Higginbotham and EnRisk Services Partner to Serve Texas Energy Industry

Independent insurance and financial services brokerage firm, Higginbotham & Associates, has engaged EnRisk Services, an insurance broker and risk manager for the energy industry, to supplement its existing Energy Division. Both firms are headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas.

Higginbotham launched its Energy Division in 2000 to provide oil and gas companies with specialized insurance marketing, placement and risk management for the energy industry’s highly technical property and liability exposures. Its energy customers are exploration and production companies with onshore and offshore operations and oilfield service companies involved in drilling, construction and pipelines. Higginbotham also brokers broad commercial and personal property/casualty coverage, employee benefits and life insurance.

EnRisk is an independent insurance brokerage firm that has served the energy industry exclusively for 34 years. The firm places traditional and energy-specific property/casualty coverage and provides risk identification and safety, claims and contractual liability management.

EnRisk employs a staff of 30 energy professionals that serve more than 225 companies involved in exploration, production, gas gathering and processing. The firm operates a second office in Houston.

Higginbotham partnered with EnRisk to enhance its energy insurance resources and accommodate the complex operations of companies involved in the Texas oil and gas market. Energy-related services have long been in high demand in Fort Worth and more so with the natural gas boom of recent years.
