Oil States International, Inc. is an American multinational corporation. It focuses on providing services to oil and gas companies. It is a public company listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The company was founded as an oilfield supply store in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1937. [3] Five years later, in 1942, it started selling rubber components to oil patch producers in Texas. [3] In the 1950s, it sold rubber products used to support bridges. [3] Later, in the 1970s, it focused on addressing the needs of oil and gas companies in Canada and on the Gulf Coast of the United States. [3] The next decade, in the 1980s, it focused on supplying those companies with pipeline maintenance and repair for their underwater operations at sea. [3] In 1999, it acquired Tubular Services, thus becoming one of the main tubular distributors in the US. [3]
Its IPO was in 2001, when it became a public company on the New York Stock Exchange traded as OIS. [3]
From 2005, it acquired several accommodation inns for employees of oil and gas companies in Canada ( Fort McMurray, Northern Alberta, Southern Saskatchewan) and Australia ( Gladstone, Queensland, Karratha, Western Australia, Gunnedah Basin in New South Wales). [3] On June 2, 2014, these accommodation services became a spin-off company called Civeo Corporation, also traded on the New York Stock Exchange. [4]
