The hydraulic fracturing process, or fracking, efficiently extracts crude oil and gas trapped in shale rock formations. This guide covers hydraulic frac equipment, features and applications, and the chemicals and fluids used in fracturing operations. How Does Hydraulic Fracking Work? Hydraulic fracturing operations involve drilling a vertical well at least a mile below the earth’s […]
The oil and gas industry has been using frac pumps to perform vertical drilling for decades. However, traditional frac pumps do not provide enough power to drill through shale rock formations, which is necessary for modern hydraulic fracking and horizontal drilling. Modern frac pumps require better lubrication mechanisms to function in higher pressures and for […]
