StratoChem Services

StratoChem Services is the fastest geochemistry service provider in the world. With the largest independent laboratory facilities in the Middle East and Africa, and a swiftly growing presence in North America, StratoChem is the geochemistry provider of choice for numerous E&P companies as well as other petroleum service companies around the world. StratoChem offers a wide array of source rock, oil, and gas analytical and interpretive services, including many unique offerings like one-run kinetics and reservoir continuity fingerprinting that have powerful applications for today's unconventional plays. No matter where samples come from, StratoChem generates geochemical data and interpretation faster than anybody, providing the petroleum industry with the exploration information it needs in a timeframe that can shape decision-making and save our clients millions. Founded in 1989 by two experienced Egyptian geoscientists, Mohamed Said and Tarek El-Azhary, StratoChem is proud to be celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. Knowing that even simple geochemical analyses could reveal previously undiscovered resources and quickly screen out uneconomic prospects, the pair set out to bring their home country the geochemistry services it lacked. Starting with little more than the money in their pockets, the two built StratoChem into a world-class provider of petroleum analysis and interpretation through unwavering dedication to quality and hard work. Today, StratoChem stands as the largest independently-owned laboratory in the Middle East and North Africa, benefiting the upstream industry in our region and around the world.
