Company overview

Manufacture focus, service offers:
Wintershall is active all over the world. Whether in the Libyan desert, the high waves of the North Sea or the permafrost of Siberia. Wintershall's home is Germany. Here the company researches technologies for use all over the world. But with a long tradition, Germany is much more than that - the domestic production areas are among the most important regions for Wintershall in the exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas. To date, Wintershall's operations in Germany alone have produced as much oil as Saudi Arabia supplies in 20 years. And over 70 billion cubic meters of natural gas. Wintershall is a wholly owned subsidiary of the world's largest chemical company BASF in Ludwigshafen.
Technology usage:
Wintershall's research center in Germany is located in the tranquil Barnstorf region near Bremen. Here, our experts work closely with scientific partners to test new production methods that make it possible, for example, to extract more and more oil from a reservoir or to continually optimize environmental and safety standards. Following the successful completion of pilot projects, Wintershall is scoring points with the new technologies in international projects.
Know-how:
The extraction of oil and gas in Germany is often difficult and technologically demanding. It requires great technological expertise and prudent action. Wintershall has developed outstanding technological expertise through its daily work with high safety and environmental standards, which has become an important entry ticket to major international projects. In particular, research into increasing the degree of oil recovery from oil reservoirs and the production of natural gas from tight gas reservoirs are important fields of research.
Annotations:
Wintershall Dea GmbH, based in Kassel, is a wholly owned subsidiary of BASF in Ludwigshafen and has been active in the extraction of raw materials for 120 years, more than 85 years of which have been in the exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas. Wintershall concentrates on selected key regions in which the company has a high level of regional and technological expertise.

The company aims to further expand its business through exploration and production, selected partnerships, innovation and technological expertise.
