ChampionX Corporation’s US Synthetic Corp. wins legal battle as U.S. Court of Appeals overturns prior ruling deeming patent claims ineligible. The case involves a polycrystalline diamond compact used in rotary drill bits showing superior diamond bonding. The International Trade Commission initially rejected claims as abstract, but the Federal Circuit disagreed, citing a specific composition of matter. President Rob Galloway praises ruling, emphasizing innovation’s importance in drilling efficiency. US Synthetic, a ChampionX segment, provides high-quality PDC cutters, bearings, valves, and mining tools for challenging oil projects. ChampionX offers global chemistry solutions and engineered technologies for safe, efficient oil and gas production.
