Completion services and Permian Basin focus
ProPetro describes itself as serving leading upstream oil and gas companies engaged in the exploration and production of North American unconventional resources. The company’s news releases highlight activity in the Permian Basin, where its completions business deploys hydraulic fracturing fleets. ProPetro has referenced Tier IV dual-fuel and FORCE® electric-powered hydraulic fracturing fleets, and has discussed operating multiple active frac fleets under long-term contracts.
Management commentary in quarterly results emphasizes an “industrialized operating model,” a capital-light approach in the completions business, and a focus on free cash flow generation from that segment. The company has also discussed idling certain fleets rather than operating at sub-economic levels when market conditions are challenging, indicating an emphasis on disciplined utilization of hydraulic fracturing capacity.
PROPWR power services platform
A major development for ProPetro is the creation of its PROPWR℠ division, described as a Midland, Texas-based provider of reliable, adaptable power services through a modern, standardized fleet of gas-to-power solutions. Company press releases state that PROPWR serves oil and gas operators and data center operators in the United States, including projects in the Permian Basin and the Midwest region.
PROPWR’s business model, as described by the company, centers on turnkey power generation for distributed microgrid installations and in-field power needs where utility power is unavailable or insufficient. In its inaugural contract, PROPWR committed 80 megawatts of power generation capacity to a Permian-focused exploration and production operator, delivering power to a distributed microgrid installation using in-field gas. The scope of service under that agreement includes assets, onsite operations, maintenance, monitoring, an availability guarantee, and take-or-pay obligations supporting PROPWR’s capacity commitment.
Subsequent announcements describe PROPWR securing a long-term contract to provide 60 megawatts of power to a hyperscaler data center operator in the Midwest region of the United States, using a hybrid energy system that combines battery energy storage solutions with high-efficiency natural gas reciprocating engine generators. PROPWR has also announced a contract to supply power to a subsidiary of Coterra Energy Inc. in the New Mexico portion of the Permian Basin through distributed microgrids.
Power equipment portfolio and financing
Across its press releases and SEC filings, ProPetro reports that PROPWR has ordered and committed significant megawatt capacity of power generation equipment. Company statements describe an equipment portfolio that includes high-efficiency natural gas reciprocating engine generators and low-emissions modular turbines. PROPWR has reported increasing its delivered or on-order capacity over time and has discussed expectations for additional orders to support growth in oilfield and data center power projects.
An 8-K filed on December 30, 2025, describes an Interim Funding Agreement and Master Lease Agreement with Stonebriar Commercial Finance LLC. Under this arrangement, a ProPetro subsidiary has the right, but not the obligation, to fund up to $350 million of purchases of power generator equipment. The filing explains that Stonebriar provides funding for down payments and progress payments to equipment suppliers, holds legal title to leased equipment, and leases that equipment back to ProPetro’s subsidiary under multiyear lease terms, with options for early termination and purchase.
Capital allocation and financial profile
In quarterly earnings releases, ProPetro highlights the role of its completions business in generating free cash flow and supporting investments in PROPWR. The company has discussed maintaining a strong cash and liquidity position, using an asset-based lending credit facility, and managing capital expenditures between maintenance spending in the completions segment and growth spending for PROPWR equipment orders.
ProPetro has also disclosed a share repurchase program authorized at $200 million, noting that it has repurchased a portion of its outstanding common stock since the program’s inception. At various points, the company has indicated that it prioritized funding the launch and scaling of PROPWR over additional share repurchases in specific quarters.
Strategic positioning

The company emphasizes its presence in the Permian Basin, its relationships with upstream oil and gas customers, and its efforts to transition to next-generation technologies, including FORCE® electric fracturing fleets and gas-fueled power generation assets.
