NOV and Well Data Labs Collaborate to Deliver Real-Time, Al­-Driven Frac

August 12, 2025

NOV and Well Data Labs (WDL) have announced a collaboration that transforms the management and visualization of operational fracturing data. By combining NOV’s Max Completions™ proven aggregation hardware with WDL’s Al-driven data analytics platform, this collaboration delivers earlier, actionable insights that reduce delays and improve operational decision-making.

Together, the companies simplify field data aggregation, synchronize timestamps, and allow seamless cross-stage comparisons-giving operators clear, immediate visibility into pad logistics and overall performance. When NOV’s Max Completion proven aggregation hardware and real-time platform are integrated with WDL’s Al-driven Power-Up™ applications, remote operations centers gain the ability to monitor comprehensive operations from anywhere in the world. This powerful combination delivers real-time stage analytics to uncover data patterns and abnormalities faster, enabling operators to optimize efficiency on a stage-by-stage basis.

Traditionally, stage analytics required time to aggregate data, align it with planned procedures, and compare it across stages. With this integrated solution, users gain immediate access to real-time views and powerful analytics, enabling quicker communication and stage-specific adjustments during the current operation rather than waiting for the next pad.

“By harnessing real-time data visualization and analytics through our collaboration with Well Data Labs, we’re empowering operators to make critical, stage-specific adjustments in the moment-not after the fact,” said Travis Thomas, VP of CTES at NOV. “This ability to act decisively during the current stage maximizes efficiency and minimizes costly delays, ensuring that insights drive results where and when they matter most.”

In addition to staying ahead of the curve with WDL’s Al-driven Power-Up™ applications, customers can feel confident knowing they are making data-backed decisions in real­time, driving improved operational outcomes.

“Combining our analytics leadership with NOV’s field data expertise brings a new level of decision- making to the frac site,” said Josh Churlik, CEO and Founder of Well Data Labs. “Operators can now act on insights immediately, raising the bar for completions efficiency.”
