|
Halliburton Co. has successfully deployed the industry's first electric grid-powered fracturing operation.
The job, being performed on several pads for Cimarex Energy Co. in the Permian basin, started in November. To date, Halliburton has completed almost 340 stages across multiple wells.
Cimarex Vice President - Permian Business Unit, Michael DeShazer, said, "Cimarex has focused its infrastructure investment on creating operational efficiencies and reducing emissions including ownership of the electrical grid on our Culberson and Reeves County acreage. These investments are enhanced by Halliburton's grid-powered fracturing operation. We look forward to the continued development of this technology with Halliburton across Cimarex's assets."
Michael Segura, vice president of Production Enhancement for Halliburton, added: "Electric fracturing aligns with our goal to provide the industry with lower-carbon intensive solutions and our commitment to a sustainable energy future. With Halliburton's leading electric fracturing capabilities, coupled with an innovative operator like Cimarex, grid power can offer one of the most effective and capital efficient solutions for electric fracturing."
