We are a leading provider of proppant (frac sand) and logistics services to the oil and natural gas industry within the Permian Basin of West Texas and New Mexico, the most active oil and natural gas basin in North America. We believe we have developed a strong brand recognition for reliability and strong customer service that has enabled us to increase the volume of proppant sold every year since the founding of the company in 2017.

We control 14,575 acres of large open-dune reserves and resources, which represent more than 70% of the total giant open dune acreage in the Winkler Sand Trend available for sand mining. 

We are planning to build the Dune Express, the first long-haul overland conveyor system to deliver proppant. The 42-mile Dune Express will cost about $400 million to build. Atlas Energy Solutions plans to use part of the IPO’s net proceeds to fund the construction of the Dune Express. The company expects to break ground on the project in the first half of 2023. Commercial service is likely to begin by the end of 2024.

We were founded in 2017 by Ben (“Bud”) Brigham, our executive chairman and CEO. In 2011, Brigham Exploration Company, a pioneer in the use of 3-D seismic and horizontal drilling and completions techniques within the oil-rich Bakken Shale, was acquired by Statoil ASA for $4.7 billion. Brigham Exploration completed an IPO in 1997

(Note: Atlas Energy Solutions, Inc. priced its IPO on March 8, 2023, at $18 – $2 below the bottom of its $20-to-$23 price range – on the full 18.0 million shares in the prospectus – to raise $324 million. Atlas Energy Solutions filed an S-1 on Jan. 31, 2023. The company filed confidential IPO documents with the SEC on Feb. 14, 2022.)
