Decades of Success
In 1933, a small group of big thinkers came together to engineer the “Best Pumps in the Oil Patch™.” Ninety years later, the Harbison-Fischer® name is synonymous with rod pump innovation and quality. A decade ago, two pioneering companies joined forces to create PCS Ferguson. Today, the PCS Ferguson brand is acknowledged as the mark of excellence in gas lift and plunger lift technology.
As ChampionX celebrates the 90th anniversary of Harbison-Fischer’s founding and commemorates the 10th anniversary of the merger that formed PCS Ferguson, we thank both our customers and our employees for their dedication and loyalty over the years. We look forward to working arm-in-arm to reach the next milestones in our shared journey!
