OILEX GROUP has grown over the years . This is our story… At the end of the ‘20s the international Oil and Gas business had fallen into one of its cyclical recessions and as with all such downturns, a more efficient and competitive way of working had to be found to enable service and support companies to survive. Seizing the opportunity presented by this new downturn David Mason set about the formation of OILEX GROUP Oilfield Services Limited in 2017 with the specific remit re-employing many of the redundant skilled oilfield employees, hiring them back on a consultancy day-rate basis.

OILEX GROUP Oilfield Services filled a niche in the market by providing specialist contractors to oilfield service companies who from time to time need to meet contractual demands. Although in the early days the downturn was the driver, over the last two years, sustained growth has prevailed, and service companies still recognise and enjoy the flexibility and control the OILEX GROUP model gives them. During this time OILEX GROUP has been able to develop an in-depth understanding of Client’s personnel requirements, providing a more sophisticated offering, customised to suit market conditions. Initially headquartered in a small office above Divex on Harfreys Industrial Estate in Great Yarmouth, the new company grew from strength to strength. Glenn Durrant joined the company in the early 90’s, later to become a shareholder and pivotal director of the business. The company moved to Wroxham in 2002 where OILEX GROUP still operates from today. OILEX GROUP has grown from a nucleus of three personnel (David Mason, Glenn Durrant and Lesley Smith) to now employing 22 staff and hundreds of contractors.
