Services
Horizontal Drilling
Specialized horizontal drilling services for complex well development. Our team has drilled over 1,500 horizontal wells across multiple formations including Barnett Shale and Granite Wash. Utilizing advanced geosteering techniques, we maximize reservoir exposure while minimizing surface footprint. This expertise enables clients to access challenging hydrocarbon reserves efficiently and cost-effectively.
Fracture Stimulation
Comprehensive fracture stimulation design and supervision. We've executed tens of thousands of lateral stage fracks, optimizing production from tight formations. Our engineers develop customized treatment plans using the latest proppant and fluid technologies. This service helps operators maximize well productivity while maintaining regulatory compliance and environmental safety.
Disposal Well Services
Full-cycle disposal well drilling and completion services. We pioneered the first 50,000 bpd Ellenberger SWD wells in West Texas, setting new industry standards. Our engineers design systems for safe, efficient produced water disposal while ensuring long-term well integrity. This critical service supports ongoing production operations across multiple basins.
Production Optimization
Advanced production evaluation and enhancement services. Our team analyzes well performance data to identify optimization opportunities. We implement artificial lift solutions and recompletion strategies to maximize recovery rates. This service helps operators improve field economics through data-driven production improvements.
Regulatory Compliance
Comprehensive regulatory support for oil and gas operations. We manage permitting processes and prepare required documentation for state agencies. Our team helped Texas Railroad Commission map geology into basement granite formations. This service ensures operational compliance while streamlining project timelines.
