Located in Marietta, Ohio, B D Oil Gathering was established in May of 1993.
The company is named after the founder and President,
Floyd "Butch" Deer and
operates as a crude oil purchasing and transportation company.
Floyd spent over 43 years in the crude oil business employed as a truck driver,
crude oil purchaser, terminal manager and eventually a partner in local
companies.
In 1993, Floyd was presented with a God given opportunity to pursue and begin
his own business as larger companies pulled out of the area. With three
trucks, Floyd and his son-in-law began hauling crude oil in
Ohio and West
Virginia.
The company has grown over the years to include a
fleet of 20 trucks and several
storage areas in Ohio and West Virginia. Floyd's children and some grandchildren
have joined the company and it is now a family owned and operated business.
The company now has twenty four employees; comprised of truck drivers,
mechanics, and
office personnel. The dedication and hard work of our
employees have helped facilitate our success.
Through the years the oil industry has proven to be an ever evolving business,
including the most recent influx of activity and new drilling in the area.
B D Oil Gathering continues to grow and change to meet the demand of the
industry. As a service provider, it is our desire to foster and create
strong relationships with our customers.
As a family operated business it is important for us to maintain a personal
regard for our customers, and we appreciate the support of our producers through
the years. We strive to continue providing excellent and
dependable
service.
