Ingrain Inc.

About

Ingrain Inc. was a prominent provider of digital rock characterization services for the upstream oil and gas industry. Founded in 2007 and based in Houston, Texas, the company operated in Brazil, Colombia, and Abu Dhabi. Ingrain specialized in advanced imaging technology to analyze the physical properties and fluid flow characteristics of rocks from petroleum reservoirs, focusing on aspects like porosity, permeability, electrical resistivity, and elasticity. The company offered a range of services centered on digital rock physics. This included digital rock characterization, which provided geoscientists and reservoir engineers with insights into reservoir properties, and sophisticated imaging techniques to compute essential rock characteristics. Ingrain formed strategic partnerships to enhance its capabilities and expand its reach, serving operators globally to address exploration challenges, particularly in shale and complex conventional rock formations. In July 2017, Ingrain was acquired by Halliburton, concluding its operations as an independent entity.
