OESP’s Dave Nelsen Scholarship Program was established in 1999 to provide scholarships to students interested in pursuing their careers in the energy service industry.
OESP expanded this program last year to Technicians in the energy service industry for qualifying education up to a maximum of $2,000.
Since 1999, more than $300,000 in awards have been presented. To be considered a candidate, applicants are required to write a 500-word essay telling the committee about themselves, including their background that has prepared them for success in their chosen field of study. Each year we receive hundreds of applications that are reviewed by our dedicated scholarship committee.
