Founded in 1980, Schooner Petroleum Services entered the market by introducing the Schooner Hydraulic Choke. Built to API specifications, this design improves not only the kick-control while drilling, but also well-control during blowouts, flow-backs after fracturing, and flow-rate during well testing.
Over the years, Schooner Petroleum Services has introduced six patented products to the industry which include: a high pressure sand knockout, a tree saver (isolation tool), and the solids catching (chunk) choke. All of these products safely remove damage causing solids from the well-flow and protect customer owned assets.
Having grown to 11 districts with business extending internationally, Schooner Petroleum Services has expanded its product range to include snubbing stacks, coiled tubing BOPs, manifolds, frac & gate valves, frac ball catchers, and other specialty well control products. Certified to be an API manufacturer, Schooner Petroleum Services is able to satisfy the many high pressure rental equipment needs of its customers.
In August 2007, Schooner Petroleum Services was acquired by Oil States International, Inc., a leading provider of specialty products and services to oil and gas, drilling and production companies throughout the world.
