Drilling Service Company13230 Ferguson Lane , St. Louis, Missouri, United States

While the company’s management and employees are relentless in their passion for their work, they also place extraordinary value on relationships. Good people become part of the clan, and those connections endure over decades.  When Clifford and Marshall began Drilling Service 60 years ago, they practiced the Golden Rule believing that if you treat people right, good things will follow. That philosophy is at the heart of the Drilling Service culture. About 10 years ago the three brothers who lead the company now, Mark, Bruce and Jeffrey, registered the phrase, Down to Earth in conjunction with their logo. The phrase stands for those simple values of fairness, integrity, and valuing relationships above all else.  At around that same time the three Murphys committed to writing seven pledges, summarizing the values of the Drilling Service family. They call the pledges Murphys Laws. Over our 60-year history, customer relationships have always been at the center of our approach to business. As we’ve examined what makes our best relationships work, we’ve codified that approach in three documents: “Murphy’s Laws,” “Down to Earth,” and our Mission Statement.
