TAYO: Texas Oil & Gas Employment Now Exceeds 300,000

As Taylor Consulting, Inc. (OTCBB:TAYO) builds an asset portfolio designed to capitalize on the ongoing West Texas oil boom, new state employment figures reveal why. The number of Texans working for oil and gas companies surpassed 300,000 this summer as the industry continues to expand, according to the Texas Petro Index.

The 302,700 workers now estimated to work for services and exploration and production constitute the largest employment numbers since the Index began tracking them in 1995. Texas’ oil production totaled an estimated 93.65 million barrels in July, the most recent number available. It’s a rise of more than 20 percent over the previous July’s total.

“It’s no secret what’s causing the population boom in West Texas,” said TAYO CEO Scott Wheeler. “It’s the explosion in oil and gas jobs. The same oil and gas activities that are driving population and job growth are driving increasingly strong demand for real estate in the region.”

TAYO is working to supply that demand by buying up distressed assets in the region able to suit a wide variety of commercial or residential needs. Recently, the company completed a 64-lot bulk real estate purchase in the Abilene-Odessa corridor.

TAYO recently created a real estate division, 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.
