U.S. Well Services Inc. has executed a contract on Jan. 29 to provide electric hydraulic fracturing services for Range Resources Corp. using its next-generation Clean Fleet technology, which runs on electric power generated by natural gas turbine generators on the wellsite.
Under the terms of the agreement, U.S. Well Services will support Range Resources in the development of its Appalachian asset base on a dedicated basis into 2021. Range has nearly a million net acres across the Appalachian Basin in Pennsylvania, most of which has stacked pay potential for the Marcellus, Utica and Upper Devonian shale formations, according to the company website.
