Patterson-UTI Energy Contract Drilling Patterson-UTI Drilling is a leading provider of super-spec drilling rigs with a large footprint across U.S. drilling markets. Pressure Pumping Universal is a full-service pressure pumping company and a leading provider of hydraulic fracturing services, primarily in Texas and Appalachia. Directional Drilling MS Directional offers a comprehensive suite of directional drilling services including directional drilling, downhole performance motors, and measurement while drilling ("MWD"). Superior QC provides advanced data analytics software to improve accuracy of horizontal wellbore placement.
Market Outlook U.S. drilling activity appears to have stabilized at historically low levels. Drilling contractors with advanced technologies such as automation and remote operations are expected to benefit once drilling activity improves. U.S. completion activity has improved from lows seen in May 2020. PTEN expects to average approximately five active frac spreads in the third quarter of 2020, an increase from previous guidance. In the near-term, visibility into future drilling and completion activity remains limited. Over the longer-term, higher levels of drilling and completion activity will be needed to support U.S. oil and gas production as global economies continue to open. As the market recovers, PTEN will continue to expand pricing strategies to share in the value delivered to our customers through new technologies and operational excellence.
APEX-XK® - Early-mover in a Recovery “Drawworks up on rig floor” design has more clearance for walking over existing wellheads CORTEX® operating system for performance improvement apps Advanced environmental spill control integrated into drill floor Integrated X-Y walking system can make “horseshoe” moves on existing pads Greater Clearance More Technology Fast moving between pads

Alternative Fuel Leadership
Natural Gas Powered Drilling Rigs Utilize lower cost natural gas to help reduce fuel costs Lower emissions than diesel powered rigs PTEN was the first contract driller to use GE’s Waukesha natural gas engines on a modern land rig 65 rigs currently configured to use natural gas as the primary fuel source including 59 dual fuel capable rigs and 6 natural gas powered rigs
™ Eco-Cell™ is a proprietary energy management system that leverages stored energy to optimize fuel efficiency and emissions on drilling rigs Automatically starts/stops engines and sets optimal load to achieve best possible fuel economy and emissions levels, using the GenAssist control app Takes the place of a 4th Genset Capable of providing 1.5x more power than a genset at full load Stores up to 500 kW-hours Designed for easy integration with APEX® rigs Lithium Hybrid Power System
High Line Electric Utility Power for Drilling Rigs Electrical engineering, control systems and installation services with in-house solutions to connect to high line utility power Unique expertise for drilling rig power requirements Zero drilling rig emissions at the wellsite Recent basins with rigs connected to utility power include Permian and Mid-Con
More flexible fuel source as engines can burn a fuel mix comprised primarily of natural gas PTEN has completed more than 12,400 dual fuel fracturing stages, saving customers approximately 10 million gallons of diesel Reduces operating costs by lowering fuel costs Lowers emissions for environmental sustainability Dual-Fuel Natural Gas Powered Frac Spreads
Appendix
Super-Spec Rigs as the Technology Platform Super-spec rigs will be the platform from which advancements in automation and remote operations are deployed PTEN is well positioned as a leader in the super-spec rig market Advancements in rig technology are expected to be more software driven than hardware driven New business models being applied to advanced technology Performance aspects of contracts are needed to reward contractors for efficiency Contractors should be incentivized to invest in new technology
PTEN’s Proprietary Operating System for APEX® Rigs ®
Applications Adaptive Auto-Driller: Adaptive control loops maximize rate of penetration (ROP) through changing formations and minimize dysfunction. Optimized to consistently replicate expert driller performance. Easy to use interface that accelerates driller learning and development. Automated Toolface Drilling Control Closed loop technology that automates toolface control while slide drilling, enabling the process of remote directional drilling control. Stick-Slip Mitigation: Removes harmful torsional vibration allowing for increased ROP, lifespan of the drill bit, and other BHA components. Pipe Oscillator: Automated pipe oscillation while slide drilling to increase ROP and assisting directional driller in manual toolface steering. ® ® ® ® ®
