Halliburton joins with Diamondback, VoltaGrid to deploy electric simul-frac fleets across Permian

December 16, 2024

Diamondback Energy, Halliburton Energy Services and VoltaGrid LLC have entered into a landmark agreement to deploy four advanced electric simul-frac fleets across the Permian basin. This collaboration represents a significant investment in clean and efficient energy solutions, with VoltaGrid delivering approximately 200 megawatts (MW) of electric power to support Diamondback Energy鈥檚 field operations. This marks a continuation of a longstanding partnership focused on sustainability and operational excellence.

The electric simul-frac fleets will integrate Halliburton鈥檚 ZEUS鈩 6,000-horsepower (HHP) all-electric fracturing technology with VoltaGrid鈥檚 advanced power generation systems, creating a high-performance, low-carbon solution tailored to the demands of the Permian basin. The ZEUS platform comprises electric pumping units, Octiv Auto Frac service, and Sensori鈩 fracture monitoring service.

Under the agreement, VoltaGrid will deploy its next-generation, high-capacity simul-frac generators and expand its compressed natural gas (CNG) infrastructure at Diamondback Energy鈥檚 microgrid facility. This will ensure a reliable natural gas feedstock supply, particularly when pipeline gas is unavailable. This infrastructure expansion underscores a shared commitment to enhancing operational reliability while minimizing emissions.

鈥淭his collaboration reinforces our commitment to driving efficiency and sustainability in oil and gas operations,鈥 said Danny Wesson, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at Diamondback Energy. 鈥淭he integration of Halliburton鈥檚 innovative electric fracturing technology and VoltaGrid鈥檚 cutting-edge power systems allows us to achieve superior performance while significantly reducing our environmental impact.鈥

鈥淗alliburton鈥檚 ZEUS electric fracturing platform, combined with VoltaGrid鈥檚 flexible and reliable power infrastructure, sets a new benchmark for efficiency and environmental responsibility,鈥 said Casey Maxwell, Senior Vice President of North America Land at Halliburton. 鈥淥ur ZEUS platform combines electric automation and insights to maximize asset value for our customers. This offering is a step-change in fracture execution.鈥

鈥淲e are proud to deepen our collaboration with Diamondback Energy and Halliburton, expanding the adoption of electric frac technology in the Permian Basin,鈥 said Nathan Ough, CEO of VoltaGrid. 鈥淥ur expanded infrastructure and advanced power systems provide the reliability and performance required to support the most demanding completion designs while driving meaningful emissions reductions.鈥
