Ron’s presentation, titled “Liberty: Engineering the Energy Future,” highlighted Liberty’s legacy and ongoing role in the shale revolution. Reflecting on the company’s journey, Ron said, “Couldn’t have imagined the journey that we would have found ourselves on over the next 15 years. And we started out with a very, very simple mission at Liberty, and that was to build the best damn frac company, period. I don’t know how many of you follow the Kimberlite survey, but the results for this year just came out. And I think now for eight years in a row which is maybe as long as the Kimberlite survey has happened, Liberty has been ranked the number one frac company in the United States. And so, I’m incredibly proud that we have successfully accomplished the goal we set out to achieve.” 

He also emphasized the importance of people and culture at Liberty, which are at the center of everything we do, explaining, “Of course, we’re very people intensive. You can see we have a little more than 5,500 employees today. If you could create a culture where people would want to come and stay and make a career of it, particularly out in the field, we believed you could do differential things, you could deliver a differential offering that was unrivaled in the space. And so, that was our whole goal from the very outset, was to create an environment where particularly those staff that are at the tip of the spear, the folks that are running the pumps, the blender, the hydration unit who are doing equipment maintenance, the e-techs and the mechanics, would want to come and stay, and not just stay for a while, but to stay for their career. And that if we could accomplish that, amazing things would happen.” 

During the keynote, Ron also described Liberty’s approach to operational control and technology: “We made a very, very conscious decision as we launched the digi platform to get into the CNG business. We own our own compression facilities in both here in the DJ and down in Texas. We own our own trucking fleet to deliver that CNG to the field. We own the equipment to distribute that gas to our equipment on location. We own gas processing equipment for when we are going to use field gas. All of that with the goal of ensuring that we can execute at the highest level that our pumps are getting the – not only the volume of fuel, but at the right conditions, at the – and with the right quality to ensure successful execution.” 

Ron also highlighted Liberty’s strategic growth beyond fracturing, including international expansion and the launch of a power business, part of Liberty Power Innovations. “Power generation co-located with an asset offers you a very, very different opportunity. Once the capital’s invested and presuming we have control over the fuel supply which we certainly do from a midstream standpoint, there is a real opportunity to provide long-term surety around the price of power generation, and it’s certainly at a price that could be very, very competitive with the grid today, and I would argue highly competitive with the grid five years from now. And so, I think this offers a very, very long-term, compelling proposition.” 

His presentation highlights Liberty’s commitment to innovation and leadership in shaping the future of energy.

• Dan Pickering – Pickering Energy Partners

• Thaimar Ramirez – Midland Basin Business Unit, OXY

• George Koperna – Advanced Resources International (ARI)

The panel was moderated by Ali Sloan of Core Geologic.

Below are a few key points made during the panel session:

• George Koperna explained, some of the technology that drove the start of the shale revolution was first developed with R&D money following the Arab Oil embargo in 1973. That investment has gone a long way for dividends toward U.S. energy independence.
• More recently, the industry has gone beyond the momentum for cost reduction. Thaimar Ramirez with Occidental highlighted reuse of produced water for fracturing and other purposes that make us better neighbors. 
• Dan Pickering assessed that the US unconventional industry will likely face some headwinds as price-sensitive barrels may be temporarily pushed out of the market by relatively price-insensitive barrels. It is a blessing and a curse that US barrels are responsive and relatively easy to add or remove from market. 
• But remember, there is always a silver lining. While cheaper barrels may not be as desirable for us in the short term, our industry always adapts and improves through the cycle. Lower oil prices are great for consumers; expand use of our products toward more people who really need it; make the energy we produce more competitive with other energy sources; and, extend the future runway for oil and gas.

Darwin Engagements 

Ron kicked off his tour in Darwin with three distinct events focused on energy, innovation, and human progress. 

Stop 1: NT Indigenous Business Network 

Ron joined an exclusive discussion on how energy companies can partner with Indigenous businesses to unlock the vast potential of the Beetaloo Basin. This region holds great promise, and Ron emphasized how sustainable energy development can drive economic growth for Indigenous communities across the Northern Territory.

Stop 2: Engineers Australia at Charles Darwin University  

At Charles Darwin University, Ron spoke about “Bettering Human Lives: The Role of Engineers in Energy & Development.” The talk highlighted how engineers are at the heart of delivering energy solutions that balance innovation, responsibility, and regional access. 

Stop 3: The Energy Club NT  

Later that evening, Ron shared Liberty’s “Bettering Human Lives” mission with members of The Energy Club NT. The event focused on how affordable, reliable energy improves health, education, food security, and opportunity worldwide — core to everything we do at Liberty. 

Brisbane Engagements 

After Darwin, our team headed south to Brisbane for another big week of conversations on the future of global energy, security, and human development. 

Stop 4: Australian Energy Producers Conference & Exhibition

Ron took part in a keynote panel on energy geopolitics and security during the transition to cleaner energy sources. The conversation explored how Australia can strengthen its role as a strategic energy partner, especially to meet the rising demand for LNG across the region. 

Stop 5: SPE Queensland — Bettering Human Lives Luncheon

Brady spoke on a panel titled “Mission Critical – Solving the Data Centers Power Problem” alongside industry leaders:

• David Bell, VoltaGrid

• Will McCausland, PowerHouse Data Centers | AREP

• Jennifer Ruch, Oracle

• Scott Worley, Stabilis Solutions

The panel was moderated by Toyebi Adedipe of Hitachi Energy.

As the data center industry experiences unprecedented growth, energy consumption is projected to double by 2030. The panel explored the urgent need for increased power capacity—at larger scales and with faster time-to-compute. Traditionally, data centers have depended on grid-based power, which has been challenged by the speed of power growth from generation to transmission. The discussion asked a timely question: Are we at a turning point where newer, onsite energy solutions are ready to take the lead?

Brady contributed Liberty’s perspective on how innovative, scalable power systems can help meet the sector’s evolving demands, particularly as speed, reliability, and sustainability become critical to data center operations.

A few key points he shared:

• He emphasized his opinion that private industry is likely better equipped to handle the rapidly changing load variability challenges of AI than the traditional grid.

• He noted that the desire for control over power delivery isn’t new. For decades, firms have considered investing in their own power, but the capital cost was often too steep compared to simply paying more for grid power. Today, companies like Liberty—and the colleagues Brady joined on stage—are willing to make those long-term investments on behalf of clients.

• The panel also discussed the push for more renewable power. Brady pointed out that natural gas serves as a strong bridge to a long-term renewable buildout and can either transition to a backup role or remain as primary power, depending on the application.
