SPM™ EdgeX Valve and Carbide Seat - 760 Hours of Seat Life in the Permian
A Permian operator wanted to optimize the maintenance—and associated costs—of its frac equipment and consumables. SPM Oil & Gas proposed a field trial with SPM™ EdgeX Carbide Seats across three sites. The operator ran the engineered carbide seats an average of 655 hours—more than 8X longer than previous seats. One seat lasted 760 hours, setting a record for the longest life of an SPM EdgeX Carbide Seat in North America.

SPM™ EdgeX Valve and Carbide Seat - Permian Basin
The resource-rich Permian Basin is one of the most active plays in North America. Unlike other shale plays, the Permian has greater geologic complexity, which can put increased pressure on equipment and increase consumables costs.

SPM™ EdgeX Valve and Carbide Seat
Trican Well Service Ltd., an oilfield services provider in Western Canada subjects its frac equipment to some of the most challenging conditions found in the industry. It routinely pumps high volumes of proppant at pressures up to 12,500 psi during harsh winter operations (–20°C | –4°F). Standard seats typically have an average life of 80 hours. During a three-month field trial with the SPM™ EdgeX Valve and Carbide Seat, the engineered seats ran a record-breaking 515 hours—a 540% increase compared to previous seats— dramatically increasing safety and nonproductive time.

SPM™ EXL Frac Pump
A service provider wanted to reduce pump-related NPT during hydraulic fracturing treatments in the Haynesville Shale. With extended pumping hours, 13,000-psi treating pressure, and poor sand quality, the company’s pumping equipment required above-average maintenance and downtime. Bringing the highest rod load in its class, the SPM® EXL Frac Pump delivered zero NPT and enabled the operator to increase pumping hours despite the Haynesville’s harsh fracing conditions. With a fleet of SPM® EXL Frac Pumps, the company is estimated to save an hour of pumping time per day—generating a cost savings of more than $1 million per fleet.

SPM™ Edge Bakken
The Bakken formation subjects hydraulic fracturing equipment to a brutal high-pressure environment that is below freezing for multiple months. Temperatures dip as low as -30ºF in the winter, placing additional mechanical and process stress on equipment because it takes longer to warm lubrication fluids. In addition, the region’s multiwell pads require high treating pressures and volumes for efficient stimulation.
