Select Energy Services, LLC
Select Energy Services (“SES”) is an industry leader in delivering innovative and efficient end-to-end water solutions and well-site services to energy producers. Select was founded in 2007 when John Schmitz and a few key industry leaders founded Peak Wellsite Rentals, LLC, in Gainesville, Texas. In 2008, the company acquired Impact Energy Services and certain business lines of Complete Production Services; the combined entity was officially renamed Select Energy Services. Later, in 2010, B-29 and an outside private equity firm recapitalized SES. After growing the Company organically and through acquisitions, Select Energy Services completed an IPO in April 2017. Select Energy Services trades on the NYSE under the ticker “WTTR”.
