Most operations are still tracking pump hours. We’re tracking performance. Continuous Pumping is a poor operational metric, easily manipulated to include non-productive pumping (NPP). Continuous Fracturing strips out (NPP) leaving only the time that matters….fracturing. We’re not just pumping. We’re automating. We’re fracturing. #DowningUSA #ContinuousFracturing #CompletionsThatPerform #ILT #AutomationAdvantage #BuiltToPerform

Colorado sunrise. Onsite before daylight. The lights are still on, but the day started hours ago. Shot by Richard Palmier from a customer location in the DJ Basin. #DowningUSA #ColoradoOilfield #SunriseShift #RigReady #FieldWork #EnergyForward

This is what field-ready looks like. Not a blue sky. Not a clean day. A full-on West Texas dust storm. Jamie Elbert captured this moment in Midland, where visibility dropped and wind picked up, but our team kept working. Downing is built for the basin and ready for whatever rolls in. #DowningUSA #WestTexas #RigLife #FieldReady #OilfieldPhotos #MidlandOilandGas

This month, we’re spotlighting two standout moments from our field operations. On the left, Ernesto Barrios and team rigging up FS Hot Swap at sunrise in the Permian. On the right, Michael “Tiny” Schmidt on location late evening in South Texas. These are the moments that define what we do before the sun’s up and long after it’s gone down. #DowningUSA #FieldFirst #FSHotSwap #PhotoOfTheMonth #SouthTexasEnergy #CompletionsCulture #BuiltToPerform

Fast lead times, field-ready gear, and a team that picks up the phone. #DowningUSA #MadeInOklahoma #WellheadSystems #FieldReady #BuiltToPerform #USManufacturing

You’re 400 stages in Crews are hot, pace is tight And now the valve’s down again Grease didn’t save it Repairs won’t either This is why we built the Freedom Gate Valve → Zero greasing → Zero between-job maintenance → Zero downtime If your valve can’t make it to the end of the pad It’s not built for the field #FreedomGateValve #DowningUSA #FracEfficiency #NoGreaseNoNPT #KeepPumping

Last week, our team in OKC walked through the FS Hot Swap Skid Covering how it cuts pump NPT, enables true continuous fracturing, and keeps crews out of the red zone. Shoutout to Brian C. Wiesner, Justin Robinson, and Robert Valadez for leading the session and breaking down the value behind the system. Always a good day when we get hands-on with what’s next in completions. #FSHotSwap #DowningUSA #PumpNPTNoMore #FieldDrivenInnovation #OKCMade
