Houston-based Surge Energy said June 3 it recently completed a multi-zone project in the Moss Creek field in Howard County using dual fuel completions. The project included a 5-well pad with a compressed natural gas and diesel dual fuel system that yielded greenhouse gas emissions reduction of about 845 metric tons of CO2e emissions. Surge also plans to introduce an electric hydraulic fracturing fleet in 2021 to further reduce GHG emissions.
CEO Linhua Guan said, “The use of CNG and diesel dual fuel-powered fracking is the latest example of Surge’s culture of innovation. Using dual fuel completions and (our) plans to further reduce GHG emissions with an electric frac fleet demonstrate Surge’s commitment to sustainability.” Surge, independent company focused on Midland Basin, currently holds about 110,000 net acres.
