The Oilfield Services Industry has taken a big hit over the past several years. Despite the ever-increased tight margins, this industry segment has experienced some renewed activity recently largely in part due to the on-shore activities in the Permian Basin and other Shale Plays in the US.
There was a massive hiring spree that ensued up until the great fall in 2015, and many people were displaced all around the world. Many individuals who jumped into Oilfield Services during the peek have left the industry and as a result, it is running much leaner than in years past.
The leadership talent was also hit hard during the downturn, however, those who have been in this industry long enough and have endured the roller coaster ride that is oil and gas have landed. We are seeing a steady increase in activity in this segment and companies are utilizing some hard lessons learned and relying on better practices as well as technology to gain a competitive advantage.
Gulf Coast Recruiters LLC based in Cypress Texas, is fortunate to have almost thirty years of experience recruiting top professionals across many functions for the oilfield services sector. We believe there will continue to be consolidation, however, good leadership and subject matter experts (SME’s) are going to be in high demand as we continue the trend of steadier and upward trending commodity prices.
We suggest that you identify your gaps in key areas within your organization and take initiatives to make sure that those gaps are filled or at least have bench strength behind them.
