EPS

What EPS does

EPS (Expeditors & Production Services Co., Inc.) is a privately held Louisiana-based provider of personnel and shorebase logistics services to the oil and gas industry, founded in 1997 and headquartered in Lafayette. The company serves upstream operators across the Gulf of Mexico and beyond through two integrated service lines: Personnel Services (experienced shorebase dispatchers, rig clerks, materials managers, HSE and compliance technicians, yard foremen, crane and forklift operators, plus consulting across drilling, completion, workover, safety, environmental, and construction disciplines) and Shorebase Logistics (management of four strategically located Louisiana coastal facilities at Intracoastal City, Venice, Fourchon, and Cameron, providing integrated logistics, procurement, HSE compliance, crane/forklift services, and shorebase management). EPS also operates EPS Medical Solutions, an affiliated sub-brand offering remote and on-site medical specialists, telemedicine, and 24/7 emergency physician coverage.

The company's underlying technology stack centers on a proprietary cargo and materials software platform purpose-built for O&G logistics — delivering shipment tracking, vessel charter management, compliance monitoring, hazmat records, and consumption reporting in a unified database. Operational technology is anchored by heavy fixed infrastructure: approximately 2,830 feet of combined bulkhead/waterfront, water depths up to 30 feet, crane capacity up to 220 tons, multiple forklifts, warehousing, helipad access, video surveillance, and 24/7 staffed operations at select facilities. EPS is also certified through PEC Safety and ISNetworld and maintains an in-house Competency Verification Program with evaluators averaging 30 years of field experience, alongside behavior-based safety programs (POINT, Safety Point Card).

EPS generates revenue primarily through Master Service Agreement-based contracts with enterprise O&G clients, monetizing through staffing fees for placed personnel and managed-services fees for shorebase access, equipment rental, fuel/water services (Cameron), and integrated logistics support. The company employs 11-50 people per its profile, operates under a management team led by President/CEO Todd Matte, EVP Mike Pontiff, and CFO Jenny Dupont, and has expanded historically through acquisitions — notably Shorebase (2008) and Scope International Services (2012) — with current stated intent to pursue further partnerships and acquisitions in shale plays to diversify beyond its Gulf of Mexico core.
