DELSCO FEATURED IN THE BACKGROUND OF UNITED
As Delsco wraps up its project at the Denver International Airport, they have been seen in several pictures within the airport perimeter. Recently, United did an article that published on SimpleFlying.com that featured one of the top workover rigs in the Delsco fleet in that background of their website picture. We are extremely proud of the team and what they have been able to accomplish, especially in the time frame that they completed the project in. From extreme tempertures in one of the worst winters on record, to the high heats of the summer, this team has continued to deliver top teir results! Plus, they went incident and occurrence free through that entire time!

Delsco's Leadership Conference

Day 3 – DLC
Our final and our most rewarding day! We started the day off with a special service project. We were able to put on a rodeo for special needs kids! This was truly wonderful because Delsco Northwest Inc. hosts a special needs rodeo back home every year! This was so perfect and came together in such a miraculous way. Thanks to our partner Rascal Rodeo for helping to pull this together! Truly an amazing event!
After that, we had another incredible opportunity to hear from an astronaut who has gone into space 3 times for a total of 388 days, Shane Kimbrough! He is an amazing person who has served our country on these missions and who has dedicated his life to the betterment of mankind! We were truly Honored to have him speak to us! When he was asked what his greatest accomplishment was in his life & career, he replied “my amazing wife and kids!”
His message brought us back down to earth to remember what all of our hard work is for! At Delsco we really believe in the principles of working hard to provide for your family, and being safe everyday to return home to them!
Overall, the Conference was such a blessing and truly was an incredible experience. We certainly appreciate All of our team and their families for what we are able to accomplish everyday! Thank you Team!

Delsco's Leadership Conference

Day 2 – DLC
On the second day of our Delsco Leadership Conference, we had a well attended 5k walk/run that started the day off. We followed that up with breakfast and our first block of financial meetings.
Casey reviewed where the company’s performance has been over the last couple of years. Then he presented the company’s strategy for the future.
After that, we had a special guest speaker, John Jacobi, who presented on having your own personal convictions in life. One quote was “Perfection is unattainable, but Excellence can be achieved Everyday!”
Then we had a trainer for FranklinCovey come in to educate our team on 7 Habits of Highly Effective People! It was a fantastic workshop of working together to better ourselves and the team!
After another successful day, Rhen Richard was able to win 1st Place with his team at the NFR Rodeo!

Delsco's Leadership Conference

Day 1 – Delsco Leadership Conference! We would be remorse if we didn’t take the time to recap our Delsco Leadership Conference (DLC) 2022 – Las Vegas. We took 40 of our Leaders and their spouse/significant other to Las Vegas for some leadership trainings, keynote speakers, 5k walk/run, service project, and rodeo! It was a few incredible days with some exceptional activities and inspirational messages.
On the first day, we kicked off out 3 days with an incredible talk from Chad followed by one of our motivational videos called TEAM BOND. Then we had an excellent discussion about investing in yourself and your future by contributing to your 401k and making plans for your retirement! After those activities, we reserved a section at the NFR for some food before taking everyone to the Rodeo that night! Cheering loud for Rhen Richard !

Delsco WINS the DIA Project!

See the message below:

 

Denver City Council next Monday will consider a contract to plug and close 64 oil wells on the Denver International Airport property.

Why it matters: Decommissioning the wells helps better position the airport to achieve its sustainability goals.

  • Reducing the airport’s carbon footprint is part of the travel hub’s Vision 100 plan, which seeks to have 100 million annual travelers while being the greenest airport in the country.

Of note: The wells haven’t produced any oil or gas since May 2018, but still cost the city money to maintain.

By the numbers: The airport estimates it costs $750,000 each year to sustain the inactive wells and keep them in compliance with state regulators.

  • By decommissioning the wells, DIA is saving $2 million it would have needed to spend in 2025 and 2026 to conduct a state-mandated integrity test.
  • Between 2011 and 2018, the airport made $17.3 million in revenue from the oil and gas wells, according to DIA spokesperson Stephanie Figueroa.

Details: If Denver City Council approves the $9.2 million contract with Utah-based oil service provider Delsco Northwest, work will begin this July and end by July 2023. That money would pay to plug and close the wells, and remove other equipment at the airport.

  • The cost of the well maintenance does not use public tax dollars and instead comes from DIA’s own budget, according to Figueroa.

Context: The wells were inherited by the airport when the land was annexed by Denver from Adams County in 1988 to build DIA.

  • The airport has 38 tank batteries and 131,000 linear feet of underground oil flowlines, which will be demolished and removed as part of the deal.

Delsco Acquires Competitor

Delsco continues to grow. We would like to announce that we have acquired a competitor and have grown our fleet.

We would like to welcome the Newest rig to our Delsco fleet, the TIGER rig!!!
We have to say that we were REALLY excited when a couple of boys from Louisiana found out that we were going to purchase a Purple and Gold rig. We instantly made the connection to our roots.
The LSU Tigers has been a fun past time football tradition for Chad and Casey. Now, we have acquired a rig that reflects that same passion for football and tradition which embodies the same passion and tradition we have for getting the job done right. It stands as a symbol for hard work, strong culture, teamwork, and a winning attitude. Delsco is proud of the heritage that it came from going back to Albert Richard coming from South Louisiana and settling in Utah! We are excited to draw on our strengths from the past and carry those to our future!
