Our Story

Family-Owned.
Basin-Proven.

In 1994, John and Joy Hatch started JRH Contracting with a simple mission: provide honest, safe, and efficient oilfield services to operators in the Uintah Basin.

What began as a small operation — wellsite cleanups, fencing pits, and hotshot deliveries — has grown into a full-service contractor covering everything from drilling support to midstream infrastructure.

Three decades later, JRH remains family-owned and deeply rooted in the community, sponsoring local events like the Uintah Basin Jr. Livestock Show and the annual Gobbler 5K fundraiser.
