Summary:

The objectives of this project are to increase asset utilization and efficiency and develop a working tool to optimize the type of equipment that should be deployed to different production enhancement camps across the company
As the industry has evolved, the trend of equipment design has been to put larger engines on the pumping equipment so that more horsepower could be achieved. Halliburton believes that different camps, who perform different types of work, may need different combinations of equipment in order to be the most efficient.
This project that will create a model that will determine an optimal configuration of production enhancement equipment at camps for a given set of potential jobs.
