TexCom, Inc. Resumes Operations at M.B. Energy

TexCom, Inc. reported that its M.B. Energy, LLC subsidiary resumed operations on Monday morning following a brief shutdown over the weekend due to Hurricane Ike. Located in Chambers County, Texas, one of the areas hardest hit by Ike, M.B. Energy disposes of oil and gas production and drilling waste. Due to the self-contained nature of Exploration and Production operations, many drilling operations in Southeast Texas were quickly back on line following the storm.

Don Black, President of M.B. Energy, stated, “We were back in operation early Monday using generators for our power needs and have been receiving shipments from drilling operators. We want our clients to know that Kyle Smith, George Sampson and Bryn Hawthorn are all safely back on the job operating the M.B. Energy facility.”

TexCom also reported that its offices in Houston and its email services remain closed due to lack of electrical power.
