We were honored for the invitation from Mewbourne Oil Company to welcome U.S. Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum to Patterson-UTI Rig 557 in the Permian Basin last week. The visit was a great opportunity to showcase our partnership with Mewbourne, along with the people, technology, and operational excellence that drive American oil and gas production. Most importantly, it highlighted the hard work and dedication of our crews in the field who safely and efficiently drive the operation around the clock. Thank you to Mewbourne for the opportunity to be a part of the visit, and we also appreciate Secretary Burgum for meeting with our team and learning more about the work being done in one of the world’s most productive energy regions. #PermianBasin #AmericanEnergy #PerformanceDrilling #OilAndGas #EnergyIndustry #OperationalExcellence

Join us at the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) Drilling Onshore Conference & Exhibition in Houston for a closer look at how onshore drilling rigs are keeping pace with steadily increasing power demand. Marcel Snijder will walk through how power requirements have evolved over the past 15 years and where they are headed next. From rising sustained and transient loads to the growing complexity behind delivering reliable power, this session will highlight the shifts shaping today’s rig environments and what it takes to stay ahead. With insight into both the challenges and the emerging approaches, including energy storage, demand offloading, and utility integration, this discussion brings a practical lens to powering the next generation of drilling. 🏢 IADC DRILLING ONSHORE Conference & Exhibition 📅 May 14, 2026 📍 Hyatt Regency Houston West, Houston 🕚 11:00 am | Emerging Technologies 🎤 “Meeting the Power Challenge: How Onshore Drilling Rigs Are Adapting to Steadily Increasing Energy Demand” Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eH9vWZBt #IADC #OnshoreDrilling #DrillingTechnology #RigPower #PattersonUTIDrilling
