Covenant Family
When talking to people outside of our organization, the question I receive most is “Why is Covenant so different from other companies?� My answer is that we are a Team that knows the roles each person plays, and a Family that cares about each member of our organization.
TEAM: My father is a builder, and I grew up working on his projects during my summer and Christmas breaks. During these times, I was able to witness firsthand what an effective team was able to accomplish. The dedication and consistency of the team that he built was the secret to his success. My desire four years ago when coming to Covenant was to be a part of the building of such a team. I have since witnessed the rare assembly of a talented and skilled team that has been able to accomplish remarkable feats. Each one of you are an integral part of that team and our success is dependent on the role that you play every day. FAMILY: Being part of a family means that you have responsibilities and duties, and that you are not alone with
their support. I was able to witness this first hand just this past week when my wife had a sudden heart attack and was rushed into surgery. The prayers and support we received was overwhelming, and reminded me how grateful I am for this Covenant Family. In less than 72 hours, she was home, active, and recovering miraculously. I know the prayers of our family were heard. God is good! I hope you never have to go through an event like that in your lifetime but if so, always know that your family will be here to support you when needed.
As we move forward to improve and strengthen our company, I ask you to look above at our seven core values and recommit yourself to focus on what each one means to you and how you can improve. I am privileged and grateful to be a part of the Team and Family here at Covenant and pray God’s blessing and protection on each of you every day. I look forward to the challenges and exciting days ahead working along side of you. k ev i n ro c k, v p o f s o u t h er n d i v i s i o n

hand SAFETY
OSHA reports that HAND INJURIES are trending upward. These are also the most common injuries away from work, which impacts our daily lives. However, they are also some of the most preventable injuries. Removing rings and choosing the right gloves could be the difference between a bruise and a laceration...or even worse. Be careful with your hands! If you lose the use of your hands, you lose an awful lot.

KAYNE FRYE
DISTRICT MANAGER WELL TESTING & FRAC STACK DIVISION, NLA | ETX Covenant was so fortunate to gain Kayne following the acquisition of Key Energy, where he served in the same role he now serves in here. Kayne Frye has worked in the Oil and Gas Industry for 13 years—nine of which were in Well Testing and Frac Stack, two years were spent off shore, and two years he served as a Mud Engineer. He was born and raised in North Louisiana and has worked in Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and the Gulf of Mexico so far in his Oil and Gas career. When Kayne isn’t working, he enjoys all kinds of hunting and shooting, and especially has a passion for duck hunting. A couple interesting facts about Kayne are that he is celebrating 18 years of marriage this year, and was once a SCUBA instructor and dive master in the Florida Keys. Talk about well-traveled!
YOU CAN REACH KAYNE AT KAYNE.FRYE@CTEST.COM OR 832-590-9705
