DESCRIPTION

How do you transform electric frac from a bold idea into one of the largest pressure pumping platforms in the U.S.?

 

Live from the Daniel Energy Partners Thrive Energy Conference, host Josh Lowry sits down with Steven Anderson, President & CEO of Evolution Well Services, to discuss the company’s next chapter.

 

From its founding in Canada in 2011 to becoming the fifth-largest pressure pumper in the U.S., Evolution has reengineered hypermobile power, cutting 35 MW mobilization timelines from weeks to hours while scaling toward 1.6 million hydraulic horsepower.

 

They also explore electrification, AI-driven automation, market skepticism, and why culture remains Evolution’s ultimate competitive advantage.
