What Mathews Machine and Hydraulic does

Mathews Machine and Hydraulic is a privately held U.S. manufacturer of hydrostatic testing equipment for the oilfield services industry, founded in 1960 and headquartered at 5514 Northwest Freeway, Wichita Falls, Texas. The company designs and builds mobile and stationary testing units, including Downhole Testing Units, Rack Testing Units, Combination Units (which integrate downhole and rack testing in a single rig), Skid Units, and Trailer Units, with tool sizes ranging from 1 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches. Its core technology centers on hydraulic-driven triplex pumps (up to 22 gpm and 15k PSI), custom spline-shaft winch assemblies, disc brake systems, tandem hydraulic pumps, and proprietary valves including the 15K Pressure Release Valve, Mansaver Valve, High Pressure Check Valve, and the Matpump gear pump (250 gpm). These components are positioned as delivering fast testing cycles with minimal maintenance.

The company operates with 11-50 employees and has produced more than 500 units cumulatively for oilfield service companies across the United States since 1960. Revenue is generated through one-time capital equipment sales of new and used units manufactured to customer specifications, supplemented by an aftermarket parts business for proprietary valves, pumps, and tooling. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, but financing is offered through a partnership with Smarter Finance USA. The company distributes exclusively through direct field sales to U.S. oilfield service customers, with digital presence limited to a company website, Facebook page, and product video gallery.

No institutional investors, parent companies, subsidiaries, M&A activity, or external funding are disclosed; the business appears to be independently owned and operated. Customer logos are not disclosed, and revenue figures are not publicly available. There is no evidence of AI, software, or digital product capabilities, no patents or certifications on record, and geographic reach is limited to the United States.

Products and services

• Downhole Testing Unit Mobile hydraulic testing unit for tubing in the hole, featuring a hydraulic motor-driven Triplex Pump (up to 22 gpm, 15k PSI), custom winch assembly with spline shaft, disc brake, tandem hydraulic pump, cab controls, front-mounted winch, sunroof, and high-definition front camera for wellhead visibility. For oilfield service companies.
• Rack Testing Unit Pipe testing unit for rack applications featuring quick connect handles and man-saver valves for rapid testing with reduced downtime, and a proprietary Matpump gear pump for filling pipe with water, pressure testing, and water recovery. For oilfield service companies.
• Combination Unit Dual-function unit combining downhole and rack testing capabilities, with cab controls for downhole operations and tailgate controls for rack testing, serving all hydrostatic testing needs including power plants.
• Skid Unit Stationary skid-mounted testing unit available in diesel or electric motor configurations, built to customer specifications for downhole or rack testing where mobile units are not required.
• Trailer Unit Trailer-mounted mobile testing unit for transport between locations, configured for downhole or rack testing applications.
• Mathews Machine Tool Sizes (1 1/2 to 4 1/2) Testing tools available in sizes from 1 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches for various oilfield testing applications.
• 15K Pressure Release Valve High-pressure release valve made of hardened stainless steel for hydrostatic testing that releases all high pressure in split seconds, designed for years of field use without parts replacement.
• Mansaver Valve Automatic valve that separates high pressure from low pressure, allowing rapid pipe/tubing filling with a large volume pump then automatically shutting to enable pressure testing.
• High Pressure Check Valve Check valve rated at 50 gpm flow and 15k PSI with all stainless steel construction suitable for various high-pressure applications.
• Water Pump (Matpump Gear Pump) Gear pump with 250 gpm capacity, lightweight design with non-corrosive aluminum housing and sealed bearings, available with stainless steel or brass gears, allowing operators to fill pipe with water, test to pressure, and recover water for the next test.

Broad incumbents

• National Oilwell Varco (NOV): World's largest oilfield equipment manufacturer spanning drilling rigs, wellheads, downhole tools, and pressure equipment. Overlaps with Mathews on the equipment side of wellsite testing and integrity services, but at much greater scale and broader portfolio.
• Weatherford International: Major oilfield services and equipment provider with offerings in well construction, completions, and production testing. Comparable as a broad incumbent executing work that Mathews' hydrostatic testing equipment supports, though primarily a service operator with its own equipment fleet.
• Stewart & Stevenson: Long-standing US manufacturer and distributor of oilfield and industrial equipment, including specialty trucks and rig power systems. Comparable as a broad oilfield equipment incumbent that touches downhole and well-service machinery, though much larger and more diversified than Mathews' niche hydrostatic testing focus.
• Forum Energy Technologies: Global manufacturer of oilfield equipment serving drilling, completions, and production. Comparable as a broad incumbent in oilfield machinery with product lines adjacent to downhole testing, tubular running, and well-site fluid handling equipment that compete for similar service-company capex dollars.
• Halliburton: Largest oilfield services company with substantial well-testing and tubular running service lines that consume or replicate hydrostatic testing capability. Significant indirect overlap with Mathews' customer base, both as buyer of testing services and potential internal supplier of testing equipment.

Regional players

• Packers Plus Energy Services: Manufacturer and supplier of downhole completion tools for the oil and gas industry, with an installed base in North American unconventional plays. Adjacent to Mathews in the downhole oilfield equipment ecosystem and shares the same US operator customer base.

Direct peers

• Key Energy Services: Provider of oilfield services including well-site support, workover, and tubular-related services in the US. Comparable as a customer and proxy for Mathews' equipment being deployed in real wellsite operations.
• Basic Energy Services: US-focused oilfield services provider operating well-site service equipment fleets including pressure testing and tubular services. Direct customer and operational analog to Mathews' target market, operating testing trucks at the wellsite using both in-house and third-party equipment.
• Hydro-Test Products: Manufacturer of hydrostatic and pressure testing equipment serving oilfield, pipeline, and industrial customers with skid and trailer-mounted test units. Closest direct analog to Mathews' product line, packaging high-pressure pumps and instrumentation into mobile test units.

Emerging players

• Waukesha-Pearce Industries: Distributor and service provider for oilfield engines, compressors, and pumping equipment in the US Gulf Coast region. Comparable as a regional supplier of hydraulic and pumping equipment that competes with Mathews for similar wellsite applications.
