Lafayette County, Arkansas for a ‘Meet & Greet’ and Townhall Meeting with members of the community. We were excited to meet everyone in person and talk about our 40+ year relationship with the state of Arkansas, provide updates on the Evergreen Brine Unit project, and answer questions. - Awarded a 3-Well TETRA CS Neptune Fluids Deepwater Project in the Gulf of Mexico Which Ultimately Contributed $15 Million in Savings for Operator
On June 11, we announced that TETRA secured a three-well deepwater project in the Gulf of Mexico for TETRA CS Neptune fluids with a super-major operator. The award marked a milestone for the Company as it represented the second super-major deepwater operator in the Gulf to use TETRA CS Neptune for their completion program. The use of TETRA CS Neptune ultimately contributed $15 million in savings for the Operator. - Released Bromine Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) With Compelling Economics
The DFS contains positive results including certain financial information on the development of TETRA’s Arkansas bromine assets in the Evergreen Unit based on engineering studies, reservoir analysis, certain cost and revenue assumptions, plus quotes received on major components received or completed to date. - TETRA Employees Donated 400 Pounds of Food for Local Food Bank
TETRA participated in World Food Day and joined the global movement to support food security with a companywide food drive. Our team in The Woodlands, Texas collected 400 lbs of non-perishable food for the Montgomery County Food Bank and volunteered their time at the Food Bank’s warehouse to inspect, sort, and repackage donated food items for community distribution. This meaningful initiative reflects our commitment to addressing food insecurity and supporting local families in need. - Set An All-Time New Record for Volumes of Produced Water Recycled for Frac Re-Use: 800,000 BBL/Day
From automated water recycling systems that economically process produced water to providing on-the-fly water treatment technologies that eliminate bacteria and sulfides prior to fracturing operations, we help ensure consistent water quality throughout completion operations. In Q4 2024, TETRA set an all-time new record of 800,000 bbl/day of produced water recycled for frac re-use. - Introduced TETRA X Corrosion Inhibitor to Market
To address the challenge of mitigating corrosion in deeper, hotter wells, TETRA scientists developed a corrosion inhibiting additive—TETRA X—that withstands high temperatures, especially when used with the high-density and extra-high-density bromide-based fluids needed to counteract the high hydrostatic pressures of very deep wells. - Chemicals Business in Europe Marked 20th Anniversary
October 2024 marked the 20th anniversary of TETRA’s chemicals business in Europe. The story of this enterprise began in 2004, when TETRA established its chemicals business in Europe with its main office in Helsingborg, Sweden, and a production facility in Kokkola, Finland. In pursuing the business, TETRA sought to market calcium chloride outside the United States—where it had been selling the product for decades—and further expand its market to food, beverage, agriculture, and various technical applications. - Recognized by Oxy for Successfully Achieving 153 Hours and 45 Minutes of Continuous Pumping in West Texas
Our ONE TETRA water transfer crew in West Texas was recognized by Oxy for breaking a significant record. We successfully achieved an impressive 153 hours and 45 minutes of continuous pumping. This achievement is a testament to our team’s ability to maintain operational efficiency, minimize downtime, and deliver consistent results, all while ensuring safety and seamless alignment with OXY’s standards. - Secured Multi-Well, Multi-Year Deepwater Completion Fluids Contract Brazil
We continued to build our backlog of deepwater projects by securing a significant multi-well, multi-year deep water completion fluids contract in Brazil. This was our second significant deepwater Brazil contract in the past three years and established us as the high-density offshore completion fluids market leader in Brazil. - TETRA Employees in The Woodlands, TX Raised Nearly $12k for Alzheimer’s Association
TETRA raised nearly $12,000 for the 2024 Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s® in The Woodlands.

For four consecutive years, an independent survey of oil and gas operators in the Gulf of Mexico recognized TETRA as the top performing service provider of completion fluids with the highest customer loyalty rating. Why do customers choose us? According to the survey, TETRA excels in technical support and service, responsiveness, and availability of fluids. - Water Management Automation Helped Operator Reduce Labor by 40% & Improve Pump Efficiency on Water Transfer Job in Permian
An operator sought a more efficient and reliable means of water transfer at an expansive pad site located on land containing livestock and other wildlife species. TETRA automated the water management and installed 13 miles of TETRA Steel lay-flat hose that ultimately transferred 50,000 barrels of water per day. TETRA’s solution helped reduce labor by 40%. - Delivered First Full Electrolyte for Energy Storage
To support the fast-growing need for commercial energy storage, TETRA pioneered its TETRA PureFlow ultra-pure zinc bromide for use in grid-scale storage systems and solar power battery storage. TETRA believes it is the only producer of commercial quantities of zinc bromide in the United States and manufactures PureFlow zinc bromide using a proprietary process at its chemical plant in West Memphis, Arkansas. - Partnered with Fundacion YPF in Argentina to Provide Internship Opportunities to the Students of Rincón de los Sauces
