Dril-Quip's Board of Directors is responsible for providing oversight of the corporation's affairs.

We currently have seven members on the Board of Directors, collectively bringing a diversity of backgrounds, thoughts, and industry knowledge ranging from oil and gas to corporate finance, international business and technology.

Dril-Quip has a majority independent board, and split CEO and chairperson roles, factors which are aligned with long-term shareholder interests.

The Board of Directors meets four times a year at a minimum and on an ad-hoc basis as required. Six of Dril-Quip's seven directors are independent under New York Stock Exchange guidelines.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines include the Company's policies regarding the Board of Directors, including but not limited to, director qualifications and responsibilities, election of directors, director compensation, and stock ownership guidelines.
