Corporate History

In 1986, three professionals in the oil industry pooled their resources and innovative talents to form and operate The Mudlogging Company USA, LP. Today, the company has established itself as a premier mudlogging service and is well on its way to another record breaking year.

As is the case of most start-up companies, the first few years were both trying and critical to the success of the company. Relying heavily on the founders excellent individual reputations in the oil field, and implementing a "get it done right the first time" management philosophy, the company quickly gained the respect of many of the major drilling companies.

Consistently providing new generations of proprietary state-of-the-art electronics and software, The Mudlogging Company USA, LP. leads the mudlogging industry in the utilization of highly trained personnel and the implementation of innovative computerized mudlogging acquisition techniques.

Starting as a regional service company, The Mudlogging Company, LP. quickly progressed to a national service and now provides its mudlogging services on an international basis. The company continues to expand its operations, as it has since 1986, through the acquisition of companies, personnel, equipment and other related assets from other mudlogging service firms.
