nnovators respond to the need for new technologies, services and strategies. They open
new doors of opportunity and profitability for their clients. Innovators accept the
challenge to create and offer fresh alternatives to get the job done when traditional
methods fail.
Today, more than ever, it is critical to align your company with strategic partners that are prepared to
accept the unavoidable challenges associated with today’s fast-paced ever-changing marketplace.
A competitive market demands that you lead,follow or get out of the way. Michels leads.

directional drilling projects require specialized equipment that simply doesn’t exist, Michels
fabricates custom directional drilling equipment to get the job done.
