Refracs might sound like something out of an engineer’s fever dream, but Bob Barba makes it surprisingly simple and honestly, kind of fascinating. He breaks down how giving old wells a “second frack” can unlock massive untapped potential, boost production, and make better use of what’s already in the ground. Jacob and Julie throw their usual mix of curious (and occasionally dumb) questions his way, and Bob answers them all with patience, clarity, and a few laughs. It’s a fresh, no-BS look at how refracs are changing the energy game, one well at a time.
