In a statement commenting on the promotion, Sledge said: “I appreciate the confidence and support of Phillip and the board, and look forward to working closely with Adam, David and other members of executive management, as well as the full team at ProPetro, as we capitalize on opportunities to improve the business, while continuing to provide our customers unsurpassed and safe execution at the well site.”
