Since Sep, 2016
Superior Energy Services serves the drilling, completion and production-related needs of oil and gas companies worldwide through a diversified portfolio of specialized oilfield services and equipment that are used throughout the economic life cycle of oil and gas wells. The world's energy producers rely on us for the services, tools, equipment and exceptionally trained personnel needed to develop and produce oil and gas.
Superior Energy has a history of developing specialized tools and technologies designed to meet customer needs. In its earliest days, the company pioneered the use of “rigless” plugging and abandonment services. Since then, Superior has been on the leading edge of a number of developments that benefit oil and gas producers throughout the life cycle of the well.
Our business segments include:
Drilling Products and Services
We manufacture, rent and sell specialized equipment and tools for use with well drilling, completion, production and workover activities.

Company History
Superior Energy's tremendous growth — accomplished in a relatively short time — has been the result of hard work, strategic acquisitions and a focus on exceeding customer expectations.
The beginning
The company that exists today traces its roots back two decades, beginning as an oilfield products manufacturing firm and eventually branching out into services.
By the mid-1990s, Superior offered a full inventory of specialized tools for drilling, production and well workover activities. To finance further growth in this high-capital business, Superior initiated a public offering of stock in 1995.
Domestic acquisitions fuel fast growth
Following its public offering, Superior grew quickly by acquiring more than 10 small- and mid-sized well intervention and oilfield tool rental companies in just three years, growing revenues from $23.6 million to $91.3 million in that time.
In 1999, Superior Energy Services merged with Cardinal Services, the market leader in mechanical wireline services in the Gulf of Mexico and also the largest owner and operator of liftboats in the region.
International opportunities drive next-generation growth
By the mid-2000s, the Gulf of Mexico market was awash with overcapacity and suffering from low commodity prices. To increase asset utilization, Superior Energy Services looked globally.
In 2003, Superior acquired Premier Oilfield Services of Aberdeen, Scotland, providing immediate access to the North Sea, Europe, the Middle East and West African markets.
Making the most of the company's expertise
In 2003, Superior Energy Services formed SPN Resources to acquire mature Gulf of Mexico properties that required the intervention services, tools and disciplines typically employed for customers.
