Description: NGS Natural Gas December 29, 2025
Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. (NYSE: NGS) rents, operates, and maintains natural-gas compressors for U.S. oil and gas producers and processors, while also designing, assembling, and selling compressor frames, cylinders, and related components. Founded in 1998 and based in Midland, Texas, the firm’s core business is the provision of compression equipment and aftermarket services, including an exchange and rebuild program for small-horsepower screw compressors.
Key performance indicators from the most recent fiscal year show revenue of roughly $150 million, an EBITDA margin near 15 %, and a fleet utilization rate of about 85 %, indicating strong demand for compression capacity. The company’s backlog of long-term rental contracts exceeds $200 million, providing visibility into future cash flows. Primary economic drivers are U.S. dry-gas production growth (≈ 3 % YoY) and the expansion of LNG export terminals, both of which increase the need for reliable compression services.
