Our expert details how Hiway Flex technology creates infinite fracture conductivity that increases production

How do we go beyond horsepower for such a diverse set of customers and reservoirs with one flexible system?

Hiway Flex™ customizable flow-channel fracturing technology is an evolution of the original HiWAY technique. Its flexibility comes with the ability to customize the stimulation design, as well as the different chemistries and proppant options, to provide a program that will meet your production and recovery needs. It's a new way of thinking and approaching stimulation.

This technology fundamentally changes the way proppant fractures generate conductivity. It creates open pathways inside the fracture, enabling hydrocarbons to flow through stable channels rather than through the proppant. This improvement optimizes connectivity between the reservoir and the wellbore, creating fractures with higher conductivity than traditional approaches.

Hiway Flex technology can also help you meet your sustainability goals, reducing the carbon intensity of stimulation operations by up to 25% and decreasing proppant requirements by up to 40%.
