Diamondback Energy, Halliburton Energy Services and VoltaGrid have agreed to deploy four advanced electric simul-frac fleets across the Permian Basin, according to a Dec. 13 press release.
The companies aim to enhance clean and efficient energy solutions in the region, the release said.
VoltaGrid will provide approximately 200 megawatts of electric power to support Diamondback's field operations.
The fleets will integrate Halliburton's 6,000-horsepower all-electric fracturing technology ZEUS with VoltaGrid's advanced power generation systems.
The ZEUS platform includes electric pumping units, Octiv Auto Frac service and Sensori fracture monitoring service.
VoltaGrid will also deploy its high-capacity simul-frac generators and expand its compressed natural gas infrastructure at Diamondback’s microgrid facility, located northeast of Midland, Texas.
VoltaGrid said this will ensure a reliable natural gas feedstock supply, particularly when pipeline gas is unavailable.
“This collaboration reinforces our commitment to driving efficiency and sustainability in oil and gas operations,” said Danny Wesson, executive vice president and COO at Diamondback Energy. “The integration of Halliburton’s innovative electric fracturing technology and VoltaGrid’s cutting-edge power systems allows us to achieve superior performance while significantly reducing our environmental impact.”
