SHOCO PRODUCTIONS

Shoco Production, LLC, is an independent oil and gas company based in Longview, Texas. We are a family-owned exploration and production company now in its third generation of family ownership. Shoco operates wells throughout the State of Texas... The organization that is today Shoco Production, LLC was originally founded in 1964 by C.W. "Bill" Shore in Kilgore, Texas. Bill came to Kilgore from Arkansas during the East Texas Oil Boom in the early 1930s. Bill originally started a water company to deliver water to the camps of oilfield workers. He later went into the dry goods business to supply the growing town and eventually opened a store in downtown Kilgore called Shore Sales. Bill had always had interests in oil and gas deals while he was growing his business, but after he sold the store in 1964, he went into the oil and gas business full time.
