The undersigned hereby grants to the attorney-in-fact full power and authority

intents and purposes as the undersigned might or could do if personally present,
with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming

any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in these respects) that

upon the lack of timeliness in the delivery of information by or at the
direction of the undersigned, to the attorney-in fact for purposes of executing,
acknowledging, delivering or filing a Form ID, Form 3, Form 4, Form 5, Form 144,
Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G (including amendments thereto) with respect to the

the attorney-in-fact on demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Form ID, Form 3, Form 4, Form 5, Form
144, Schedule 13D and Schedule 13G (including amendments thereto) with respect
to the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued by
Quintana Energy Services Inc., unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a
signed writing delivered to the attorney-in-fact.  This Power of Attorney does
not revoke any other power of attorney that the undersigned has previously
granted.
