About
Western Land Services, Inc. was formed in 1974 as Western States Oil Company, Inc. by T.T. Thompson. Mr. Thompson is a graduate of the University of Virginia and the Harvard Law School. He had been with Shell Oil Company for 19 years as a Division Landman prior to forming Western States Oil Company. During the 1970s and early 1980s, Western States Oil Company was primarily focused on oil and gas prospect generation in the State of Michigan. The Niagaran formation was a major oil and gas play in Northern Michigan in which Western Land developed numerous drilling prospects for the industry. In 1980, John K. Wilson joined the firm as a landman. John is a graduate of Michigan State University's School of Business. Mr. Wilson worked his way up through the firm to Vice President of Land in 1989, and purchased the company in 1992 upon the retirement of T.T. Thompson. During the late 1980s and through the 1990s Western Land Services, Inc. developed into a major oil and gas brokerage service company providing land and regulatory services to oil and gas companies and utilities. Some of Western Land Services' clients have included: Unocal, Arco, Gulf Oil, Tenneco, CMS Oil & Gas, Chevron, Martin Marietta, Williams Energy, Marathon Oil Company, Wolverine Gas and Oil Corporation, Berry Petroleum, Western Gas Resources, and numerous other smaller independents.
