Halliburton Introduces New Stimulation Vessel

Halliburton Energy Services, a business unit of Halliburton Company, introduced Stim Star, its new deepwater stimulation vessel, to more than 400 customers in Houston and New Orleans. The vessel is commercially available for service in the Gulf of Mexico. Stim Star is the latest addition to Halliburton's existing state-of-the-art deepwater stimulation fleet, which includes War Admiral and Man-o-War. All three vessels are equipped to deliver Halliburton's latest stimulation technology solutions - Delta FracPac service, water packs, and Sandstone 2000 service - to both deepwater and shelf customers. "The addition of Stim Star expands the rough sea capabilities of Halliburton's Gulf fleet to better handle the deepwater environment," stated HES president Edgar Ortiz. "Personnel aboard the Gulf vessels average 15 years of experience in the fracturing and stimulation technology. The fleet, coupled with Halliburton's technology and delivery expertise, make these vessels the true Stars of the Gulf."
