Our Story

Central Region Inspection Services, Inc. (“CRIS”) is a new name to a company rich in oil and gas pipeline inspection knowledge. Brion and Nikole Larson purchased CR Inspection, Inc., in 2020, now operating as CRIS. Our mission is to continue to provide inspection services to companies that align with our safety and integrity values throughout the United States. Our corporate office and staff remains the same in Hugoton, Kansas.

CRIS is determined to continue the reputation of the oldest, continuously operating third-part oil and gas pipeline inspection company in the country. Our history started with the Gale Reese Company spanning 34 years (1974-2008), continuing with CR Inspection Services, Inc., from 2008-2020. Even though the name has changed again, we are determined to keep the integrity of the original company alive.
We are very proud of this company’s reputation in the oil and gas pipeline inspection industry. CRIS will continue moving forward with the existing culture and core values built over decades of experience, ensuring our clients receive a service we are proud to put our name on, completed safely, and with integrity.
