HardRock Directional Drilling
THEN
* HardRock was started in 2003 by Robert Myers, who famously said,
" I started with one rig and a pocket full of credit cards. "
* HardRock quickly became the company to call when a tough drill
needed to be completed.
* With this reputation, the company experienced quick growth.
* By 2010, the Eagle Ford Shale (South Texas) became very active and
HardRock had grown to 5 rigs.
* Positioning itself to capitalize on this opportunity, the company doubled
in size by 2012.
* HardRock built a second office in Pearsall, Texas, to service the
Eagle Ford and decided to enter the maxi rig market, with the purchase
of a Vermeer D330x500.
NOW
* Today, HardRock operates 30 drilling rigs, ranging from 24,000 pounds
to 1 million pounds, and over 400 pieces of support equipment.
* Now with four offices in Texas - San Antonio, Pearsall, Monahans and
Amarillo - HardRock services all the major basins and surrounding areas.
* Its customer and geographic base is very diverse and spans across the
U.S. in the municipal, renewables and oil & gas markets.
* HardRock continues to strive to be on the forefront of new industries.
* Very fortunate to be involved in the design and completion of some
of the largest crossings completed in recent years.
* Takes pride in its retention of the top talent in the industry and
credits employees with the company's success.
MILESTONES
* In the past few years, HardRock has become more involved in the
industry with the goal of helping improve it.
* Proactively taking on the position of becoming good stewards to
the industry, by promoting good practices and spreading the
knowledge of HDD.
* Strives to help make sure crossings are designed correctly, to ensure
they are constructible, so the project owner receives a good product,
and contractors can complete them with low risk.
* Keeps safety and the environment in mind when it comes to completing
all crossings.
CONNECTIONS
* One of the biggest outlets for this platform has been Underground
Construction and its annual UCT convention.
* HardRock is proud to be a part of the magazine/UCT organization
and looks forward to future involvement.
