Brothers at the Helm: Steering PESCO into the Future of Oil and Gas


In the heart of small-town America, where the spirit of community and innovation runs deep, are Kyle and Jim Rhodes, two brothers making an impact in the oil and gas industry. At the heart of their journey is Process Equipment & Service Company (PESCO), a forerunner of engineering excellence and a testament to the legacy of a family's dream to create career paths and provide solutions in the energy sector.


A Legacy Forged by Values


Founded in 1970 by Ed and Mary Lou Rhodes, PESCO began as a humble venture with a grand vision: to be a cornerstone of the Four Corners community, offering superior products, and fostering a work environment that felt more like a family— like the community they’d come from. Over fifty years on, it’s evident that PESCO has evolved to exceed those expectations, becoming the industry leader in the oil and gas sector renowned for its innovative solutions in production equipment design and manufacturing.


PESCO's success is driven by a commitment to integrity, mutual respect, trust, and excellence. These values guide the company at every level, ensuring transparent processes, fair pricing, and a dedication to delivering on promises made to its customers.


Innovation Through Leadership


In carrying on the legacy of their parents, Kyle and Jim have taken the helm with an outlook that embraces tradition and innovation. Under their leadership, PESCO is thriving. They lead with a blend of respect for the company's rich history and a dynamic, forward-thinking strategy that aims to adapt and grow with the industry. By focusing on both the development of cutting-edge solutions while maintaining the rock-solid quality and reliability their equipment is known for, PESCO remains at the forefront of technological advancements while also prioritizing sustainability and efficiency efforts.


A Vision for the Future


Kyle and Jim are aiming to do more than sustain PESCO's legacy; they are determined to expand its impact for years to come. Their vision is to not only provide continuous improvement of the company's offerings but also a renewed commitment to the community that has been the backbone of their success. As they invest in the next generation of engineers, designers, and technicians they’re laying the groundwork for a future where PESCO continues to lead and innovate in the oil and gas industry, while continuing to provide that family-like work environment that started it all.



A Call to Action


The story of PESCO under the stewardship of Kyle and Jim is more than an inspiring narrative; it's a call to action. It’s about recognizing the potential of leadership that is grounded in traditional values, driven by innovation, and committed to excellence. As the industry faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities, partnering with companies like PESCO is essential for navigating the path forward with integrity.

As the Rhodes brothers steer their family's company into the future, their journey is exemplary for those aspiring to make a meaningful impact in their communities and the oil and gas industry.
