Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Nature of Operations	Organization and Nature of Operations General Flotek Industries, Inc. (“Flotek” or the “Company”) creates unique solutions to reduce the environmental impact of energy on air, water, land and people. A technology-driven, specialty green chemistry and data company, Flotek helps customers across industrial and commercial markets improve their environmental performance. The Company’s Chemistry Technologies (“CT”) segment develops, manufactures, packages, distributes, delivers, and markets green specialty chemicals that aim to enhance the profitability of hydrocarbon producers. The Company’s Data Analytics (“DA”) segment aims to enable users to maximize the value of their hydrocarbon associated processes by providing analytics associated with their hydrocarbon streams in seconds rather than minutes or days. The real-time access to information prevents waste, reduces reprocessing and allows users to pursue automation of their hydrocarbon streams to maximize their profitability. The Company’s two operating segments, CT and DA, are both supported by its Research & Innovation advanced laboratory capabilities. For further discussion of our operations and segments, see Note 19, “Business Segment, Geographic and Major Customer Information.” Going Concern These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists. The Company currently funds its operations from cash on hand and other current assets. The Company has a history of losses and negative cash flows from operations and expects to utilize a significant amount of cash within one year after the date of filing the consolidated financial statements. The availability of capital is dependent on the Company’s operating cash flow currently expected to be principally derived from the ProFrac Agreement (see Note 18, “Related Party Transactions”). It is not certain that the Company’s cash and other current assets and our forecasted operating cash flows currently expected to be generated from the ongoing execution of the ProFrac Agreement will provide the Company with sufficient financial resources to fund operations and meet our capital requirements and anticipated obligations as they become due in the next twelve months. The Company may require additional liquidity to continue its operations over the next twelve months to sufficiently alleviate or mitigate the conditions and events noted above, which results in substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company is evaluating strategies to obtain additional funding for future operations. These strategies may include, but are not limited to, obtaining equity financing, issuing debt or entering into other financing arrangements, obtaining higher prices for its products and services, increasing the percentage of its sales from higher margin products, monetizing non-core assets, and reducing expenses. However, the Company may be unable to access further equity or debt financing when needed. As such, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional liquidity when needed or under acceptable terms, if at all. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities, and reported expenses that may be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.
