About Us

Since its inception in 1953, Martin Water Laboratory has served the Permian Basin and surrounding areas with all its water analytical needs with precision, dedication and honest results. Though specializing in water, we provide a variety of other analytical needs ranging from oil, scaling/solids, bacterial studies as well as having one of the largest original formation water records in the Permian Basin dating back to 1950. Beyond the oil patch we offer several types of analysis for residential water wells, home inspections, mortgage requirements, irrigation purposes and livestock use. No matter what your need, we are here to help!

Working since 1980, owner and Chemist Greg Ogden has over 38 years worth of water expertise, being trained by founder Waylan Martin. Martin Water Labs has been a staple trademark in the industry for half a century, with trained personnel continued to this day in his son, Bryan Ogden.

Our top priority and purpose for our business is assuring results to the highest standard of honesty and integrity. We do not produce or sell any product. Our only service is an unbiased and accurate analysis.
