-- USA Compression Partners (USAC) said Tuesday its Q1 average horsepower utilization stood at 91.9%, down from 94.4% for Q1 2025, when total active horsepower was a smaller 3.56 million.
The company said its acquisition of J-W Power and parent J-W Energy added 800,000 active horsepower across the Northeast, Midcontinent, Rockies, Gulf Coast and the Permian Basin, taking its total to 4.4 million active horsepower.
CEO Clint Green said that the acquisition was particularly timely given the fact that new engine procurement lead times have recently begun to exceed two years.
USA Compression Partners is one of the largest independent natural gas compression services in the country in terms of compression fleet horsepower.
The company's customer base comprises producers, processors, gatherers and transports of natural gas and crude oil.
