The purchase brings roughly 52,000 active and 6,500 idle horsepower under the Nova umbrella, pushing the company's total capacity to approximately 400,000 horsepower. By absorbing EGC’s trucks, service equipment, and personnel, Nova aims to maintain continuity for existing clients while leveraging a broader operational platform. Jonathan Mitchell, CEO of Nova Compression, emphasized that the merger combines two teams aligned on technical service and field integrity. EGC has operated in the South Texas market since 2004, and its integration is expected to provide significant density for Nova’s ongoing projects in the region.

Financial backing for the expansion was provided by an asset-based lending facility led by J.P. Morgan, with support from Bank OZK, First Citizens Bank, and Sunflower Bank. Shareholders OIC LP and Hoak & Co. continued their investment in the firm to facilitate the growth. Legal counsel for the acquisition was provided by Hall Estill LLP, while Foley & Lardner LLP advised on the transaction financing. Nova currently serves producers across six states, including Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico, with a compression portfolio ranging from 100 to 3,000 horsepower.
