ABOUT US

Samson Investment Company is a privately-held independent exploration and production company. Since our company began in 1971, we have grown into a large, financially sound, independent exploration and production company with more than 1200 employees. 

Samson is headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma and maintains division offices in Houston, Denver, and Midland.

We are proud of a corporate culture which emphasizes teamwork and continued career education and training within a rewarding work environment.  We recognize the importance of the life-work balance for all of our employees, whether the new graduate or the seasoned veteran.

Our rock-solid foundation of properties produces significant cash flow. With an energy asset base of 85% natural gas, the Company steadily continues to profit and expand. In the last three years, we have invested more than $4 billion in new drilling and oil and gas property acquisitions. Fiscal year 2009 plans call for drilling commitments in excess of $1.5 billion.  We continue to seek new drilling and acquisition opportunities.

In addition, Samson maintains lines of credit with a network of United States and European banks. These resources enable us to rapidly deploy significant capital for an aggressive drilling and property acquisition program, thus empowering us to expand our scope of operations.

Our basic formula and business philosophy have been proven by the test of time and have remained unshakeable throughout the years:

  • Utilize innovative technology and expertise to find and implement new opportunities
  • Take prudent financial risks for long-term profitability
  • Apply expert operational and financial skills to efficiently manage our asset base
  • Provide our employees with a rewarding work environment

These key ingredients help to ensure the likelihood of success for each investment we make.

Our highly motivated workforce, expertise, strong financial position, innovative technology and business acumen have provided a strong foundation for our profitable pursuit of crude oil and natural gas. We are committed to staying at the leading edge of technology and to integrating business into our technical process.

We are continuing with our strategic plan which positions us to remain a significant participant in the oil and gas industry for years to come. As a privately-held company, we can take advantage of benefits such as:

• focus on growing value, not growth for growth's sake
• manage for long-term results
• execute quickly on value-added opportunities
• readily available cash for new transactions
