Company utilizing tri-fueling operations

↳ Why This Matters

This development highlights innovative solutions for reducing operational costs in the oil and gas industry by leveraging on-site resources, potentially impacting fuel consumption patterns and cost structures in fracking operations.

Key facts

  • Pioneer Energy's field gas conditioning systems are being deployed.
  • These systems support Rolfson Oil's tri-fueling operations.
  • The goal is to lower fracking fuel costs.
  • Field gas will be used in place of diesel and CNG.

Pioneer Energy is supplying its field gas conditioning systems to Rolfson Oil, enabling the latter to implement tri-fueling strategies. This approach involves using natural gas directly from the field as a fuel source for fracking operations, thereby reducing reliance on more expensive alternatives like diesel and compressed natural gas (CNG). The deployment is expected to lead to significant cost savings in fuel expenses for fracking activities.

Frequently asked questions

These systems process raw natural gas from the field to make it suitable for use as fuel, removing impurities and adjusting its composition.

Tri-fueling refers to the capability of equipment to run on three different fuel sources, in this case, field gas, diesel, and CNG.

It eliminates the transportation and purchase costs associated with diesel and CNG, utilizing a readily available resource on-site.
