Home About Houghton News Case Studies About Houghton Research & Technology Products Industries Served Chemical Management Offshore Technology Houghton has provided high-lubricity hydraulic power fluids since offshore drilling began. In the early 1950s, the U.S. Navy requested that Houghton develop a fire-resistant hydraulic fluid for ultra-high compression applications. That foundation led Houghton’s Houghto-Safe® water-based hydraulic fluid product to become the industry standard. Houghton’s products continue to meet the stringent requirements of the world’s offshore drillers, enabling safe operation of high-compression and critical hydraulic systems. Houghton currently has the largest market share of all blowout preventer (BOP) and motion compensator fluids used in deepwater offshore drilling applications.
