Executive Voice: Oil industry vet builds sandboxes that changed fracking
Kevin Fisher’s career spans several oil and gas companies, including some that changed the field. But the job he’s held for the past three years introduced him to a new kind of fun.
The Oklahoma native rose up through field engineering for oilfield services giant Halliburton before shifting in 2000 to companies making big advances in hydraulic fracturing methods and associated technologies.
His jobs included being CEO at a Texas fracking fluids company and president and CEO at Pinnacle Technologies, a San Francisco-based company that modeled the effectiveness of fracking jobs.
Today, he is CEO of Denver-based PropX, a 3-year-old business that changed how sand for fracking is delivered. It’s a different experience.
“I’d been in the oil industry 40 years running various businesses, but I’d never been employee No. 1.”
