888-400-6294 ABOUT Butch’s is a result of relentless vision and quality work. Safety History Philanthropy Leadership Butch Scott BUTCH BRYANT Mr. L.D. “Butch” Bryant began his career in the oil industry as a bookkeeper for a local trucking company. Shortly thereafter, he began working for a major international bit company and quickly rose to the top after becoming a leading salesman. It was then that he noticed a niche needed to be filled around Levelland, TX. In 1980, Butch formed Butch’s Rat Hole, Inc. to provide service to the oil and gas producers of Hockley County. After spending a few years focusing solely on the rat hole portion of oil well drilling, Mr. Bryant knew that acquiring an anchor service was the next step in growing the business. In 1982, Butch purchased an anchor division from another local businessman in Levelland and the company officially became Butch’s Rat Hole & Anchor Service, Inc. From 1983 to 1990 Butch expanded the operations of the company by securing several contracts with major drilling operators in the area. These partnerships generated capital for the organization and made the acquisition of additional equipment such as backhoes, dump trucks and forklifts as well as services like foundation drilling possible. During the 1990’s, Butch led the company through a period of conservative and well-planned actions that established the company in the industry and prepared the organization to meet the future demands of the market. It was during this time that the trucking division was formed. Butch had no idea that the creation of this division would establish Butch’s as one of the largest rig moving companies in the United States. After spending over 45 years in the oil and natural gas industry, Butch transitioned out of day-to-day operations and his son, Scott Bryant advanced into a leadership role within the corporation in 2001. Mr. Bryant graduated from Texas Tech University in 1972 with a degree in education. Butch has a passion for aiding students attending South Plains College and has devoted a great deal of personal investments to the South Plains College Foundation. © 2021 Butch’s Inc.
