American Oil and Gas Reporter - August 2021 - 36

decision to postpone was definitely the
right one, and now people are anxious to
get back in touch with their customers
and vendors. Looking at exhibitor interest,
it should be well attended. "
The postponement last year has contributed
to vendor turnover of about 25%,
compared with 15% typically, Fry points
out, but attendees will have the opportunity
to see new faces, and new vendors will
have the opportunity to build clientele.
Vendors' displays will run the gamut
of offerings available to other service
companies and producers, including the
latest technologies and programs on water
reclamation and reuse, always a major
point of interest in the basin, he says.
" A lot of companies recycle water and
are always exploring ways to recycle
more, " Fry adds.
Vendors also will display products and
services targeted at reducing emissions and
helping companies meet other environmental,
safety and governance goals, Pipes says.
" We are going to have a lot of exhibits
that are bringing solutions for those issues, "
he says. " The show allows exhibitors to
demonstrate to their customer base what
their solutions are, and it gives them an
opportunity to get face-to-face with the
end-user. If you look back on previous
shows, exhibitors consistently have offered
solutions for the challenge of the day.
This year, environmental and emission
issues are certainly front and center, and
exhibitors will have a lot of answers for
companies that have a lot of questions. "
Front-Row Seat
Pipes has had a front-row seat for the
oil and gas industry's historic transformation
with the advent of horizontal
drilling and multistage hydraulic fracturing
technologies. A native of Bryan, Tx.,
Pipes entered the construction industry
in the early 1970s, but double-digit interest
rates and inflation put a damper on
prospects for growth, he recalls. In December
1981, Pipes set out for Odessa
and a job that started the following month
at Yale E Key, a well service subsidiary
of Sparkman Energy.
Working floors represented a major
career shift, but allowed Pipes to learn
the business from the bottom up laboring
on waterfloods and other oil and gas
projects. The oil and gas industry fascinated
him, Pipes remembers.
" In a year or two, I had the opportunity
to become a tool pusher, and from then
on, I basically held just about every position
you could hold in the company, " he says.
Sparkman Energy eventually became
Key Energy Services, and with his success
as a tool pusher, Pipes was promoted in
1987 to district manager in the Seminole,
Tx., office after Key purchased Bonner
Hoffman Well Service.
After five years in Seminole, he was
promoted to area manager working out
of Midland-Odessa and soon was promoted
again, this time to senior vice
president of Permian Basin operations.
Key's team proved to be exceptional at
combining companies into its operations,
Pipes recounts, as the company worked
its way up to become one of the largest
well service providers in the United States.
In 2005, Pipes moved to the corporate
office in Houston to manage lower-48
rig operations that extended from California
to Michigan and North Dakota to
Texas. He retired from Key in 2011.
Pipes and his wife, René, who have
four grown children and six grandchildren,
returned to Odessa, where he and fellow
industry veterans Larry Nunez, Mickey
Padilla and Scott Sparkman co-founded
Platinum Pipe Rentals. Pipes, Nunez and
Padilla had contacts throughout the Permian
Basin, and Sparkman had extensive
experience on the administrative side of
oil and gas, Pipes says.
From only a few strings of pipe, Platinum
Pipe, now celebrating its 10th anniversary,
has more than 2 million feet of drill pipe
