About Us

Hamilton Energies, LLC (HE) is the oldest company in The Hamilton Holdings Group and the oldest oil company in Dou Boux.

Hamilton Energies was founded as The Hamilton Oil Company on the 1st of January 1879 by Geoffrey Hamilton to exploit the enormous oil reserves found under his family's farm, Colline, just outside Los Bouxiana. Colline, then a tobacco farm, was struggling under a tremendous drought when Geoffrey, then a geology student stumbled on part of the oil deposit that would make him famous. This deposit formed part of the greatest oil deposit in all of Dou Boux. Geoffrey, not realizing the full extent of what he discovered, used the part of his family's savings to set up his first well, Hamilton 1, just outside the now worthless tobacco fields. He refined the crude he retrieved from this well in a disused barn on the farm.

In May 1879, Geoffrey (wanting to ascertain the full extent of the deposit) used the last of his family's savings to buy up all of the neighboring farms (until he had a landholding of some twenty-five thousand acres) to hire William "Boss Bill" Everett, a legendry wildcat, and his team to come and ascertain the true extent of the deposits. After spending a week on the farm, Everett ascertained the reserves to be worth approximately between three and three-and-a-half trillion barrels worth. This was confirmed by many of the country's leading experts at the time. Geoffrey's gamble had paid off in ways that he couldn't ever imagine - he had stumbled on the largest oil deposit in Dou Bouxian history, which would change his family's life for generations to come.

Business quickly picked up for the Hamilton Oil Company after that. Geoffrey applied from a loan from The Los Bouxiana Mutual Savings Bank and used that money to set up more wells on that vast landholding he acquired (he named the land The Mariana Belt after his mother). By 1885, the Mariana Belt consisted of some ten fields with ten wells in each field. Geoffrey built a refinery on belt capable of refining thousands of barrels worth per day. Total production for that year was some fifty million barrels, and at a selling price of some two Dou Bouxian Pounds a barrel, made the family millionaires. Geoffrey and his parents decided to move out of the farmhouse and into a residence more in keeping with their new wealth and position. For months they battled to find a residence until one day, while traveling up the Caberna River, Geoffrey spotted the plantation house of Mount Edgecombe Plantation, a once-thriving cotton plantation owned by the Spalding family. Geoffrey couldn't help take a look. He met Patrick Spalding, the elderly owner, and his daughter, Eliza. Geoffrey and Eliza fell head-over-heels in love and married in 1886. Geoffrey's money saved the crumbling estate, and after Patrick Spalding died, Geoffrey, Eliza and Geoffrey's parents moved into the newly restored Mount Edgecombe. Geoffrey and Eliza were married for sixty years (until Eliza died in 1951) and had three children: Robert, Constance and Elizabeth. Geoffrey. Sir Geoffrey (he was knighted in 1920) died in 1955, having served as Chairman of the Hamilton Oil Company for seventy years (from 1879 to 1949), and then in an advisory capacity during his retirement.

Robert John "RJ" Spalding Hamilton succeeded his father as Chairman in 1949 and helped take this company to incredible heights of prosperity. During his tenure, the Mariana Belt was increased from ten to fifty fields and some five-hundred wells. In 1950, the Hamilton Oil Company had a turnover of DB£2,500,000,000 (two billion, five hundred million Dou Bouxian Pounds), making the once poverty-stricken Hamilton family, billionaires for the first time. The company expanded operations into Du Mont and Falconsborough with the purchase of the Dominique and Eliza Belts respectively.

In 1965, HCO opened it's seven-hundred and fiftieth well in Bonafacio, Dou Boux. The well was opened by Caroline, Robert's wife, and Armando De Luca, the then Mayor of Bonafacio. Between 1949 and 1070, HCO laid some five thousand kilometers of pipeline in three countries and opened it's tenth refinery. The company also unveiled it's new drill bit for hitting low-lying crude in frozen fields, The Hamilton Colline. At the time, it was estimated that the drill-bit would bring in DB£500,000,000 (five hundred million Dou Bouxian Pounds) over ten years, but instead it brought in some thirty billion. In 1976, HCO purchased Essex Oil Refineries, Inc. for some DB£500,000,000 (five hundred million Dou Bouxian Pounds), worth approximately DB£5,000,000,000 today (five billion Dou Bouxian Pounds). Essex Oil Refineries was renamed Hamilton Refineries in 1977. In 1985, HCO moved into its new headquarters, Hamilton Plaza, a revolutionary building for the decade, worth some DB£500,000,000.00 (five hundred million Dou Bouxian Pounds).

Robert Hamilton retired as Chairman in December 2000, after serving as Chairman of HCO for fifty years and three months. Robert "RJ" Hamilton died in 2005, aged 108 years old. He left behind an oil empire nearly thirty times that of hid father, but one of trust, loyalty and integrity.

Charles Arthur Hamilton, Robert's son, succeeded his father as Chairman of HCO on the 2nd of December 2000. Charles, having previously served as HCO's Chief Executive Officer from the late '60's, helped HCO reach heights that his grandfather could probably have never have imagined. It has been during his tenure that the company expanded into the international market with the establishment of refineries in countries like Hundredstar and others.

Throughout his tenure as Chairman, Charles has pioneered a program for the promotion of sustainable energy. This program has been the driving force in the conversion of the majority of Hamilton wells into environmentally friendly, minimal pollutant, energy savers. He has pioneered another environmental program, unique in the history of Dou Boux. Called 10 for 1. This program plants one indigenous tree for every ten barrels of oil retrieved from the Earth. For every one hundred barrels, the company re-habilitates one acre of land into wild forest or nature reserve. Since the program started in late 2001, it has planted nearly fifty million trees and re-habilitated thousands of acres of land. Charles was knighted in 2005 for services to the oil industry and to the environment.

Charles has been instrumental in promoting the use of more efficient technology in the drilling process and in 2015, he pioneered the creation of a revolutionary drill that had the ability to retrieve nearly fifty percent more crude than The Hamilton Colline and at deeper levels. Called The Hamilton Exito (The Hamilton Success) was released on the first of July 2015. It is estimated that by January 2020, the Exito will be the standard drill used in every one of the company's several thousand fields.

In October 2016, Sir Charles and his sister, Jane Constance Hamilton Newcome, The Dowager Baroness Newcome, founded The Hamilton Holdings Group, to consolidate the Hamilton family's growing assets and to act as a holdings company for the same. Through mutual agreement of the Hamilton family members, Hamilton Energies become a fully owned subsidiary of The Hamilton Holdings Group on the 1st of November 2016, and continues to remain as such.

Ever conscious of the need to keep the company up to date, in 2017, Charles decided that HCO's general branding (which had not changed for some forty years) should be updated and as he put it in an interview, "brought into the 21st century". The Hamilton Oil Company (HCO) become Hamilton Energies (HE), and the company's decades old dominant colours of black and gold become a modern aqua and white.

Throughout its long history, Hamilton Energies had promoted three core values honesty, value and integrity. These values have been a core part of our business model since Ol' Geoffrey started with one well in 1879, and they'll be a core part of our business model for centuries to come!
