Why Electric

Why Make the Switch to Electric Rig Power?

Cleaner. Simpler. Smarter.

The Pressure to Evolve is Real.

Drilling teams are under more pressure than ever to reduce emissions, lower operating costs, and meet ESG goals—all without compromising uptime.

What was once uncommon is now proven:

20%

of the U.S. land rig fleet now runs on grid power.

Since 2008, EDT has helped make that possible—working with most major E&Ps and drilling contractors in every climate from Southwest deserts to Dakota winters.

Electric Rig Power Changes the Equation

Electric power systems offer a smarter way to run your rig. By tapping into grid power—or blending it with existing generators—you gain:

Fuel Savings

A typical 1,500 HP rig uses ~18,000 kWh/day versus over 2,000 gallons of diesel. Grid power can save you thousands per day.

Offset Capital Costs

Savings from electrifying during drilling can help offset the capital needed for long-term power infrastructure.

Streamlined Logistics

Fewer deliveries and simpler power management.

Lower Emissions

CO₂ emissions are reduced by as much as 50%, with SOx and NOx significantly reduced or eliminated.

Quieter, Safer Sites

Less noise, fewer trucks, and reduced fire risk.
