​

Terry Whittleton has been working in the Oil Industry for 25 years.  He started as an Operator out of high school in Saskatchewan, and continues as an Operator to this day.

 

Even though he has had numerous opportunities for advancement Terry is happy being an Operator.

 

While doing his job, he found that the standard way of opening and closing the Ratigan's on Well Heads, was frustrating and sometimes dangerous.

 

He took it upon himself to design and patent a safer and more efficient way of opening and closing the Ratigan's on Well Heads.

 

The Ratigan Socket was designed and patented by Terry Whittleton of Medicine Hat, Alberta.
