About Arch Rock
The story of Archrock isn't one of a typical startup, but an evolution through strategic consolidation in the natural gas industry. Its origins trace back through legacy companies like Hanover Compressor and Universal Compression. The modern Archrock, however, was officially formed in November 2015. This happened through a significant corporate event: a spin-off from Exterran Holdings. Exterran separated its international and fabrication businesses, and the remaining U.S. natural gas contract compression services company was renamed Archrock, Inc., led by President and CEO D. Bradley Childers. This strategic move created a pure-play U.S. provider, allowing for a more focused strategy. Based in Houston, Texas, Archrock operates as a critical energy infrastructure company. It primarily leases and services a massive fleet of equipment used for natural gas compression, a vital step in transporting gas from wellheads to pipelines. This makes them a key partner for oil and gas producers across the United States. Since its formation, Archrock has grown significantly through acquisitions. It has re-integrated some of Exterran's former U.S. assets and acquired other companies to expand its fleet and market density, solidifying its position as a leader in the sector. Today, Archrock is a publicly traded company on the NYSE, continuing to play an essential role in the U.S. energy landscape.
