An integrated oil and gas pipeline contractor, Driver Pipeline has been fulfilling the energy industry's construction, mainte ... nance and repair needs since 1971. With more than 700 employees, our work has taken us from the Atlantic Coast to beyond the Rocky Mountains, and from South Texas to Maryland. Our first customer in 1971, Lone Star Gas (now Atmos Energy), headquartered in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, remains a customer to this day. In 1993, Driver Pipeline expanded significantly via the acquisition of another pipeline contractor located in Pearland, TX (just south of Houston), which significantly enhanced the Company's capabilities in the Gulf Coast Region. In 1998, the Company hired several former Lone Star Gas employees and established a state-of-the-art fabrication facility at its Dallas headquarters to better support its customers' needs. In 1999 and 2000, branch offices were formed in Balch Springs, Texas and Kennedale, Texas to support the growing pipeline and utility construction needs in and around the D/FW Metroplex. In 2007, Driver completed the construction of its new shops and offices consisting of 5 buildings located on over 30 acres in Irving, TX. These state of the art facilities have greatly enhanced the company's ability to support its teams out in the field. The move has provided additional space for a growing fleet of trucks and equipment, as well as a greatly expanded fabrication shop, new 18 bay maintenance shop, training center and corporate offices. What began as a small family business serving a single customer has grown into a fully integrated oil and gas pipeline construction company known for its vast equipment fleet, talented pipeliners, "can-do" spirit and commitment to safety. read more
