Cudd Energy Services ahead in 100% of their meetings
Cudd Energy Services has come out ahead in 3 of their 3 shared contests.
Off the trail for 2.1 years, then back at Permian Basin Barbeque Cook-off by Daniel Energy Partners (COMPETITOR SERIES) (2025-11-11).
The nearest teams in the power rankings, with a different reason on each card — six teams on one rating are rarely on it for the same reason. Rating decides who makes the list; where teams tie on it, the ones this team has actually cooked against come first, then teams at a similar point in their own career. KCBS doesn’t publish where a team is from, so nothing here is inferred from geography.
Wildcat Oil Tools has 2 rated contests — short of the five it takes to earn a power ranking — so this rating has barely moved off the 1500 every team starts on and 121 rated teams sit within a point of it. Read the list as the nearest company at a number nobody here has moved far from, not as a verdict on who this team belongs with.
Careers of much the same size, 5 contests to 4, so neither rating has had more chance to settle than the other.
