  • "This will optimise run times, provide greater efficiency, maximise flow and rate and align timing for maintenance, helping lower overall operational costs. Through the JV, Weir and MTU will also be able to offer a full system warranty," the spokesperson said.

    "Re-fracking is definitely in our vision but so far it seems to be a niche that needs time to be proven out from a return standpoint. As far as we see it, our system will provide the necessary flow and rate to execute any new wells and wells that are re-opened for re-fracking if this development proves out over time," the spokesperson added.

    "The system will also meet the ever changing demands of our customers. As more wells are drilled, frac operators face changing geology, deeper wells and demand for more stages to be fracked," the spokesperson said. "Our system meets these challenges by bringing market leading flow and rate to execute the jobs of today and into the future in a reliable and durable way."
