The Evertson Group was founded by Bruce Evertson over 40 years ago as a group of energy exploration and oilfield services companies in the Rocky Mountain region of the US.
In 1998, the group established Evertson International to expand into Latin America. In 2014, its president, Chuck Southard, purchased the company from the Evertson Group. It now operates independently as an oilfield services firm focused on Venezuela.
Since its start, Evertson International Venezuela has participated in developing the Orinoco Heavy-Oil Belt. It has contributed to all major heavy-oil projects there over the past 20+ years, under Venezuela’s strategic partnerships with companies including Total, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil, BP, Chevron, and Statoil (now Equinor).
We believe that people make a company what it is. We make it a priority to hire and invest in a quality workforce of local Venezuelans. Dedication to the culture of Evertson is what sets us apart and with a familiar team of professionals, we can accomplish anything. Most of our employees have been with us for many years and some since our start in 1997.
Over the decades Evertson International has partnered with major oil producers to create a Venezuelan alliance with government and private sector entities. We’ve earned the trust of the companies with the highest safety and environmental standards in the world. Our mutual understanding of the importance of these essentials has resulted in long standing alliances.
Our Venezuelan office serves as a regional hub for operations, logistics, and field-based teams. Staffed with the best personnel in the country, we are able to refurbish, store and maintain our rigs and equipment, carry a large inventory of critical spare parts, conduct safety training and hold meetings with managers and clients all from a single centralized location in El Tigre.
