NexTier Closing Frack Office, Laying Off 104 in Tioga County, PA
Last June, Patterson-UTI Energy, which operates roughly half of the active rigs in the Marcellus/Utica, announced it was merging with NexTier Oilfield Solutions in a combination that would create the #1 company in fracking services in the country (see Patterson-UTI & NexTier to Merge, Bigger Fracker than Halliburton). The merger was completed last September. However, the NexTier name was kept on the door, at least in some locations, including an office with operations in Mansfield (Tioga County), PA. NexTier recently filed a WARN notice that it will close the Mansfield office and begin to lay off its 104 employees effective April 13th.
