Vertically integrated E&P operator with owned drilling and servicing assets
Lewis Energy is a South Texas–based exploration and production company that owns its drilling rigs and servicing equipment, a structural choice that shapes its tech footprint: the stack centers on SCADA (Ignition), industrial protocols (Modbus, OPC, MQTT), and cloud compute (AWS) rather than upstream software platforms. Current project work spans production data analysis, hydraulic fracture design, and SCADA platform upgrades, while pain points cluster around equipment downtime and completion cost reduction—typical for operators managing capital-intensive assets across drilling cycles.
Lewis Energy is a privately held exploration and production company founded in 1983 and based in San Antonio, Texas. The company operates in South Texas natural gas with vertical integration across drilling, servicing, and support functions. Unlike operators that contract drilling capacity, Lewis owns its rigs and field equipment, which influences both operational resilience and technology choices. The organization spans 1,001–5,000 employees across operations, engineering, legal, construction, manufacturing, and support functions. Current hiring focuses on operations and engineering roles across the United States, Vietnam, and Mexico.
Primary tools include Microsoft Office suite, AWS, Active Directory, and industrial control systems: Ignition SCADA, Modbus, OPC, MQTT, and Ethernet. Python is in use for automation and analysis.
