FAQ

  • Do your guards need to be licensed to work on oilfield locations in Texas?
    Yes. Texas law requires a Level II Private Security License issued by the Texas DPS Private Security Bureau for armed security work. All South Texas Gate Guard personnel hold this license — License No. B10506901.
  • What areas of Texas do you cover?
    We cover all 254 counties in Texas, including the Permian Basin (Midland, Odessa, Pecos), Eagle Ford Shale (Laredo, San Antonio, Corpus Christi corridor), East Texas / Haynesville, and the Gulf Coast. No area is out of range.
  • How quickly can you deploy to a new location?
    In most cases we can deploy within 24–48 hours of a confirmed order. For remote or multi-gate locations, we plan logistics in advance so your spud date never gets delayed by security.
  • Do you require long-term contracts?
    No. We work on straightforward daily rates with no minimum contract length. Projects can run a week or two years — we scale with you.
  • Can you staff multiple gates on a large pad or facility?
    Yes. We regularly run multi-gate deployments with dedicated access points for water haulers, service contractors, and company personnel. Contact us with your site layout and we'll build a staffing plan.
