Career Site

Hornbeck Offshore Services is a leading provider of technologically advanced offshore service vessels (OSV) serving the offshore oil and gas industry, primarily in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and in select international markets. The focus of the OSV business is on complex exploration and production activities, which include deepwater, deep well and other logistically demanding projects.

The company is also a leading transporter of petroleum products through the tug and tank barge segment serving the energy industry, primarily in the northeastern United States and Puerto Rico.

Hornbeck has a fleet of over 80 offshore service vessels. OSVs primarily serve exploratory and developmental drilling rigs and production facilities and support offshore construction and subsea maintenance activities. OSVs differ from other types of marine vessels in their cargo carrying flexibility and capacity. In addition to transporting deck cargo, such as pipe or drummed material and equipment, OSVs also transport liquid mud, potable and drilling water, diesel fuel, dry bulk cement and personnel between shore bases and offshore rigs and facilities.

Hornbeck customers include most of the nation's top oil companies.

Revenues for 2007 were $339 million, a 23% increase, and net income was $94.8 million.
