History
In the industry since 1990, founder Denny Robblee established Premier Drilling Company in Elko, Nevada, in 2014 with a couple of rotary rigs and a passion for excellence. Denny’s work ethic and passion are summed up in his favorite saying, “Do the difficult right away; the impossible takes a little longer.” Denny has been invited to participate in catastrophic underground rescue efforts because of his reputation for drilling expertise and ingenuity. Denny ensures the team members have the above-industry-standard tooling and equipment and utilizes top-tier protocols to meet or exceed client expectations safely.
James Stephens, a partner at Premier Drilling Company, has been involved in the drilling industry since 1989 and joined the company in 2021. He leads strategic project planning and estimating and ensures excellent communication with clients from the initial discussions to completion. Stephens ensures clients are aware of the various tools in the toolbox available at Premier Drilling Company, particularly the expert supervisors, drillers, and crews. During pre-con, weekly, budget, and KPI meetings, Stephens also facilitates effective communication among the clients, supervisors, crews, safety personnel, vendors, and subcontractors to help ensure that we clearly understand and are meeting the client’s expectations.
Denny and James have more than 70 years of combined experience in the drilling business.
