The Board and myself consider nothing to be of higher importance than maintaining our 'Safety First' efforts and our commitment to such goes from the Boardroom to each of our rig hands in the field.  Continuing our value-oriented pricing and top rated performance on the job, we believe our customers are well served with Best. We welcome the added expertise and energy that Johnny brings to our group in Liberal."
