Weir Oil and Gas, an international company that serves the upstream market, opened a $30 million service center in David Mims Business Park last week. The service center of 92,000 square feet combines Weir’s three Permian Basin facilities into one location for 150 employees. The new plant offers pressure pumping and pressure control assembly, repair and testing facilities, a central hub for field service operations, offices, and a regional distribution center. At the April 11 opening, Midland city officials told Midland Reporter Telegram the new center “provides badly needed services to a hydraulic fracturing industry that has helped lift Permian Basin crude production to a record 4 million barrels a day.”
