Episode 42 Nanotechnology in Oil & Gas: The Future of Drilling Innovation with Vitaly Sergeev

Phil sits down with Vitaly Sergeev, founder of Nanoborne, to explore what happens when cutting-edge nanotechnology meets one of the world's most risk-averse industries. Vitaly breaks down why oil & gas resists change, how flow control is reshaping field development, and what it took to spend six years turning a lab-built nanoemulsion into a real market product. They also cover the challenges of breaking into the conservative US energy market and how AI and machine learning are helping them scale and survive long adoption cycles.
