Gentlemen:

     We have acted as special counsel to (a) Basic Energy Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and (b) each of the entities listed on Schedule A attached hereto (each a “Company,” collectively, the “Guarantors,” and collectively with the Issuer, the “Companies”), in connection with the preparation of a registration statement on Form S-3 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Registration Statement relates to the offering from time to time, as set forth in the Registration Statement, the form of prospectus contained therein (the “Prospectus”) and one or more supplements to the Prospectus (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”), of (i) shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Shares”), of the Issuer, (ii) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Preferred Shares”), of the Issuer, (iii) senior debt securities (“Senior Debt Securities”) of the Issuer, (iv) subordinated debt securities (“Subordinated Debt Securities,” and together with the Senior Debt Securities, “Debt Securities”) of the Issuer, (v) guarantees of Debt Securities by the Guarantors (“Guarantees”), (vi) warrants to purchase debt or equity securities of the Issuer (“Warrants”), and (vii) units (“Units”) consisting of one or more of the securities referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), or any combination thereof, having an aggregate initial public offering price (for all such securities referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vii)) not to exceed U.S.$1,000,000,000, on terms to be determined at the time of the offering thereof. The securities referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vii) are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.” All capitalized terms that are not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Registration Statement or in either of the Indentures (as defined below).

     Senior Debt Securities will be issued pursuant to a senior indenture substantially in the form attached as Exhibit 4.6 to the Registration Statement (the “Senior Indenture”), between the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Senior Debt Trustee”), as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, including at the time of and in connection with the issuance of such Senior Debt Securities. Guarantees of Senior Debt Securities will be issued pursuant to the Senior Indenture, as it may be amended or supplemented

from time to time, including pursuant to supplemental indentures among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee entered into at the time of and in connection with the issuance of such Guarantees and such Senior Debt Securities. Similarly, Subordinated Debt Securities will be issued pursuant to a subordinated indenture substantially in the form attached as Exhibit 4.7 to the Registration Statement (the “Subordinated Indenture,” and together with the Senior Indenture, the “Indentures”), between the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Subordinated Debt Trustee”), as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, including at the time of and in connection with the issuance of such Subordinated Debt Securities. Guarantees of Subordinated Debt Securities will be issued pursuant to the Subordinated Indenture, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, including pursuant to supplemental indentures among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee entered into at the time of and in connection with the issuance of such Guarantees and such Subordinated Debt Securities.

     The Warrants will be issued pursuant to a warrant agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) between the Issuer and a warrant agent.

     In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have examined (i) the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Issuer, (ii) the Registration Statement, (iii) the Prospectus, (iv) the forms of the Indentures, and (v) originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of such other instruments and other certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Issuer and such other persons as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

     In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed and have not verified (i) the genuineness of the signatures on all documents that we have examined, (ii) the legal capacity of all natural persons, (iii) the authenticity of all documents supplied to us as originals and (iv) the conformity to the authentic originals of all documents supplied to us as certified, photostatic or faxed copies. In conducting our examination of documents, we have assumed the power, corporate or other, of all parties thereto other than the Issuer to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and the due execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and that, except as set forth in the numbered opining paragraphs below, to the extent such documents purport to constitute agreements, such documents constitute valid and binding obligations of such parties.

     In rendering the opinions expressed in paragraphs 2 through 5 below with respect to the Securities therein referred to, we have assumed that:

     (i) any Certificate of Designation in respect of Preferred Shares and the forms of certificates representing any Common Shares or Preferred Shares will be in conformity with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Issuer and with applicable law;

     (ii) the consideration paid for any Common Shares or Preferred Shares will comply with Section 153(a) or (b) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), the third

     (iv) the form and terms of any Debt Securities, the form and terms of any Guarantees, the form and terms of any Warrants or Units, and the form and terms of any and all Securities or other securities or obligations comprising the same or subject thereto (in the case of the Units and Warrants), the issuance, sale and delivery thereof by the applicable Company, and the incurrence and performance by the applicable Company of its obligations thereunder or in respect thereof (including, without limitation, its obligations under any related Indenture, Warrant Agreement or unit agreement) in accordance with the terms thereof, will be in full compliance with, and will not violate, the certificate of incorporation, articles of incorporation, bylaws, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement or similar instrument of any of the Companies, or any applicable law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree, award, or agreement binding upon any of the Companies, or to which the issuance, sale and delivery of such Securities, or the incurrence and performance of such obligations, may be subject, or violate any applicable public policy, or be subject to any defense in law or equity, and (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) Section 5-501.6.b of the New York General Obligations Law will apply in the case of all such Debt Securities and Guarantees. In addition, we have assumed the receipt by each person to whom or for whose benefit a Security is to be issued (collectively, the “Beneficial Holders”) of a certificate for such Security or the receipt by The Depository Trust Company, acting as agent, on behalf of all Beneficial Holders of the class or series of Securities of which such Security is one, of a global security then evidencing such Securities, and the issuance and sale of and payment for the Securities so acquired, in accordance with the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement approved by the board of directors of each applicable Company, and in accordance with the Registration Statement (including the Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement).
