Murvin
Oil Company is an independent production company engaged in the
acquisition, exploration, development, and operation of oil and
gas properties.
The company’s
primary focus lies within the state of Illinois, with our head office
located in Olney, Illinois. Murvin Oil Company has been operating
in the Illinois
Basin since
the beginning of Illinois’s petroleum production, and is one
of the oldest production companies in the state. Our experience
and success have resulted in considerable growth and confidence
in our firm’s abilities.
Murvin Oil
Company was founded in 1947 by John B. Murvin, and has been family
owned and operated ever since. The company takes great pride in
its recognized achievements and the reputation for setting the standard
in the field. Both local and state agencies regularly ask for our
counsel and service in all aspects of our business.
As president
and owner I have adopted company policies which have consistently
led to continued growth and profitability through utilization of
the expertise provided by our seasoned personnel. The diversity
and experience of our staff has provided the catalyst to not only
meet, but take advantage of the opportunities provided by the continuing
changes encountered by the independent
oil and gas industry. My business approach to the oil and gas industry
has always been conservative, taking into account time-proven methods
blended with the most recent advances in science and technology
in directing the company’s activities.
Murvin Oil
Company drills approximately 10 wells a year. The flexibility provided
by strong operations in Illinois and good relationships with other
businesses, as well as land owners has permitted our annual drilling
program to enjoy continued success. Our staff and equipment permits
us to directly control all facets of our business from originating
a prospect through completion, equipping, and operating, thereby
maximizing our investment. A working relationship with several major
oil and gas companies has benefitted our company through profitable
periods and the sharing of information and technology.
We feel the
strong independent oil and gas producer will continue to play an
important role in the development of our country’s oil and
gas reserves. Our prospects for continued growth are excellent and
I am confident of the ability of our company to meet all future
challenges and opportunities.
Gregg C. Gibson
President
