Marcellus E-Fracking Company Evolution Well Sued for Overtime

Evolution Well Services, headquartered in Houston with a regional office in Pittsburgh, specializes in "electric" fracking--using natural gas from the well pad (instead of diesel fuel) to power turbines to create electricity that drives fracking pumps. Evolution fracks for at least one Marcellus/Utica E&P (see Another Marcellus Driller Converts to Electric Fracking). Earlier this week an Evolution worker filed a lawsuit against Evolution in Allegheny County court claiming the company owes him (and others, if he can turn it into a class action) back pay for overtime the company forced them to work.
