Aurora Innovation (AUR) announced a commercial agreement with Detmar Logistics to autonomously transport proppants around the clock for one of the multinational oil and gas companies. Supervised autonomous operations between Detmar’s facility in Midland, Texas and Capital Sand’s mining site in Monahans will begin early next year. Once Aurora deploys its second fleet of driverless trucks, expected in Q2 2026, trips for Detmar will transition to driverless operations without anyone onboard. The route combines high-speed driving on Interstate 20 with local and private roads surrounding Detmar’s facility and the mining site.
