Tim Sweeney
Tim Sweeney grew up in the small-town of Rayne, Louisiana working alongside family members at a company founded in 1902 by his Grandparents named Stamm-Scheele which at that time was the 5th largest driller of municipal and industrial water wells in the USA. Stamm-Scheele was also known as an industry leader in the manufacturing of pumps needed for municipal sewerage and sanitation departments, lifting stations, in addition to the ancillary equipment and components needed to keep these systems operating throughout the year. Tim’s time spent at Stamm-Scheele sparked an interest in drilling which led him to pursue a career in the Oil & Gas Industry of South Louisiana.
Mr. Sweeney’s career in the Oil & Gas Industry began in 1980 immediately upon graduating from the LSU School of Engineering. Tim’s first job upon graduating LSU was at BJ-Hughes learning the cementing and completion aspect of drilling wells in the Gulf of Mexico. After a 7-year stint with BJ-Hughes he ventured off to work on the production side of the industry at Nalco Chemical’s Oilfield Division in Sugar Land, Texas. It wasn’t very long afterwards that Tim became Area Manager of the Gulf of Mexico Business Unit eventually transferring to the land division of Nalco Chemical due to the frantic pace of drilling in the Barnett Shale of East Texas and the Haynesville Shale of North Louisiana. Mr. Sweeney’s career with Nalco Chemical spanned a total of 27 years working in multiple positions as an Engineer, Division Manager, and Business Development Specialist before moving to The Woodlands, TX as a Marketing representative for NVI, LLC.
Mr. Sweeney was instrumental in developing new business opportunities for NVI in the fields of direct assessment, auditing, traceability, mechanical integrity, and general NDE services with Enterprise Products, Kinder Morgan, Loop, LLC, Williams Pipeline, Spectra Energy, Enbridge and Energy Transfer before accepting an offer to return once again to the chemical business in 2016 for Flotek Industries as their Executive Account Manager focused on serving the Fracking Industry.
Tim recently joined Olivier International in August 2020 as a Business Development Representative serving Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Louisiana.
Mr. Sweeney currently resides in The Woodlands, TX with his wife and high school sweetheart, Beverly. Tim’s hobbies run parallel to many South Louisiana traditions in that he is the happiest cooking, duck hunting, and fishing with friends and family and is even known to play a few rounds of golf. Tim is a devout catholic who attends mass every Sunday to thank the good lord for all of his blessings that he has bestowed upon his family, friends, colleagues, and country. Tim believes that a man’s greatest asset is his reputation and always looks forward to serving his clients and community.
