Our story goes back to when LEWCO’s founder, Greg L. Lewis, worked his first oilfield job in his hometown of Delhi, Louisiana as a roughneck on a Sun Oil Company operated oil well in the summer of 1972. His dad was a toolpusher who ensured the oil business was instilled in his son’s blood.
By 1982, Mr. Lewis received his Bachelor of Science degree in Petroleum Engineering from Louisiana State University. In the same year, he began his career with Tenneco Oil Company (later acquired by Chevron). Mr. Lewis began his first consulting job in 1989, and five years later, LEWCO was formed with its first client being Amoco Production Company. LEWCO flourished over the years while Mr. Lewis continued consulting with the merged companies of Amoco and British Petroleum for the next 22 years.
Mr. Lewis continues to practice as a consultant in the oil and gas industry while leading a successful staffing business specializing in the energy industry. His experience as a veteran oilman managing countless high-profile projects brings a special skill in selecting top professionals for his clients.

“Scientists study the world as it is; engineers create the world that has never been.”
“Science can amuse and fascinate us all, but it is engineering that changes the world.”
“A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.”
“I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do.”
“To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.”
“Strive for perfection in everything you do. Take the best that exists and make it better. When it does not exist, design it.”
