Coterra Energy and Halliburton Launch First Fully Automated Hydraulic Fracturing Program

January 06, 2025 08:00 AM Eastern Standard Time

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Halliburton Energy Services (NYSE: HAL) and Coterra Energy Inc. (NYSE: CTRA) announced the launch of autonomous hydraulic fracturing technology in North America with the Octiv® Auto Frac service, which is part of the ZEUS platform. This technology automates stage delivery execution with the push of a button. Coterra is the first operator to fully automate and control their hydraulic fracturing design and execution.

The Octiv Auto Frac service adds new capabilities to Halliburton’s Zeus intelligent fracturing platform and its leading electric pumping units and Sensori™ fracture monitoring service. Before this service, fracture decisions were managed manually while pumping. Coterra can now configure the Octiv Auto Frac service to execute designs to their specifications and automate the entire fracture process.

Coterra and Halliburton recognize the importance of automation for consistency and control during fracture execution. The initial rollout of this service led to a 17% increase in stage efficiency. Based on these results, Coterra deployed the Octiv Auto Frac service to its remaining completion programs that Halliburton executes in the Permian Basin.

“Octiv Auto Frac changes the game of completion performance,” said Shawn Stasiuk, Halliburton’s vice president of Production Enhancement. “The service ensures that automation delivers consistent fracture execution every stage while giving our customers the control they demand over their assets. The Octiv Auto Frac service is the first system to deliver on this promise.”

Coterra’s adoption of the Octiv Auto Frac service aligns with its approach to achieve operational performance through the use of advanced technologies.

“Coterra remains focused on maximizing efficiencies and exploring new opportunities to improve our operations. The deployment of intelligent automation for hydraulic fracturing helps us execute stages consistently and provides us with more autonomy and control over the completion process,” said Tom Jorden, CEO of Coterra.

Octiv Auto Frac provides a step change in fracturing capability. This technology integrated in the ZEUS platform gives operators a unique and powerful solution to maximize consistency and efficiency and increase their asset value.
