THREE GENERATIONS OF OIL AND GAS PRODUCITION
Mr. Tom Gouger, President of Texas Oil and Minerals, Inc. operating under BNPD (OTC Markets: BNPD), is a third generation oilman. His grandfather, James G. McCarrick, was a produce distributor from New York who migrated to Corpus Christi, Texas in the 1920s. McCarrick was presented with an opportunity to become a business partner in the drilling on lands he had acquired from the growers he knew in the produce business after the discovery well in the Agua Dulce Field was drilled in 1928. The success of this partnership enabled McCarrick to form the McCarrick Oil Company, which operated 125 wells in the field that produced over 53 million barrels of oil. Ten years later McCarrick Oil obtained leases in the Seeligson Field that produced over 272 million barrels of oil.
Mr. Gouger's father, Tom M. Gouger, Jr., served in World War II and later graduated from the University of Texas. He worked at his father's bank in Robstown, Texas after graduation, but when they moved to San Antonio where he began working for his father-in-law's oil company. Richardson & Stewart and McCarrick Oil Company. In the 1950s Mr. Gouger, Jr. became a partner and the name was changed to Stewart and Gouger Drilling. The two men had many successful projects together, but the most prominent one was Sullivan Wells, located on the Maxine East Field in Live Oak County, Texas, which still actively produces oil and gas today.
Mr. Tom M. Gouger III was hired by his family's company, McCarrick, Gouger, and Mitchell in 1975 to obtain leases and drilling contracts, clear titles, and build surface locations during the first Austin Chalk boom of the Pearsall area. From 1975-1995 he learned all aspects of drilling and accumulated a vast knowledge of all operations as the company drilled over 25 operated wells and an additional 40 non-operated wells in the Austin Chalk and Gulf Coast region. They also participated in over 40 wells as a non-operating working interest owner in Wyoming, Oklahoma and Kansas.
Mr. Gouger purchased 6 of his own wells in 1985 and started Gouger Oil Company. In 1995 Mr. Gouger started Tejones Operating Corp. and purchased 125 wells in Howard, Glasscock, and Crockett Counties, Texas. He sold all of these except for the 25 wells in Crockett County in 2004. Mr. Gouger and his son, Tom M. Gouger IV also established Oilfield Cementing Company in 2001 with the main focus of plugging orphan wells for the Railroad Commission of Texas and Independent Operators. From 2004 to 2007 they plugged more than 500 wells with depths ranging from 400 to 8,000 feet. They closed down the company in 2007 and refocused efforts on the purchasing of production and the generation and selling of oil and gas prospects in south Texas.
Mr. Gouger has currently obtained a number of prospects in South Texas that are ready to drill, or are in the process of obtaining leases on their land. Mr. Hal Basham, a geologist, joined the company in 2008 to assist Mr. Gouger with the selling and geological review of prospects so that Mr. Gouger has more time to handle daily operations of the company.
Mr. Gouger stated, "As a third generation Independent Oil and Gas Producer/Operator, I am pleased to announce the formation of my new public company, Texas Oil and Minerals, Inc. This new company will be an extension of my thirty five years experience in lease acquisition, exploration, purchasing and marketing of Oil and Gas prospects in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. I look forward to sharing good fortune with you all."
