This is an oral history interview with Chet Morrison conducted as part of the Houston History Project. Houma-native Chet Morrison is the CEO of Chet Morrison Contractors (CMC). He started his company during the 1980s downturn and has integrated into marine fabrication and refurbishing, pipeline construction and transmission, diving, and international operations.  Company significance/history: CMC does topside and pipeline work, and construction work OCS offshore oil and gas. CMC prides themselves on their local work force expertise, however, given the changing labor environment in the marine construction industry, CMC has gone "international" to search for and bring in skilled Mexican workers.
