About
Duke Energy Corporation is a Charlotte, North Carolina-based regulated electric utility holding company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: DUK) as an S&P 500 Utilities component — serving approximately 8.4 million electric customers and 1.7 million natural gas customers across the Carolinas, Florida, Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky through regulated subsidiary utilities including Duke Energy Carolinas, Duke Energy Progress (North and South Carolina), Duke Energy Florida, and Duke Energy Indiana/Ohio/Kentucky, through approximately 28,000 employees. Duke Energy is one of the largest regulated utilities in the United States with approximately $29 billion in annual revenue, managing a generation fleet spanning nuclear, natural gas, coal (transitioning to retirement), solar, and wind across a 100,000-square-mile service territory. CEO Lynn Good, who has led Duke Energy since 2013, filed the company's 2025 Carolinas Resource Plan responding to unprecedented load growth — North Carolina attracted $19 billion in announced business investments and 25,000+ new jobs in 2025 alone, driven by semiconductor manufacturing, data center construction, and electric vehicle manufacturing — resulting in electricity demand growth projections 8x greater than the prior 15-year trend. The plan calls for 4,000 megawatts of solar capacity by 2034 and battery storage expansion to 5,600 megawatts by 2034 (+2,900 MW from current levels).
Houston oilfield completions and drilling (NYSE: HAL) $22.9B FY2024 revenue; #1 US hydraulic fracturing, Zeus E-frac, international expansion, $4.0B adj. operating income competing with SLB and Baker Hughes.
About
Halliburton Company is a Houston, Texas-based oilfield services company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: HAL) as an S&P 500 Energy component — providing products and services for the exploration, development, and production of oil and natural gas through two segments: Completion and Production (hydraulic fracturing, cementing, artificial lift, wireline logging) and Drilling and Evaluation (drill bits, directional drilling, formation evaluation, well construction planning) through approximately 50,000 employees in 70+ countries. In fiscal year 2024, Halliburton reported revenues of $22.9 billion and adjusted operating income of $4.0 billion, with North America (the most important market — driven by US shale completions) generating $8.6 billion and international operations (Middle East, Latin America, Africa, Europe) generating $14.3 billion. CEO Jeff Miller has led Halliburton's return to strong profitability following the COVID-19 oil demand collapse with a disciplined capital-light model: rather than owning all completion equipment (pressure pumping fleets, cementing units), Halliburton has entered long-term customer partnerships where major E&P operators (Pioneer, EOG, Devon, ConocoPhillips) commit multi-year completion work to Halliburton in exchange for deployment priority and dedicated crew relationships — reducing equipment idle time and Halliburton's capital requirements while securing predictable activity levels. Halliburton's Zeus electric fracturing fleet (E-frac using natural gas-powered electric motors to drive frac pumps rather than diesel engines) reduces NOx emissions and fuel cost for US shale operators — achieving 40-50% fuel cost reduction that operators increasingly specify as a sustainability requirement.
