Artera Services Acquires Ohio-based 1127 Construction Inc.

Strategic acquisition for Artera expands gas distribution services in Ohio

ATLANTA, April 1, 2022 – Artera Services (“Artera”), one of the nation’s industry-leading providers of essential infrastructure services to the natural gas and electric industries, acquired the operating assets of 1127 Construction, Inc. (“1127”). 1127 is a strong strategic fit for Artera, expanding its core gas distribution services in northeast Ohio.

Located in northeast Ohio, 1127 is a family-owned company founded in 2005 providing natural gas distribution and related infrastructure services. The acquisition will expand existing operations in the Ohio Region of Miller Pipeline, an Artera gas distribution business unit, and build on the core service offering of maintenance, replacement, and upgrade (MRU) services. Jeff and Nick Smith will continue to lead business operations and will be overseen by Jim Wilson, Miller Pipeline Vice President of Construction over the Ohio Region.

“We look forward to welcoming Jeff, Nick, and the entire 1127 team to Artera,” said Brian Palmer, CEO of Artera. “Joining our current gas distribution operations in the area with 1127 is a great way for us to expand our footprint and service capabilities in the region.”

“Miller and 1127 share a strong commitment to similar core values, which makes 1127 a natural fit for us.,” said Dale Anderson, President of Miller Pipeline. “I know this combination will result in increased customer satisfaction with our core gas distribution service offerings and more opportunities for all our team members.”

“When my brothers and I started 1127 back in 2005, we did so because we had a passion for the construction industry and wanted to build and improve our underground infrastructure. We are exceedingly proud of our strong safety record and the relationships we have built over the last 17 years. Joining forces with a respected business like Miller Pipeline is the logical next step in that journey,” said Jeff Smith.

Eversheds Sutherland served as legal counsel to Artera.
