Why Oilfield Operators Choose Us
The CNC Machine Shop Built for the Oilfield
Most machine shops can handle small parts. We machine the long, heavy, high-pressure components that drilling, production, and frac operations depend on every day.
Real Capacity
Most shops max out at 12”. We machine components up to 24 inches in diameter, 120 inches long, and weights requiring heavy-lift equipment. Perfect for drill collars, long mandrels, pressure housings, and oversized wellhead components.
API 6A
We support API 6A dimensional requirements, sour-service materials, pressure ratings from 2,000–20,000 PSI, and full traceability. We’re not an API-monogram facility—but we machine the parts that API-certified facilities assemble and stamp.
Tight Tolerances
Critical surfaces get verified on calibrated equipment—CMM, optical comparator, thread gauges, and surface finish testers. We routinely machine seal surfaces, valve trim, and threaded connections where “close enough” is not acceptable.
Exotic Alloy Experts
We machine the materials that most shops avoid—Inconel 718, Hastelloy C-276, Monel K-500, Duplex, Super Duplex, and high-strength alloy steels. Correct speeds, feeds, tooling, and coolant strategy ensure accuracy and tool life.
Rush Jobs
When a rig goes down, every hour costs money. We turn urgent jobs in days, not weeks—sometimes 24–48 hours when humanly possible. Emergency drill collars, frac components, valve bodies, and custom one-offs are our specialty.
Manual + CNC
Reverse engineering, obsolete components, broken parts with no drawings—our manual machinists and CNC programmers work together to solve the problems other shops won’t touch. One-off repairs and prototypes welcome.

Materials We Machine (And Why It Matters)
In oil and gas, material selection determines whether your part lasts six months or six years. We machine exotic alloys, corrosion-resistant grades, and high-strength steels that survive extreme pressure, sour gas, torque, heat, erosion, and corrosive environments.
Exotic Alloys for Extreme Conditions
Inconel 718 & 625
Ideal for high-heat, high-pressure, and corrosive environments. Perfect for downhole tools, high-temperature valve trim, and subsea hardware. We specialize in Inconel machining—correct speeds, feeds, and tooling to avoid work-hardening.
Hastelloy C-276
When H₂S and CO₂ threaten to destroy everything, Hastelloy C-276 is the answer. Used for sour service components and chemical injection parts.
Monel 400 & K-500
Corrosion-resistant nickel-copper alloy used in offshore and subsea systems. Excellent for saltwater and high-cycle fatigue environments.
Duplex & Super Duplex Stainless
High-strength, corrosion-resistant alloys for pressure-rated components, subsea housings, and offshore tooling. Twice the strength of 316 stainless with superior pitting resistance.
High-Strength Alloy Steels (The Oilfield Workhorses)
4140 & 4340 Alloy Steel
Heat-treatable, extremely strong, and ideal for drill collars, downhole assemblies, and heavy-duty shafts.
4130 Chromium-Moly
Strong, tough, and weldable—used for tubular components and structural oilfield parts.
Stainless Steels for Pressure & Corrosion Resistance
316 / 316L Stainless
The standard for moderate corrosion resistance in oilfield hardware and valve components.
17-4 PH Stainless
Precipitation-hardened stainless steel used for high-strength parts such as valve stems, shafts, and precision fasteners.
13Cr (F6NM)
NACE-compliant stainless steel designed specifically for sour gas environments.
What Makes Us Reliable
How We Prevent Downtime for Oil & Gas Operators
Oilfield downtime costs thousands per hour. Our process is built around preventing delays, solving problems early, and machining parts right the first time.
Fast Response
Urgent RFQs get immediate attention. Most quotes go out the same day because downtime doesn’t wait. When your rig is offline, we act now—not later.
Honest Lead Times
We don’t give fantasy ship dates. You get realistic, achievable timelines backed by machine availability and actual workflow—not guesses.
Problem Detection
Missing details, bad tolerances, unclear callouts—if something is off on the drawing, we catch it before machining, not after a part is scrapped.
Machine Selection
Long parts go on long-bed lathes, tight-tolerance parts on rigid CNC mills, fast repairs on manual machines. Correct machine choice = faster turnaround + better accuracy.
Mid-Process Checks
Critical features—threads, bores, sealing surfaces—are inspected during machining, not just at the end. Catching issues early prevents rework and delays.
Ready-to-Install Parts
Parts ship clean, deburred, protected, labeled, and ready for assembly. No prep work, no surprises, no missing information.

Real Oilfield Problems We’ve Solved
When downtime costs thousands per hour, you need a machine shop that solves problems fast, communicates clearly, and delivers parts that work the first time. Here are two real scenarios that show how we help operators avoid costly delays.
Emergency Drill Collar
The Problem: A major drilling contractor experienced a cracked drill collar offshore. The rig was forced to stop operations. Downtime was costing more than $75,000 per day.
What Most Shops Said
Lead time: 6–8 weeks
Reason: “Exotic material. Too busy. Long part.”
What We Did
- Sourced 4340 steel within 24 hours
- Machined a 16" × 72" drill collar
- Completed turning, threading, and finishing
- Delivered to the helicopter pad on day 6
The Result: Drilling resumed immediately.
The contractor avoided 4+ weeks of downtime and now keeps backup inventory with us for emergencies.
No-Drawing Valve Body Repair
The Problem: A Conroe-based production company had a critical valve body fail. The part was 30 years old, with no drawings, no CAD, and no documentation.
What Most Shops Said
Lead Time: Unknown
Reason: “We need a drawing. We can’t touch it without specs.”
What We Did
- Reverse-engineered the old part
- Measured, mapped, and recreated the geometry
- Machined a new valve body from the correct material
- Fit-tested it with the customer’s existing components
The Result: The valve was rebuilt and back online in two weeks, at a fraction of the cost of replacing the entire assembly.
