Description: LBRT Liberty Oilfield January 13, 2026
Liberty Energy Inc. (NYSE: LBRT) delivers hydraulic fracturing and ancillary services-including wireline, proppant delivery, field-gas processing, CNG logistics, and data analytics-to on-shore oil and gas producers across North America. The firm operates roughly 40 active frac units and two sand-mine assets concentrated in the Permian Basin as of 31 Dec 2024.
Its service footprint spans the Permian, Williston, Eagle Ford, Haynesville, Denver-Julesburg, Western Canadian Sedimentary, Powder River, Appalachian (Marcellus/Utica), Anadarko, Uinta, San Juan, and Beetaloo basins, positioning the company to capture demand from both U.S. shale resurgence and emerging Canadian plays.
Key operational metrics (Q4 2024) show a 12% YoY increase in frac-day utilization to 78% and a 9% lift in average proppant-delivery volume per rig, reflecting higher well-count activity in the Permian and a modest rebound in oil prices after the 2023-24 price dip.
Sector drivers that materially affect LBRT include: (1) crude-oil price elasticity-higher WTI prices boost drilling intensity; (2) regional infrastructure constraints-limited pipeline capacity in the Permian and Eagle Ford sustains demand for on-site gas processing and CNG delivery; and (3) regulatory trends-environmental permitting timelines can compress or extend service windows.
