Hurricanes Harvey and Irma left a path of destruction in their wake and as communities rebuild, the oilfield service, supply and manufacturing sector has stepped in with strong support. Many PESA members and their families were directly impacted by these devastating storms, and even while experiencing disaster themselves, simultaneously volunteered, donated and cared for others.
Company leaders have shown incredible generosity, supporting large-scale relief efforts as well as mobilizing volunteer crews to directly assist those impacted by the historic storms. The oilfield community has stood with the people of Texas and Florida, comfortable in our steel toes while cleaning up and rebuilding devastated areas.
Together the oilfield service and supply sector has contributed more than four million dollars and countless in-kind contributions directly to hurricane relief efforts.
