Blackhawk Specialty Tools Expands Onshore U.S. Footprint
HOUSTON, Dec. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Blackhawk
Specialty Tools, LLC, announced that it has expanded its
onshore operations in the United
States through the opening of two new operating
facilities.
Muncy, Pennsylvania
The Company has relocated its Appalachian regional headquarters
to a new 17,200 square foot facility located in the Marcellus
Energy Park at 285 Marcellus Dr., Muncy, PA 17756. This facility
will drastically increase the Company's presence in the region and
will enhance the Company's ability to support its customers
throughout the northeastern United
States including in the highly prolific Marcellus and
Utica shale plays. The new
facility has been equipped with a new state of the art torque
machine and has the ability to provide rotating top drive cement
heads in multiple sizes and houses a vast inventory of cementing
products. In addition, the Company provides bucking services
from this location and will have an advanced hydraulic testing
bay.
Midland, Texas
The Company has also opened up a new district in Midland, TX and will operate through its new
10,000 square foot facility located at 2616 E. I20, Midland, TX 79701. This facility
will expand the Company's Texas
presence to the west and allow the Company to support its customers
throughout the West Texas and
Eastern New Mexico regions
including the Permian Basin. This facility will support
cement head operations in the regions but primarily be focused on
cementing products and stage tools where we feel we can add
significant value to this market.
Billy Brown, Blackhawk's

respected throughout the oil and gas industry, demand for our

position in the offshore Gulf of Mexico. We thank our
customers who have helped drive our expansion efforts and we look
forward to providing them even better products and services through
these new facilities".
