August was another strong month for Texas’ oil and gas industry, despite
declining crude prices. Taylor Consulting Inc. (OTCBB:TAYO) continues to
execute its corporate plan to capitalize on the state’s historic boom as
production there rises to unprecedented levels.
Crude oil production in Texas, spurred by unconventional drilling in the
Permian Basin and elsewhere, rose more than 23 percent this August over
the totals for the same period last year. Production was estimated at
95.56 million barrels compared with 77.6 million barrels in August 2013.
With the industry investing in Texas in a major way this year,
employment in drilling and oil-field services surged to 307,700 in
August, an 8.3-percent rise over the same period last year. With oil and
gas pouring out of Texas, even U.S. intervention in Syria could not
disrupt gasoline prices this month.
The major increase in oil and gas employment and activity in Texas has
created a tight demand for real estate here—especially in West Texas
near the Permian Basin, the new heart of U.S. oil production. TAYO is
building a portfolio of real estate assets in the region to capitalize
on West Texas’ rapid growth.
The company has already acquired multiple properties located on or near
the Permian Basin as well as executed a letter of intent to form a
property development joint venture with The Home Masters Inc.
TAYO recently created Third Avenue Development, LLC to invest in
promising real estate assets to compete alongside American Homes 4 Rent
(NYSE: AMH), Silver Bay Realty Trust Corp. (NYSE: SBY), Equity
Residential (NYSE: EQR) and Essex Property Trust Inc. (NYSE: ESS) and
more.
