VoltaGrid partnering with Diamondback and Halliburton to power fracking operations

Diamondback Energy, Halliburton Energy Services, and VoltaGrid LLC have entered into an agreement to deploy four advanced electric simul-frac fleets across the Permian Basin.

The electric simul-frac fleets integrate Halliburton’s ZEUS 6,000-horsepower all-electric fracturing technology with VoltaGrid’s advanced power generation systems, creating a high-performance, low-carbon solution tailored to the demands of the Permian Basin.

This collaboration represents a significant investment in clean and efficient energy solutions, with VoltaGrid delivering approximately 200 megawatts of electric power to support Diamondback Energy’s field operations.

“This collaboration reinforces our commitment to driving efficiency and sustainability in oil and gas operations,” Danny Wesson, Diamondback executive vice president and COO, said in a statement. 

Under the agreement, VoltaGrid will deploy its next-generation, high-capacity simul-frac generators and expand its compressed natural gas infrastructure at Diamondback Energy’s 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.

“We are proud to deepen our collaboration with Diamondback Energy and Halliburton, expanding the adoption of electric frac technology in the Permian Basin,” said Nathan Ough, CEO of VoltaGrid.
