Pressure-pumper Liberty Energy Inc. has followed rig operator Helmerich & Payne (H&P) in U.S. wildcatters Bryan Sheffield and Dick Stoneburner’s development of Australian shale.
Liberty invested US$10 million in Australia-brd Tamboran Resources and plans to send a frac fleet to the play in the Beetaloo Basin next year in northern Australia south of Darwin, Tamboran reported.
Liberty’s entry rounds out the upstream portion of Tamboran’s plan to develop the basin’s Marcellus-like rock—the Mid-Velkerri B—providing frac services in well completion post-H&P drilling.
The frac fleet is expected to arrive in 2024. H&P sent a modern rig, a FlexRig 3, to the play earlier this year.
First responders, the Midland Police Department and the Midland Fire Department were called to a fire located inside the historic Petroleum Building in downtown Midland during the evening hours on Monday.
According to reports, the fire was on the ninth floor of the building. The building owner, David Arrington, said that there were no injuries reported during the incident.
T. S. Hogan, a Montana attorney, rancher and oilman, came to the Permian Basin in 1925 and became active in the oil business. In 1927, Hogan announced the construction of the Petroleum Building.
The Petroleum Building was designed by the Fort Worth architect Wyatt C. Hendrick and completed in 1929. The building has long played a significant role in the history of Midland, as well as casting a significant role in the development of the city.
