Oil & Gas scenario

Field service company covers crews on 90-day operator terms

Challenge: An operator stretched payment on approved field tickets to nearly 90 days while crews and equipment rentals were due weekly.
Solution: Oilfield factoring advanced against approved field tickets as soon as they were signed.
Outcome: Crews stayed deployed through the stretch and the company took on a second pad.
