Kachina Petroleum Equipment Company

What Kachina Petroleum Equipment Company does

Kachina Petroleum Equipment Company is a privately held, regional petroleum equipment services provider founded in 1972 (per firmographic data; some sources cite 1970) and headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The company specializes in three core service lines for commercial fueling infrastructure: fuel equipment services (installation, maintenance, and repair of fuel dispensing systems), construction services (new installations and facility modifications for petroleum equipment sites), and ongoing maintenance services designed to maintain operational uptime and regulatory compliance.

The company's customer base consists of commercial fueling operators, convenience stores, truck stops, and fleet facilities in the Southwest, with a service footprint concentrated in New Mexico and Southwest Texas. Kachina operates a direct, field-based B2B sales and service delivery model, employing between 11 and 50 people. Pricing is project- or contract-based and is not publicly disclosed. As of November 3, 2025, Kachina was acquired by United Uptime Services (formerly D&H United Fueling Solutions), integrating the company into a national petroleum equipment service platform that also offers EV charging infrastructure, environmental compliance, environmental recovery, remote monitoring, and equipment financing.

The underlying technology is conventional industrial fuel equipment — pumps, dispensers, tanks, and associated dispensing infrastructure — rather than proprietary or software-defined systems. The company's competitive position rests on its 50-plus years of accumulated field experience and its established regional service relationships rather than on differentiated technology. Following the acquisition, Kachina's service offerings are now bundled into United Uptime's broader ecosystem alongside sub-brands including A&A, HCN, Kubat, PS&C, and Tanknology, with exposure to national accounts such as 7-Eleven, Circle K, Love's, Sunoco, Pilot Flying J, FedEx, Walmart, Sams Club, RaceTrac, Penske, Phillips 66, TravelCenters of America, and Ryder.
