Ramex AS is a Norwegian company based in Stavanger, established in 1993 as a limited liability firm specializing in oilfield chemicals and services for the oil and gas industry, particularly on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS).
Founded by Eivind Rafoss in partnership with Roemex Limited, a UK-based provider of specialty chemicals since 1984, Ramex focuses on developing and supplying products tailored to offshore challenges. Its portfolio includes Roemex specialty chemicals such as lubricants (e.g., RX-72TL brine lubricant, Hyperglide), wellbore cleaners, viscosifiers, production chemicals for corrosion, scale, and wax control, and hydrotest solutions like oxygen scavengers and corrosion inhibitors. Certified to ISO 9001:2015 and compliant with Norsok S-006, these products emphasize environmental compatibility and operational efficiency.
Additionally, since 2015, Ramex represents Ruma Products' oblique swellable elastomer seals, used in open-hole completions, fracturing, steam injection, and water management as alternatives to mechanical packers.
Ramex supplies major operators like Equinor under framework agreements for drilling and well services, supporting sustained production on the NCS.
