Highlights:
- Capacity & Services: Up to 50 MW of robust, scalable power integrated with Flotek's proprietary PWRtek advanced gas distribution and smart conditioning skids for seamless fuel management and real-time optimization.
- Contract Consideration: Revenue during the initial six-month term will be determined by the customer's final power requirements, which may total up to 50 MW, as well as the timing of equipment scaling and deployment. If the full 50 MW were to be deployed for the entire six-month term, the Company expects contract revenue would total approximately
$1 million
Equipment deployment is expected to ramp over several weeks following the designated contract start date, allowing for phased installation and operational integration. The Company will provide additional updates regarding anticipated power requirements, deployment timing, and expected financial impact upon completion of all required technical, environmental, and operational assessments. - Duration: The six-month initial term is expected to begin during the second quarter of 2026 (with customer option to extend an additional 4 years at the same monthly rental rate).
Under the current contract, Flotek will supply and mobilize cutting-edge smart conditioning skids and advanced gas distribution equipment in support of deploying an up to 50 MW power solution. These proprietary components revolutionize fuel delivery: the smart conditioning skids automatically detect and neutralize liquid slugs or high-BTU contaminants, ensuring continuous, optimized performance with integrated BTU metering and emergency shutdown safeguards; while, the gas distribution skid provides independent fuel control to each genset, allowing seamless maintenance without interrupting the power flow and guaranteeing uptime even in harsh conditions. This powerhouse setup will energize a newly constructed residential location and support local critical infrastructure.
"This contract is a major milestone showcasing Flotek's expertise in delivering large-scale, high-reliability utilities infrastructure support under tough conditions," said Ryan Ezell, CEO of Flotek Industries. "Combining powerful natural gas powered gensets with our proprietary PWRtek platform—featuring smart conditioning skids, real-time analytics, and advanced gas distribution—we're providing a safe, efficient, high-uptime solution built for critical power recovery. This opportunity highlights strong demand for our advanced power technologies in emergency and infrastructure markets as we continue to advance our corporate strategy through the convergence of real-time data and chemistry solutions."
