MaverickX Launches: Next-Gen Chemicals That Break Rock to Unlock Valuable Natural Resources

MaverickX recently launched!

^{"More oil. More metals. Smarter chemistry."}

^{TL;DR: MaverickX makes next-generation chemicals that break rock to unlock valuable natural resources — oil and critical metals. They started in mining. Now they have expanded into oil & gas, launching their PetroX™ product line with multiple major operators already under contract.}

Founded by Eric Herrera & Jesse Evans

🔥 The Problem

American energy production has a math problem:

• Only 20% of the oil in unconventional shale wells is recovered – 80% of the oil is still underground
• Operating costs are projected to rise 40% over the next decade, heading toward $95/BBL

And nearly 10% of U.S. oilfield deaths each year are linked to exposure to toxic chemicals still used in daily operations

It’s one of the biggest “old-tech” sectors left untouched by modern science.

‍

⚡ What They Built

MaverickX creates next-gen chemistry that actually removes iron, breaks scale and paraffin, liberates metals and more oil from shale. They reduce operating costs and keep production flowing.

With PetroX, operators are seeing:

• dramatically cleaner systems
• lower operating cost
• reduced downtime
• safer field operations
• and the ability to liberate 50%+ more hydrocarbons in certain shale environments

Their chemistry increases shale porosity by up to 40x, allowing oil to move freely where it previously couldn’t. They aren’t just swapping chemicals — they are rewriting the physics of the reservoir.

‍

⛽ Why Oil & Gas?

Oil is the backbone of their modern economy and demand is only projected to increase.

MaverickX started in mining, building better chemistries to extract metals.
Then the Department of Energy contracted them for a wild project:

“Turn old oil wells into mines. Extract the metals trapped inside.” They did it.

And in that process, they discovered something bigger: Their chemistry didn’t just free metals, it freed hydrocarbons — a lot of them. The moment they saw that, they knew they had to expand into oil & gas. Today they operate in South Texas with production-scale manufacturing and contracts for PetroX™ across multiple operators.

📣 Call to Action

If you operate or know operators of wells, SWDs, or production facilities and want:

• lower operating cost
• fewer shutdowns
• better flow
• safer, non-toxic chemistry
• or more oil out of the rock you already control

They want to run a pilot with you.
