The Oil & Gas Industry has never been in more demand that today, when the price of crude oil is flirting dangerously close to the $100.00 per barrel mark.

As petroleum is a non-renewable natural resource the industry is faced with an inevitable eventual depletion of the world's oil supply. The BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2007 predicted the reserve/production ratio for proven resources worldwide.

The study placed the prospective life span of reserves in the middle east at 79.5 years, Latin America at 41.2 years and North America at only 12 years.

Most crude oil and natural gas originate from plant and animal life that thrived millions of years ago in swamps and oceans. These organic materials were deposited with mud and silt from streams and rivers.

The sediments eventually hardened to form sedimentary rock. Heat and pressure transformed the soft parts of the plants and animals into solid, liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons, known as fossil fuels – coal, crude oil or natural gas.

The petroleum industry, commonly referred to as “The Oil & Gas Industry” was established in the 8^th century, when the streets of Baghdad were paved with tar, derived from petroleum through destructive distillation.

Demand for petroleum products is at an all time high, and major oil and gas producers are being forced into the depths of the oceans to locate large deposits of crude oil.

Pneumatic and Hydraulic Company, with offices in Baton Rouge, Lafayette and Houston, is keenly aware of the needs for equipment for these oil producers, and we are committed to having the largest stock of oilfield pumps, valves and systems in the Gulf Coast area to serve the world.
