Under the contract, Halliburton ( HAL ) said it will utilize its Zeus electric fracturing services in its first international deployment and include its Octiv Auto Frac service, part of its Octiv digital fracturing services operating environment that delivers consistent onsite execution while pumping. Halliburton ( HAL ) said the integrated approach establishes a new benchmark for international unconventional fracturing, combining electrification, automation, and advanced digital workflows to improve efficiency, consistency, and emissions-intensity reduction efforts. "This award significantly increases our footprint in Argentina and reflects our customers' confidence in Halliburton to deliver large-scale unconventional fracturing through technology leadership and operational excellence," the company's Western Hemisphere president Casey Maxwell said. The Vaca Muerta shale play in Argentina's Neuquén Basin holds the world's second-largest shale gas and fourth-largest shale oil reserves.
