ProPetro (PUMP) Orders 50 Tier IV DGB Pumping Unit for $74M
Read MoreHide Full Article
ProPetro Holding Corp. (PUMP - Free Report) recently announced a $74-million contract for 50 Tier IV Dynamic Gas Blending (DGB) pumping unit conversions. The 50 pumping units will be utilized in transforming the current Tier II diesel units into Tier IV DGB dual-gas engines to trim toxic emissions. Deliveries of the same will start this December and continue until the early part of 2022.
ProPetro's dedication to these conversions exemplifies its commitment to providing top-tier efficiency and dependence on hydraulic fracturing services in the Permian Basin as well as offering ESG-friendly solutions to its clients.
Dual-gas fleets continue to be popular in the market. These units will also improve ProPetro's ESG profile and service portfolio by supplying improved and more efficient engines that will replace diesel and reduce emissions by expanding natural gas use in frac operations.
The present supply-chain stress according to ProPetro will continue to lengthen delivery delays for essential oilfield equipment until 2022 while the danger of inflation threatens to shoot up costs even higher. As a result, the company decided to move forward a commitment of $74 million in expected capex of $74 million for 2022 to ensure that the company's next-year equipment conversion plans are completed on time. These modifications will complement the existing equipment's continuing maintenance plans.
The first $30 million of the $74 million will be paid in 2021 with the rest coming in during the first half of 2022 as deliveries proceed. The company now anticipates incurred capital expenditures for 2021 to be around $145-$160 million. ProPetro's total available liquidity, which includes cash and available capacity under the company's revolving line of credit, was more than $130 million as of Sep 28, 2021.
ProPetro announced plans to undertake significant supply-chain investments in its latest earnings report. The aforementioned orders support management's earlier-made promises and justify the price rise all over the company's service suite during the preceding months. The company's capital discipline and balance sheet strength with zero debt allowed it to make these astute investments at this crucial moment.
