ARCHROCK: POWERING AMERICA
If you’ve ever turned on a gas stove or lit a gas fireplace, chances are Archrock played a role in making it possible. For over 65 years, Archrock has been an industry leader in natural gas compression. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, with locations and teams all across the United States, Archrock provides its customers with superior services, highly-skilled compression experts and a company-focused, unwavering commitment to safety.
Though known by different names at different times, Archrock is the biggest player in U.S. natural gas compression, with the largest fleet of compressors and the most operating horsepower. The company excels at moving its customers’ businesses forward efficiently, professionally, safely and at expedited speeds. Established in 1954 under the name South Coast Gas Company and having undertaken various acquisitions and dispositions to better serve its shareholders, employees and customers, Archrock rebranded itself in late 2015 following the spin-off of its fabrication and international business segments in the United States. Embracing the new name, Archrock bears the same drive and commitment of the leader in the gas compression industry. For those who don’t know much about gas compression, it involves taking a customer’s natural gas stream at a lower pressure and— through the deployment and use of large, specialized equipment and skilled operators—increasing that pressure to aid in the transportation of that natural gas through a pipeline from wellsite, to gathering stations, through processing facilities and beyond. Compression is also used at the wellsite to help maximize the recovery of oil through a process called gas-lift. Through consistent, dependable natural gas compression services, Archrock delivers its customers a partnership built on reliability and peace of mind. And as a leading supplier of aftermarket services, Archrock is also well positioned to meet the growing opportunities of maintaining customer-owned compression and extending equipment life. Archrock has become the success it is today because of the company’s enduring focus on its core values: safety, service, integrity, respect and pride. Archrock’s employees infuse its work with these attributes each and every day. While Archrock is highly dedicated to its customers, the company is just as committed to its people and the communities in which they operate. Archrock ensures that every employee knows the important role they play and that their effort, expertise and dedication are truly valued, no matter what job they may be doing. If you are looking for a place where you can build a career through training, mentoring and hard work no matter what your role or experience level, consider joining the Archrock team. Archrock provides outstanding career opportunities for its employees, as well as excellent training and unequaled mentorship. On top of that, employee compensation is extremely competitive. The Archrock team is a tight-knit one, and everyone works together to make each day run smoothly. Archrock plans to continue to provide exceptional customer service, invest in its fleets, processes and technology, and of course, its people. People. Power. Partnership. They make up the critical elements that drive Archrock. The truth is the compression business requires hard work in remote locales and challenging environments. But at Archrock, such conditions make for outstanding opportunities. Archrock operates in all major oil and gas producing regions in the United States and has approximately 1,700 employees.
