Chevron Technology Ventures' Catalyst program selects RapiCure
RapiCure Solutions, Inc. (RapiCure), innovators of a highly effective rapid-curing resin technology, announced it has been selected by Chevron Technology Ventures (CTV) for its Catalyst Program™ aimed at accelerating technology innovation within the energy sector. Launched in 2017, CTV's Catalyst Program accelerates the growth and maturation of early-stage companies working on technologies that have the potential to benefit the energy industry.
"For RapiCure, being chosen by Chevron Technology Ventures for this Program and working with Chevron on potential use cases, combined with the program's overall supportive guidance and milestone model, aligns perfectly with our go-to-market strategy. It also strengthens the value that we can bring to operators and product manufacturers in the energy sector," explained Heather Rubin, CEO & Founder of RapiCure Solutions. "For energy companies and the firms that service them, Chevron's support allows us to continue advancing the development and deployment of our first-of-its-kind resin technology designed to address the gap between speed and performance for integrity management, transforming repair and maintenance times into just minutes vs hours or days, thereby saving operators significant time and money while protecting critical assets for generations to come."
RapiCure's patented rapid-curing epoxy alternative technology delivers a step change from traditional epoxy-like approaches through a robust self-propagating curing platform. Designed to plug, seal, wrap, or repair critical assets such as pipelines in minutes, RapiCure's Medusa™ line of tape and resin kits helps significantly reduce operational maintenance costs. Its versatile formulation can be applied to a wide range of surfaces, from steel to concrete, and fully cures in challenging conditions, including high humidity, rain, and broad temperature ranges.
The company has partnered with established product manufacturers of coatings, plastics, and composites looking for increased product performance and sustainability or organizations looking to incorporate their patented resin into bidded projects or to use in other product formats. The market readiness and technical superiority of RapiCure's platform are underscored by global utility/municipal deployment and first-place recognition at the 2025 Global Oil and Gas Cleantech Challenge.
