Provides hydraulic fracturing and pressure pumping services to US onshore oil & gas producers, expanding into gas-fired power.
Contracts out crews and pumping equipment to oil and gas producers, priced per job or under dedicated-fleet agreements, so earnings follow customers' drilling budgets and how many fleets sit idle. Most customers are producers in a handful of US basins, and fleet efficiency counts because pricing is competitive.
Moat: narrow (scale, installed base). Modern, efficient fracturing fleet, but a highly cyclical, commoditized service market.
