Enverus reports U.S. shale oil production at approximately 7.5 million barrels per day. To reach the oil in these tight formations, operators pump huge volumes of water into the rock through fracking, so that hydrocarbons can flow more freely to the surface. With some basins producing between 7 and 10 times as much water to…
Just as one Oklahoma operator was at their wit’s end due to repeated equipment failures, Valiant helped them achieve reliable ESP run life on a well previously believed to be too problematic to produce. LOCATION: Wilcox Formation, Pawnee, Oklahoma APPLICATION: High Sand Production, Abrasive Well Conditions Causing Broken Shaft Failures In the span of one…
