BCCK Inc. said that its founder, Clark Butts and its board of directors have unanimously chosen Kevin Blount as the organization’s next CEO on Feb. 26.
Blount joined BCCK in 2017 after holding a variety of senior leadership positions, including vice president of strategy and business development at Chart Industries, after a 32-year career at Chart.
Blount, who currently serves as BCCK’s COO, will succeed Clark Butts, the company’s founder and current CEO, who after leading the company for 40 years has chosen to step aside from some aspects of the day-to-day operations. Clark will continue to provide strategic oversight to the business but will specifically focus on technology and new product development, championing BCCK in its critical role within the industry as a provider of leading-edge midstream related technologies and services. He will also continue to serve on the company’s board of directors.
“After thorough succession planning, we are pleased to announce this natural evolution in the leadership of the organization,” Clark Butts said. “Kevin has a track record of strong leadership both inside and outside of BCCK. These factors, combined with his deep industry knowledge, make Kevin uniquely qualified to lead BCCK successfully going forward.”
Originally from the U.K., Blount moved to the United States in 2005 and lives in The Woodlands with his wife of thirty-seven years, Julie. He has two children and one grandson.
BCCK Inc. is a Midland-based provider of engineering, procurement, fabrication and field construction services, focusing on midstream oil and natural gas processing applications. The company is backed by SCF Partners and BCCK management.
