About OS
History of the brand
Born from the O&G industries top consultants, First published in 1999 Offshore Source (OS) was launched to fill the need in the market for a newsworthy local O&G publication for the Gulf of Mexico. OS was created to provide a platform for the backbone of the oil and gas industry—its product and service suppliers. OS provides a place for suppliers, big or small, to advertise, but at rates any business can afford.
The magazine was (and still is) distributed through free subscription to ensure that it reaches buyers and decision-makers in key companies across the industry. Its single goal is to supply oil and gas executives, managers, product and service buyers and offshore personnel with breaking news while offering advertisers the single most cost effective way to reach their prospective new or existing clients.

This saves the company and its advertisers the huge expense of postage, but ensures that the maximum amount of decision makers see your advertisement. Making advertising in the magazine the most cost effective way to reach top-level decision makers—in the Gulf of Mexico to the most remote locations around the world.
