This page is part of our public exclusion list — a transparency tool that shows which companies we screen out and why. It is not investment advice, and it is not an accusation. But it is subject to change as our understanding of the facts evolves.
Ranger Energy Services is an oilfield services company whose core business is providing specialized equipment and labor for drilling, completing, and maintaining oil and gas wells. The company operates one of the largest fleets of high-specification mobile rigs in the United States and derives its revenue from cased hole wireline services, well servicing, and other ancillary services directly supporting fossil fuel extraction.
The company’s operations carry significant safety risks, documented by a pattern of regulatory violations. ViolationTracker records 24 workplace safety and health incidents with total penalties exceeding $630,000. In one fatal incident, an employee was crushed and killed when a blowout preventer fell over during operations. Another OSHA enforcement action in 2022 resulted in penalties of $319,058. This record of safety failures is intrinsic to the company’s role in a high-hazard industry.

The Naughty List
A digest of changes to our exclusion list — new additions, removals, and the evidence behind them. We review the list continuously as new evidence surfaces.
Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.
