Keeping Cash Flowing in Oil & Gas: Why the Right Factoring Partner Matters

By Bob Baker, Owner of Baker Garrington

In oil and gas, momentum is everything. From drill sites to trucking fleets, operations don’t stop—and neither can your cash flow.

While your teams are on the ground delivering results, delayed payments and steep upfront costs can create real bottlenecks. That’s where Baker Garrington comes in.

We’ve worked alongside oil and gas operators across North America, helping them fund payroll, manage working capital, and scale—fast.

The Cash Flow Challenge in Oil & Gas

Payment terms are being extended and rates cut—while expenses like labor, fuel, and equipment demand immediate attention.

For many growing or privately held firms, the lack of cash reserves or traditional financing can stall growth—even with strong contracts in hand.

Choosing the Right Factoring Partner

Not all factoring firms are created equal. Ask:

  • Do they understand your industry and payment timelines?
  • Can they fund on short notice?
  • Are terms flexible, or full of red tape?
  • Do they offer operational value beyond funding?

Baker Garrington checks all the boxes.
