Onshore wellsite facilities are under increasing pressure to deliver more, faster, cleaner, and at lower cost. As unconventional development matures and new drilling slows, operators must extract greater value from existing assets while staying flexible in field development. Infrastructure needs to adapt quickly to changing production, handle variable fluid compositions, and operate efficiently with limited onsite staffing. The shift toward modular, compact, and rapidly deployable designs is accelerating, as operators demand surface facilities that align with both emissions goals and tighter cost structures.

From managing higher water cuts and gas volumes to ensuring power reliability in remote locations, onshore wellsite challenges are becoming more complex. Aging infrastructure, rising OPEX, emissions mandates, and workforce shortages are forcing operators to innovate-adopting smarter facility designs, automated systems, and low-footprint solutions to stay competitive.

AGENDA HIGHLIGHTS

​

• How to navigate NSPS OOOOb regulations using real-time emissions monitoring, automation, and smarter facility planning to reduce compliance costs and operational risk

• Design strategies for early production facilities that balance CAPEX Vs. OPEX under variable flow conditions, including equipment right-sizing and lifecycle cost analysis

• Best practices for wellsite flaring reduction, from mobile NGL stripping units to predictive control systems, with lessons from high-pressure regulatory environments

• Technologies and field lessons in on-pad power generation, including microturbines, gas gen-sets, and solar hybrids for off-grid or edge-pad electrification

• What it takes to electrify fracking operations, including infrastructure requirements, economic considerations, and emissions outcomes from real deployments in the Permian

• Regulatory updates on grid-connected pads, with insights into ERCOT, SB6, and what operators need to know when planning electrification in oil-producing regions

• How to structure digital infrastructure and control systems to enable real-time pad-level optimization, reduce operator workload, and ensure compliance

• Using digital twins to improve facility uptime, reduce failure risk, and streamline predictive maintenance—backed by implementation experience

• Reliable asset integrity strategies, including managing corrosion and scale, extending rotating equipment life, and leveraging smart monitoring systems

• Cross-industry insights from offshore practices in logistics, cost/risk balancing, and infrastructure planning—adapted for high-stakes onshore environments​
