100% Natural Gas Generators on Drilling Rigs Dual Fuel Frac Spreads Lithium Batteries on Drilling Rigs Highline Power Automated Engine Management Software

Natural gas engines run on 100% natural gas Also able to utilize local natural gas infrastructure already available thereby reducing the need for diesel fuel transportation and consumption 65+ rigs have already been converted to enable the use of natural gas Dual fuel engines offer fuel flexibility with a fuel mixture of up to 70% natural gas (i.e. natural gas when available and diesel when needed)

Tier IV spreads can substitute up to 85% natural gas Lowers emissions for environmental sustainability PTEN has completed more than 17,000 dual fuel fracturing stages, saving customers more than 13 million gallons of diesel

Patterson-UTI provides in-house electrical engineering, hardware packaging, and installation services to power our rigs off of electric utility lines This full-service offering enables our customers to utilize an optimal power solution on our drilling rig when it comes to emission impacts at the wellsite

Eco-Cell™ is an energy management system that uses stored energy to decrease the number of generators needed online, and keeps the generators running in the most efficient range where they produce the lowest emissions levels and best fuel economy Eco-Cell™ stores energy in lithium batteries when demand is lower than the generator capacity and provides supplemental power to the rig when demand exceeds capacity…all the while maintaining a steady and optimized load on the generators By leveraging stored energy, Eco-Cell™ can optimize fuel efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint of the rig
