Fracturing equipment

Imperial Energy has its own Russian registered frac services company, 50% owned by the management of Imperial Frac Service (IFS).

IFS enables the evaluation of exploratory horizons for reserves determination during the summer period, provides well deliverability information for planning purposes prior to the upcoming winter drilling campaign, and ensures accelerated revenue from the exploratory programme, through stimulation, prior to full field development.

IFS is already in successful operation fraccing Imperial’s production and exploration wells and servicing third parties on demand. IFS’s helicopter transportable frac fleet is linked to RIG services.
