Foothills Resource Services Information

Foothills Resource Services was founded in 1960 as Foothills Diamond Coring and has since become a recognized leader around the world. The company began operations as a conventional coring service provider in the oil and gas industry and since then has grown to become a leading provider of conventional, wireline, long barrel and specialized coring services, both onshore and offshore. FRS also designs and manufactures coring equipment. Foothills has grown its business in Canada and internationally by remaining highly competent, and technically innovative in the most rugged conditions. Experience counts in coring. The diverse range of formations and situations encountered in drilling create tremendous pressure to be right the first time. Foothills uses an extensive database to research each coring location ensuring the very best equipment, processes and transport are available to do the job. Coring is part art, part science and mostly experience. Foothills has extensively trained coring experts who customize each core job for optimal performance. Innovation is an engrained process at Foothills. Creating new and better solutions has been a hallmark of the company including Low Invasion PDC coring bits, a range of diamond bits customized for a variety of borehole sizes and conditions and specialized retrieval methods. Foothills proprietary "High Torque" threads were developed for difficult coring conditions in overseas markets and they continue to be utilized more each year. International Sales and Services have grown steadily based on the reputation Foothills has earned. Foothills Resource Services products and services are used in over 14 countries around the world. International Oil companies call Foothills whether they are looking for quality parts, a complete turnkey system or services to manage a complex coring program.
