Associates LLP as independent auditors for 2007.

                                VOTING SECURITIES

     Voting rights are vested in the holders of common stock of Natural Gas
Services Group, Inc., with each share entitled to one vote. Cumulative voting in
the election of directors is not permitted. Only shareholders of record at the
close of business on May 8, 2007 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the
meeting or any adjournments of the meeting. On May 8, 2007, there were
12,069,166 shares of common stock outstanding.

     We will make a complete list of shareholders eligible to vote at the annual
meeting available for examination during the ten days prior to the annual
meeting. During such time, you may visit our executive offices during ordinary
business hours to examine the shareholder list for any purpose germane to the
annual meeting.


                         ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN AT MEETING

     The annual meeting has been called by the Board of Directors of Natural Gas
Services Group, Inc. to consider and act upon the following matters:

     o    To elect three directors to serve until the annual meeting of
          shareholders to be held in 2010, or until their successors are elected
          and qualify;

     o    To ratify the reappointment of Hein & Associates LLP as independent
          auditors for 2007; and

     o    To transact such other business as may properly come before the
          meeting or at any adjournment(s) of the meeting.

     Quorum. The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock
present at the meeting in person or represented by proxy will constitute a
quorum.

     Vote Required. If a quorum is present, directors are elected by a plurality
of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. This means that the three nominees for
election as directors who receive the greatest number of votes cast in favor of
their election will be elected to the Board of Directors. All other matters are
approved if the votes cast in favor of the matter exceed the votes cast against
the matter.

     Broker Non-Votes. A broker non-vote occurs when a shareholder that owns
shares in "street name" through a nominee (usually a bank or a broker) fails to
provide the nominee with voting instructions, and the nominee does not have
discretionary authority to vote the shares with respect to the matter to be
voted on, or otherwise fails to vote the shares. Broker non-votes are included
in determining whether a quorum is present but are not considered a vote cast.
Broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of a vote on a particular matter.

     Abstentions and Withheld Votes. Abstentions and withheld votes with respect
to a proposal are counted for purposes of establishing a quorum. If a quorum is
present, withheld votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote for
directors. Abstentions are not counted as a vote for or against a matter, but
are considered votes cast on a matter.

     Other Business at the Meeting. We are not aware of (and have not received
any notice with respect to) any business to be transacted at the Annual Meeting
other than as described in this proxy statement. If any other matters properly
come before the Annual Meeting, Stephen C. Taylor and Gene A Strasheim, the
named proxies, will vote the shares represented by proxies on such matters in
accordance with their discretion and best judgment.

                       PROPOSAL 1 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

     Our Board of Directors is divided into three classes, each class to be as
nearly equal in number as possible. At each annual meeting of shareholders,
members of one of the classes, on a rotating basis, are elected for a three-year
term. The authorized number of directors is currently set at eight. Our current
directors are listed below by the year in which their terms expire:



          Terms Expiring at the             Terms Expiring at the            Terms Expiring at the
           2007 Annual Meeting               2008 Annual Meeting              2009 Annual Meeting
      -------------------------------    ----------------------------    -----------------------------
                                                                        
           John W. Chisholm                   Charles G. Curtis                William F. Hughes, Jr.

           Paul D. Hensley                    Gene A. Strasheim                Alan A. Baker

           Richard L. Yadon                   Stephen C. Taylor


                                        2


     The terms of three current directors, Messrs. Chisholm, Hensley and Yadon,
expire at the 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

     Shareholders will be electing three directors at the meeting. The Board is
recommending Mr. Hensley and Mr. Yadon for re-election to the Board of Directors
to serve for a three-year term expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders in
2010. Mr. Hensley and Mr. Yadon were previously elected by the shareholders. The
Board is also recommending Mr. Chisholm for election to the Board of Directors
to serve for a three-year term expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders in
2010. Mr. Chisholm was appointed as a director by the Board on December 19, 2006
to fill a vacancy created by expanding the size of the Board from seven to eight
directors. Under Colorado law, the term of a director who is elected by the
remaining directors to fill a vacancy expires at the next annual meeting of
shareholders. Consequently, Mr. Chisholm's current term expires at the 2007
Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

     The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote the shares
represented by such proxy for the election of the three nominees for director
named above. If, at the time of the meeting, any of these nominees becomes
unavailable for any reason, which is not expected, the persons entitled to vote
the proxy will vote for such substitute nominee or nominees, if any, as they
determine in their sole discretion, or we may reduce the size of the Board.

     Biographical information for each person nominated as a director, and for
each person whose term of office as a director will continue after the 2007
Annual Meeting, is set forth below.

                    THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES

     Natural Gas' Board of Directors held six meetings during the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2006. Each director attended at least 75% of the total number
of Board meetings held while such person was a director. Each director also
attended at least 75% of all of the meetings held by all committees of the Board
of Directors for which he served (during the periods that he served). The Board
of Directors acts from time to time by unanimous written consent in lieu of
holding a meeting. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, the Board of
Directors took action by unanimous written consent two times.

     We typically schedule a Board meeting in conjunction with our annual
meeting of shareholders. Although we do not have a formal policy on the matter,
we expect our directors to attend each annual meeting, absent a valid reason,
such as illness or an unavoidable schedule conflict. Last year, all of the
individuals then serving as directors attended our 2006 annual meeting of
shareholders.

     To assist it in carrying out its duties, the Board has delegated certain
authority to four separately designated standing committees. These committees
are described below.

Audit Committee

     The members of the Audit Committee through June 19, 2006 were Gene A.
Strasheim (Chairman), Charles G. Curtis, William F. Hughes, Jr. and Richard L.
Yadon.

     At the Board of Directors meeting held on June 20, 2006, Messrs. Strasheim
(Chairman), Curtis and Hughes were reappointed to the Audit Committee, and Mr.
Yadon was removed from the Audit Committee.

     The current members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Strasheim
(Chairman), Curtis and Hughes.

     The primary functions of the Audit Committee include:

     o    assisting the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities as
          they relate to our accounting policies, internal controls, financial
          reporting practices and legal and regulatory compliance;

     o    hiring independent auditors;

     o    monitoring the independence and performance of our independent
          auditors;

     o    maintaining, through regularly scheduled meetings, a line of
          communication between the Board, our financial management and
          independent auditors; and

     o    overseeing compliance with our policies for conducting business,
          including ethical business standards.

     The Audit Committee met six times during the last fiscal year.

                                       5


     Our Board of Directors has determined that Gene A. Strasheim is qualified
as an "audit committee financial expert" as that term is defined in the rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     Our common stock is listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange.
Under rules of the American Stock Exchange, the Audit Committee is to be
comprised of three or more directors, each of whom must be "independent". Our
Board has determined that all of the members of the Audit Committee are
independent, including Mr. Strasheim, as defined in the listing standards of the
American Stock Exchange, or "AMEX", and the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

     The Board of Directors has adopted an Audit Committee Charter. A copy of
the charter can be found on our website at www.ngsgi.com.

Compensation Committee

     Through June 19, 2006, the Compensation Committee was comprised of William
F. Hughes, Jr. (Chairman), Charles G. Curtis, Gene A. Strasheim and Richard L.
Yadon. On June 20, 2006, Messrs. Hughes (Chairman) and Yadon were reappointed to
the Compensation Committee, and Messrs. Strasheim and Curtis were removed from
the Compensation Committee. In addition, on June 20, 2006, Alan A. Baker was
appointed to the Compensation Committee. Mr. John W. Chisholm was appointed to
the Compensation Committee on December 19, 2006.

     The current members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Hughes
(Chairman), Baker, Yadon and Chisholm.

     Our Board has determined that all of the members of the Compensation
Committee are independent, as defined in the listing standards of AMEX and the
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     The Compensation Committee assists the Board in overseeing:

     o    the management of our human resources, including compensation and
          benefits programs, and the evaluation of the Chief Executive Officer's
          performance and compensation; and

     o    the evaluation of management.

     The Compensation Committee's policy is to offer the executive officers
competitive compensation packages that will permit us to attract and retain
individuals with superior abilities and to motivate and reward such individuals
in an appropriate fashion in the long-term interests of Natural Gas Services
Group and its shareholders. Currently, executive compensation is comprised of
salary and cash bonuses and awards of long-term incentive opportunities in the
form of stock options under our 1998 Stock Option Plan.

     During the last fiscal year there were seven meetings of the Compensation
Committee.

     A current copy of our Compensation Committee Charter is available on our
website at www.ngsgi.com.

Governance, Personnel Development, and Nominating Committee

     Through June 19, 2006, the Governance, Personnel Development and Nominating
Committee was composed of Charles G. Curtis (Chairman), William F. Hughes, Jr.,
Gene A. Strasheim and Richard L. Yadon.

     At our Board of Directors meeting held on June 20, 2006, this committee was
dissolved and two new committees were created in its place, the Governance and
Personnel Development Committee and the Nominating Committee.

     On June 20, 2006, Messrs. Curtis (Chairman) and Yadon and Alan A. Baker
were appointed to serve on the Governance and Personnel Development Committee.
On December 19, 2006, John W. Chisholm was appointed to serve on the Governance
and Personnel Development Committee. The current members of the Governance and

                                        6


Personnel Development Committee are Messrs. Curtis (Chairman), Yadon, Baker and
Chisholm.


     Messrs. Yadon, Strasheim and Curtis were appointed on June 20, 2006 to
serve on the Nominating Committee, all of whom compose the current members of
the Nominating Committee. Mr. Yadon serves as Chairman of the Nominating
Committee.

     Prior to its dissolution, the functions of the Governance, Personnel
Development, and Nominating Committee included:

     o    identifying individuals qualified to become board members, consistent
          with the criteria approved by the Board;

     o    recommending director nominees and individuals to fill vacant
          positions;

     o    assisting the Board in interpreting the Governance Guideline, the Code
          of Business Conduct and Ethics and any other similar governance
          documents adopted by the Board;

     o    overseeing the evaluation of the Board and its committees;

     o    generally overseeing the governance of the Board; and

     o    overseeing executive development and succession and diversity efforts.

     The functions above are now carried out by the Governance and Personnel
Development Committee and the Nominating Committee. The Governance and Personnel
Development Committee primarily focuses on overseeing the governance of the
Board and its committes and interpreting the Governance Guidelines, the Code of
Business Conduct and Ethics and other governance documents adopted by the Board.
The Nominating Committee concentrates its efforts on identifying potential board
members and recommending director nominees and individuals to fill vacant
positions.

     The Governance, Personnel Development, and Nominating Committee met two
times through June 20, 2006.

     The Governance and Personnel Development Committee and the Nominating
Committee each met two times from June 20, 2006 through December 31, 2006.

     The charter adopted by the Board of Directors for the Governance, Personnel
Development and Nominating Committee remains in place and is the charter under
which the Governance and Personnel Development Committee and the Nominating
Committee are currently operating. A current copy of the charter is available on
our website at www.ngsgi.com. The Governance and Personnel Development Committee
and the Nominating Committee are in the process of preparing charters specific
to each of such Committees. Once completed and adopted, the charters will be
made available through our website.

     Our Board of Directors has determined that each of the Governance and
Personnel Development Committee and Nominating Committee members is
"independent", as defined under the applicable rules and listing standards of
AMEX.

     Our Nominating Committee will consider a director candidate recommended by
a shareholder. A candidate must be highly qualified in terms of business
experience and be both willing and expressly interested in serving on the Board.
A shareholder wishing to recommend a candidate for the Committee's consideration
should forward the candidate's name and information about the candidate's
qualifications to Natural Gas Services Group, Inc., Nominating Committee, 2911
South County Road 1260, Midland, Texas 79706, Attn.: Richard L. Yadon, Chairman.
Submissions must include sufficient biographical information concerning the
recommended individual, including age, employment history for at least the past
five years indicating employer's names and description of the employer's
business, educational background and any other biographical information that
would assist the

                                       7


Committee in determining the qualifications of the individual. The Committee
will consider recommendations received by a date not later than 120 calendar
days before the date our proxy statement was released to shareholders in
connection with the prior year's annual meeting for nomination at that annual
meeting. The Committee will consider nominations received after that date at the
annual meeting subsequent to the next annual meeting.

     The Committee evaluates nominees for directors recommended by shareholders
in the same manner in which it evaluates other nominees for directors. Minimum
qualifications include the factors discussed above.

Director Independence

     Our business, property and affairs are managed by or under the direction of
the Board of Directors. Members of the Board are kept informed of our business
through discussions with Mr. Taylor, our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive
Officer and President, and other officers, by reviewing materials provided to
them and by participating in meetings of the Board and its committees. Four
non-employee directors, Charles G. Curtis, William F. Hughes, Jr., Gene A.
Strasheim and Richard L. Yadon, served on our Board of Directors throughout
fiscal year 2006, and two other non-employee directors, Alan A. Baker and John
W. Chisholm, served as directors for a portion of the year.

     Messrs. Curtis, Hughes, Strasheim, Yadon, Baker and Chisholm have been
determined to meet the definition of an "independent director" under rules of
the American Stock Exchange, the independence standards applicable to us. These
determinations are based primarily on responses of the Directors to questions
regarding employment and compensation history, affiliations and family and other
relationships, comparisons of the independence criteria under the AMEX rules to
the particular circumstances of each Director and on discussions among the
Directors.

     In considering and determining the independence of Mr. Curtis and Mr.
Yadon, the Audit Committee reviewed and took into account their exercise of
warrants as described below.

     In March 2001, we issued to Richard L. Yadon, a Director, a warrant to
purchase 9,365 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per
share, and expiring on December 31, 2006. In April 2002 we issued another
warrant to Mr. Yadon to purchase 5,318 shares of our common stock at an exercise
price of $3.25 per share, and expiring on April 23, 2007. Both of these warrants
were issued to Mr. Yadon as consideration for his guarantee of payment of a
portion of our bank debt. On November 30, 2006, Mr. Yadon exercised all of his
warrants with a cash payment to us in the aggregate amount of approximately
$41,000. The common stock was issued in reliance upon the exemptions from
registration contained in Section 3(a)(9) and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended.

     In February and May 2001, Charles G. Curtis, a Director, purchased from us
in a private placement a warrant to purchase 16,000 shares of our common stock
and a warrant to purchase 24,000 shares. The exercise price of both warrants was
$3.25 per share and the expiration date of the warrants was December 31, 2006.
Utilizing a "cashless exercise" feature in the warrants, Mr. Curtis exercised
the warrants on November 21, 2006 and a total of 30,857 shares of common stock
were issued to him. The common stock was issued in reliance upon the exemptions
from registration contained in Section 3(a)(9) and Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

                                 CODE OF ETHICS

     Our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics,
or "Code", which is posted on our website at www.ngsgi.com. You may also obtain
a copy of our Code by requesting a copy in writing at 2911 SCR 1260, Midland,
Texas 79706 or by calling us at (432) 563-3974.

     Our Code provides general statements of our expectations regarding ethical
standards that we expect our directors, officers and employees, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to adhere to while acting
on our behalf. Among other things, the Code provides that:

     o    we will comply with all laws, rules and regulations;

                                  8


     o    our directors, officers and employees are to avoid conflicts of
          interest and are prohibited from competing with us or personally
          exploiting our corporate opportunities;

     o    our directors, officers and employees are to protect our assets and
          maintain our confidentiality;

     o    we are committed to promoting values of integrity and fair dealing;
          and that

     o    we are committed to accurately maintaining our accounting records
          under generally accepted accounting principles and timely filing our
          periodic reports.

                             EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Introduction and Overview

     The Compensation Committee or, the "Committee," of the Board of Directors
is responsible for determining the types and amounts of compensation we pay to
our executives. The Committee operates under a written charter that you can view
on our website at http://www.ngsgi.com. The Board of Directors has determined
that each member of the Committee meets the independence requirements of the
American Stock Exchange. The Board determines, in its business judgment, whether
a particular Director satisfies the requirements for membership on the Committee
set forth in the Committee's charter. None of the members of the Committee are
current or former employees of Natural Gas Services Group or any of its
subsidiaries.

     The Committee is responsible for formulating and administering our overall
compensation principles and plans. This includes establishing the compensation
paid to our Chief Executive Officer, meeting and consulting with our Chief
Executive Officer to establish the compensation paid to our other executive
officers, counseling our Chief Executive Officer as to different compensation
approaches, administering our stock option plan, monitoring adherence to our
compensation philosophy and conducting an annual, and sometimes more frequent,
review of our compensation programs and philosophy regarding executive
compensation.

     The Committee periodically meets in executive session without members of
management or management directors present and reports to the Board of Directors
on its actions and recommendations.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

     Our compensation philosophy is to provide an executive compensation program
that:

     o    rewards performance and talents necessary to advance our company
          objectives and further the interests of our stockholders;

     o    is fair and reasonable and appropriately applied to each executive
          officer; and

     o    is competitive with compensation programs offered by our competitors.

     The overall objectives of our compensation philosophy are to:

     o    provide a competitive level of current annual income that attracts and
          retains qualified executives at a reasonable cost to us;

     o    retain and motivate executives to accomplish our company goals;

     o    provide long-term incentive compensation opportunities at levels
          appropriate for the respective responsibilities and performance of
          each executive;

     o    align compensation and benefits with our business strategies and
          goals;

     o    encourage the application of a decision making process that takes into
          account both short-term and long-term risks and the sometimes volatile
          nature of our industry; and

     o    align the financial interests of our executives with those of our
          stockholders through the potential grant of equity based rewards.

                                       10


     Our Committee supports these objectives by emphasizing compensation
arrangements that we believe are reasonable and will attract and retain
qualified executives and reward them for their efforts to further our long-term
growth and success. At the same time, we remain cognizant of and aim to balance
our executive compensation arrangements with the interests and concerns of our
stockholders.

     We feel that our compensation philosophies and practices are more fully
understood when viewed in the context of certain specific aspects of our history
as a public company. Our initial public offering occurred in October 2002. Our
market capitalization did not exceed $75.0 million until mid 2006. Given our
small size in our earlier years as a public company, we chose to implement a
relatively simple compensation framework for our executives. This framework
consisted primarily of base salaries, cash bonuses and stock options. We have
currently chosen to continue a relatively simple compensation framework for our
executives and believe that by doing so we are able to establish a higher degree
of understanding and certainty for our executives as well as the investing
public, while at the same time avoiding complex benefit packages and agreements
that can be, in some ways, difficult to understand and require significant time
and cost to properly administer. In the end, we believe our compensation
arrangements provide the desired results: fair and reasonable pay for
achievements beneficial to Natural Gas Services Group and its stockholders.

Assistance Provided to the Committee

     The Committee makes all compensation decisions regarding our executive
officers. Stephen C. Taylor, our Chief Executive Officer, annually reviews the
performance of each of our executive officers (other than the Chief Executive
Officer whose performance is reviewed by the Committee) and presents
recommendations to the Committee with respect to salary and cash bonus
percentage adjustments and stock option grants for our executives (other than
the Chief Executive Officer whose salary, cash bonus percentage adjustments and
stock option grants are determined solely by the Committee). The Committee may
exercise its discretion in modifying any recommendations made by our Chief
Executive Officer.

     The Committee also seeks the input and insight of Mr. Taylor concerning
specific factors that Mr. Taylor believes to be appropriate for the Committee's
consideration and which the Committee may not be aware of, such as extraordinary
efforts or accomplishments of our executive officers. Mr. Taylor also advises
the Committee on general topics such as the morale of our executives.

     Mr. Earl R. Wait, our Vice President - Accounting, assists the Committee in
the compensation process by gathering and organizing data for their review.

Compensation Components

     We base our decisions regarding executive compensation primarily on our
assessment of company performance, and each executive officer's leadership,
performance and individual contributions to our business. The accounting and tax
treatment of different elements of compensation has not to date had a
significant impact on our use of any particular type of compensation. In
reviewing the overall compensation of our officers, we have historically
considered and used a mix of the following components or elements of executive
compensation:

          o    base salary;

          o    cash bonuses under our incentive cash bonus program;

          o    stock option grants;

          o    retirement and other benefits generally available to all of our
               employees; or

          o    limited perquisites.

                                       11


     We do not presently and have not in the past used any of the following
types of executive compensation:

          o    stock awards;

          o    defined benefit pension plans;

          o    tax gross-ups;

          o    employee stock purchase/ownership plans;

          o    supplemental executive retirement plans/benefits; or

          o    deferred compensation plans.

Compensation Evaluation Factors

     We continue, as we have in the past, to rely on the following factors in
evaluating and determining the amount of compensation we pay our executives:

          o    our general knowledge of executive compensation levels in the
               natural gas compression industry;

          o    each executive's individual performance and the overall
               performance of Natural Gas Services Group; and

          o    specific company financial metrics and the application of
               specific weights to such metrics.

The applicability of these factors varies depending on the type of compensation
being evaluated and determined. For instance, we do not rely on weighted company
financial metrics to evaluate and determine base salary levels, but such factor
is the primary means through which we evaluate and determine the amount of the
cash bonuses we award to our executives. Below is a more detailed discussion of
how these factors apply to the different types of compensation we utilize.

Executive Compensation Levels of other Companies in the Natural Gas Compression
and Related Businesses

     Historically, we have not focused on a specific peer group to evaluate and
establish the compensation of our executive officers. We do, however, have some
general knowledge of the executive compensation paid by certain of our
competitors and general industry peers. These competitors include public and
privately held companies in the natural gas compression business, industry
partners and related businesses, such as natural gas well servicing. In order to
maintain a compensation package that is competitive, we have considered, and
continue to consider, the executive compensation paid by these companies in
evaluating and establishing the compensation we pay our executive officers. Our
competitors in the natural gas compression industry that are public companies
are considerably larger than we are, and for this reason, we have not in the
past and do not currently consider the specific amounts of executive
compensation paid by such companies when evaluating or determining our executive
compensation. We do, however, from time to time, consider the types of executive
compensation offered by our competitors that are public companies and the annual
increases or decreases on a percentage basis in such compensation

Individual and Company Performance - Base Salary and Stock Options

     We also evaluate compensation, particularly base salary levels and stock
option awards, through an analysis of each executive officer's individual
performance and the overall performance of Natural Gas Services Group, our goal
being to strengthen the link between what we pay our executives and the
performance of Natural Gas Services Group. Factors we consider in our analysis
include:

                                       12


          o    the individual performance, leadership, business knowledge
               and level of responsibility of our officers;

          o    the particular skill-set and longevity of service of the
               officer;

          o    the effectiveness of the officer in implementing our overall
               strategy;

          o    the general level of competitive compensation packages;

          o    cash flows from operations;

          o    earnings per share;

          o    our market share in the rental of natural gas compression
               units; and

          o    the market value of our common stock.

Specific Company Financial Metrics - Cash Bonuses

     With respect to compensation we pay in the form of cash bonuses, the
Committee sets target performance levels for three specific company financial
metrics. The Committee relies on whether these targets are achieved and the
individual performance of our executive officers to determine whether cash
bonuses are awarded and the amounts of such bonuses. The three financial metrics
the Committee considers are:

          o    total revenues;

          o    EBITDA; and

          o    net income before taxes.

     EBITDA is calculated from our audited consolidated financial statements by
adding to net income, or loss, (1) amortization and depreciation expense, (2)
interest expense and (3) provision for income tax expense.

     We believe that our core executive compensation mix of base salary, cash
bonuses and stock options, while fairly limited, presently provides enough
diversity for us to link executive compensation to our short-term and long-term
objectives. For instance, base salaries and cash bonuses are closely linked to
the short-term objectives of providing reasonable and competitive levels of
current annual income, while stock options are more closely linked to the
long-term objectives of earnings per share and increased market value of our
common stock.

Base Salary

     We provide our executive officers and other employees with base salary to
compensate them for services rendered during the fiscal year. Each year the
Committee receives base salary recommendations from our Chief Executive Officer
for all of our executive officers (other than our Chief Executive Officer whose
base salary is evaluated by the Committee on an annual basis). The Committee
reviews comparative salary data and information gathered by the Committee
relative to certain of our competitors and industry peers to gain some general
knowledge of what our competitors pay their executive officers. The competitors
are certain privately held companies in the natural gas industry that are
comparable in size to us. We do not consider the specific amounts of the
compensation packages offered by our competitors that are public companies
because of the considerable size difference between those companies and us, but
we do from time to time consider the types of compensation offered by such
competitors and the annual increases or decreases on a percentage basis in such
compensation. The Committee determines base salary levels by considering the
comparative salary data and information gathered by the Committee in conjunction
with the factors described under the caption "Individual and Company Performance
- Base Salary and Stock Options" on page 12. We do not give specific weights to
any of the factors the Committee considers in determining base salary levels or
adjustments thereto. Based on our criteria for base salary level determinations,
each executive officer identified below received an increase in annual base
salary for 2006 as follows:

                                       13




                                          
                           Mr. Taylor    -       from $155,000 to $175,000;

                           Mr. Wait      -       from $100,000 to $112,500; and

                           Mr. Hazlett   -       from $105,000 to $115,000.


     The base salaries of our officers for 2006 are reflected in column (c) of
the "Summary Compensation Table" on page 18.

Short-Term Incentives - Incentive Cash Bonus Program

     The Committee has adopted an incentive cash bonus program or, the "IBP,"
that provides guidelines for the calculation of annual non-equity incentive
based compensation in the form of cash bonuses to our executives, subject to
Committee oversight and modification. The bonuses awarded under the IBP are
short-term awards in recognition of the overall performance and efforts made by
our executives during a particular year. Each year, the Committee approves the
group of executives eligible to participate in the IBP and establishes target
award opportunities for such executives, excluding our Chief Executive Officer,
whose employment agreement provides for a target award opportunity of up to 50%
of base salary. Target award opportunities for our executives range from 20% to
50% of base salary.

     In 2006, 90% of an executive officer's IBP award was based on achievement
of company financial objectives relating to:

          o    total revenues;

          o    EBITDA; and

          o    net income before taxes.

     Each of these three components accounts for 30% of the total company
financial objective portion of the IBP. The remaining 10% of an executive
officer's IBP award is based upon individual performance as evaluated by our
Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to our Chief Executive Officer
whose individual performance is evaluated by the Committee).

     Each year, the Committee sets a target level for each component of the
company financial objective portion of the IBP. The payment of awards under the
IBP is based upon whether these target levels are achieved for the year. If we
achieve the target levels for all components of the company financial object
portion of the IBP, an executive with a base salary of $100,000 and a target
award opportunity of 40% will receive a cash bonus of $40,000, assuming the
executive receives the full amount (10%) of the individual performance portion
of the IBP. If we do not achieve the target levels for all of the components,
the target award opportunity for each executive officer is decreased by 30% for
each component in which there is a shortfall. For instance, if we meet all
target levels except the target level for EBITDA, the executive's award
opportunity is decreased by 30%. With respect to the executive described above,
the award opportunity for such executive would be reduced from 40% to 28% (the
target bonus of 40% multiplied by 70%) and the executive would receive a cash
bonus of $28,000, assuming the executive receives the full amount of the
individual performance portion of the IBP.

     In 2006, we met or exceeded all of our targets and each of our executives
received the maximum bonus amount they could be awarded. The cash awards made to
our executive officers under the IBP for 2006 are included in column (g) of the
"Summary Compensation Table" on page 18.

                                       14


Long-Term Incentives - Stock Option Grants

     We consider stock options to be a type of long-term incentive compensation
that motivates our executive officers to work toward our long-term growth and
allows them to participate in the growth and profitability of Natural Gas
Services Group. Stock options align the interests of our executive officers with
our stockholders in that our executive officers will benefit from the options
only to the extent that the value of our common stock increases. The number of
options granted to an executive officer is based on an officer's individual
performance and his current contributions and potential for future contributions
to the overall performance of Natural Gas Services Group.

     All stock options are granted under our 1998 Stock Option Plan, except one
stock option was granted outside of the plan to Stephen C. Taylor, our Chief
Executive Officer, under the terms of his employment agreement. We do not grant
discounted options and exercise prices are not based on a formula. Options
granted under our 1998 Stock Option Plan are "at-the-money." In other words, the
exercise price of the option equals the closing price of the underlying stock on
the actual date of grant.

     On November 21, 2006, the Committee granted stock options to two executive
officers. Mr. Taylor was granted an option to purchase 15,000 shares of common
stock, and Mr. Wait was granted an option to purchase 5,000 shares. The options
have an exercise price of $14.22 per share, the closing price of Natural Gas
Services Group's common stock on the date of grant. The option granted to Mr.
Taylor is exercisable in two equal annual installments commencing on November
21, 2007 and the option granted to Mr. Wait is exercisable in three equal annual
installments commencing on November 21, 2007. The options expire ten years from
the grant date. These option grants are reflected in column (j) of the "Grants
of Plan-Based Awards Table" on page 19.

     The Compensation Committee does not have any specific program or plan with
regard to the timing or dating of option grants, except that it has been the
Committee's practice to grant options within thirty days after the latest
quarterly or annual earnings release by Natural Gas Services Group. The
Committee's practice as to when options are granted has historically been made
at the discretion of the Committee. Generally, option grants to executives and
other employees have been made at the same time. We have not and do not plan to
purposefully time the release of material non-public information for the purpose
of affecting the value of executive compensation.

Other Compensation

     We maintain a 401(k) retirement plan in which our executives and employees
participate. We match executive and employee contributions to our 401(k) plan,
on an equal percentage basis, with cash contributions. The Company matching
portion is equal to one-half of the employee's contribution up to a maximum of
3% of the employee's salary. Our matching amounts for our executive officers are
included in column (i) of the "Summary Compensation Table" on page 18.

     Other than the reductions that can occur with respect to the target award
opportunities of our executives under the IBP, we do not have a written policy
or formula regarding the adjustment, reduction or recovery of awards or payments
if company performance measures are restated or adjusted in a manner that would
reduce the award or payment. However, the Committee does consider compensation
realized or potentially realizable from prior compensation awards in setting new
types and amounts of compensation, the result of such consideration being
varying increases in annual salaries and cash bonuses, with some increases being
smaller than previous years.

Employment Agreements

     We currently have written employment agreements with three of our executive
officers, including Stephen C. Taylor, Paul D. Hensley and James R. Hazlett. We
do not have written employment agreements with any of our other executive
officers. We employed Mr. Taylor in January 2005. Mr. Taylor's employment was
governed by a verbal arrangement until August 2005 when we negotiated and
entered into a written employment agreement with Mr. Taylor. We negotiated and
entered into written employment agreements with Messrs. Hensley and Hazlett in
January 2005 in connection with our acquisition of SCS.

                                       15


     The employment agreements of Messrs. Taylor, Hensley and Hazlett provide
for, among other things, base salary, incentive cash bonuses under the IBP, and
insurance, medical and other benefits generally available to our other
employees. Mr. Taylor's employment agreement also contains change of control and
severance provisions, as referenced under the caption "Change of Control and
Severance Arrangements" on page 22 and more particularly described under the
caption "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control" on page 22.
More information regarding the above-referenced employment agreements is
provided under the heading "Compensation Agreements with Management" on page 26.

Allocation of Amounts and Types of Compensation

     Other than the stock options we grant to our executives from time to time
and the determinations made by the Committee as to specific target award
opportunities under our IBP, the allocation of different amounts and types of
compensation has not been a consideration for us. The Committee has not adopted
a specific policy or target for the allocation between either amounts or types
of compensation. However, since our initial public offering in October 2002, the
compensation we have paid to our executive officers has emphasized the use of
cash rather than non-cash compensation. We have chosen to do this in order to
maintain and continue our practice of having a simplified, but effective and
competitive, compensation package.

Assistance of Compensation Consultants

     Although the Committee has the authority to retain, at the expense of
Natural Gas Services Group, compensation consultants, the Committee has not in
the past sought or relied on an outside compensation consultant to evaluate or
establish the compensation we pay our executives. While the Committee believes
the executive compensation we pay is fair and generally competitive within the
natural gas compression industry, the Committee tends to target pay within
approximately 20% of what it believes to be the industry median. This approach
helps ensure that our executive compensation remains reasonable and lessens the
need for an outside consultant to validate such compensation. Our Committee,
nevertheless, understands the value of an outside compensation consultant, and
in light of our growth over the last three years and the increased level of
competition within the natural gas compression industry for attracting and
retaining talented executives, is considering retaining a compensation
consultant to help the Committee better evaluate our executive compensation.

Change of Control and Severance Arrangements

     Our 1998 Stock Option Plan contains change of control provisions. In
addition, Mr. Taylor's employment agreement contains change of control and
severance provisions. Information regarding these provisions is provided under
the caption "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control" on page
22.

Stock Ownership/Retention Guidelines

     We have not in the past had written guidelines or policy statements that
required our executives to maintain specified levels of stock ownership or
adhere to specified "holding" practices with regard to our common stock.

Perquisites

     General Perquisites

     We provide limited perquisites to our executives. The primary perquisites
are allowing our executives a choice of receiving an automobile allowance or
personal use of a company-provided automobile, and to a lesser extent, the
reimbursement of dues for club memberships. In 2006, we reimbursed club
membership dues to one of our executive officers, William L. Larkin, Vice
President - Sales and Marketing. Mr. Larkin ceased to be employed by Natural Gas
Services Group as of October 31, 2006. Although we provide Mr. Taylor with one
club membership, since his use of the club is limited solely for business
entertainment, we have not considered it to be a perquisite and have not valued
it as such for inclusion in column (i) of the Summary Compensation Table on page
18. We do not currently have any executive officers that are reimbursed for club
membership dues.

     Our executives also participate in the same medical, dental and life
insurance plans as other employees. However, we pay a greater percentage of the
premiums for health insurance for our executives than we do for our other
employees.

     Cash Payment to Chief Executive Officer Upon Exercise of Stock Option

     As part of the negotiations with Mr. Taylor as to his compensation under
his employment agreement and as an inducement to Mr. Taylor to join our
employment, we agreed to make a cash payment to Mr. Taylor upon his exercise of
the stock option granted to him under his employment agreement in an amount
sufficient to place Mr. Taylor in the same after-tax position he would be in if
the income recognized by Mr. Taylor upon his exercise of the stock option were
taxed at the then applicable Federal capital gains tax rate. Mr. Taylor is
responsible for all tax due with respect to this cash payment.

Limit on Deductibility of Certain Compensation

     Provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that restrict the deductibility of
certain compensation over one million dollars per year have not been a factor in
our considerations or recommendations. Section 162(m) of the Code currently
imposes a $1 million limitation on the deductibility of certain compensation
paid to specified executives. Excluded from the limitation is compensation that
is "performance based." For compensation to be performance based, it must meet
certain criteria, including being based on predetermined objective standards
approved by stockholders. The Committee has not taken the requirements of
Section 162(m) into account in designing executive compensation. If the
compensation level of any executive officer approaches $1.0 million for purposes
of Section 162(m), the Committee will assess the implications of Section 162(m)
and determine what action would be appropriate, which may be influenced by
factors other than full tax deductibility.

                          COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

     The Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and
Analysis with management.

     Based on its review and discussions, the Committee recommended to the Board
of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and in our proxy
statement for the 2007 annual meeting of shareholders.

(1)  No amounts are shown in column (c) because there is no minimum bonus amount
     under our Incentive Bonus Program. The amounts shown in column (d) reflect
     the product of the target award opportunity for each executive under our
     Incentive Bonus Program, times the executive's base salary and are based on
     the assumption that all three components of the company financial objective
     portion of the IBP (total revenues, EBITDA and net income before taxes)
     will be met and each executive will receive the full amount of the
     individual performance portion of the IBP. The amounts shown in column (e)
     match the amounts shown in column (d) because there are no circumstances
     under which any executive would be entitled to a cash bonus award under the
     Incentive Bonus Program that exceeds the target amount. These amounts are
     based on each executive's current salary and position.

(2)  All of the awards reflected in column (j) were made under our 1998 Stock
     Option Plan.

Incentive Cash Bonus Program

     Our Incentive Cash Bonus Program or, the "IBP," provides for annual
non-equity incentive based compensation in the form of cash bonuses to our
executive officers. Our Compensation Committee or, the "Committee," administers
and determines from year to year the executives that are eligible to participate
in the IBP. The Committee establishes target award opportunities for the
executives eligible to participate in the plan. These target award opportunities
are expressed as a percentage of an executive's base salary. An executive's
target award opportunity is the maximum cash bonus an executive is eligible to
receive in any one year under the IBP.

     The Committee establishes annual target levels for Natural Gas Services
Group's total revenues, EBITDA and net income before taxes and assigns a weight
of 30% to each of these components. The executive's individual performance is
assigned a weight of 10%. If during the year Natural Gas Services Group achieves
all of the target levels established by the Committee for total revenues, EBITDA
and net income before taxes, and it is determined by the Committee that an
executive is entitled to the full 10% weight assigned to individual performance,
the executive is entitled to receive the maximum cash bonus amount for the
executive for that year. If any one of the target levels is not met or it is
determined that an executive is not entitled to the full 10% weight assigned to
individual performance, the cash bonus award for the executive is reduced
accordingly. More information regarding the IBP and the calculation of awards is
provided under the caption "Short-Term Incentives - Incentive Cash Bonus
Program" on page 14.

1998 Stock Option Plan

     Our 1998 Stock Option Plan provides for the issuance of stock options to
purchase up to 550,000 shares of our common stock. The purpose of this plan is
to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial
responsibility and to provide long-term incentives to employees and consultants
and to promote the long-term growth and success of our business. The plan is
administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. At its
discretion, the Compensation Committee may determine the persons to whom stock
options may be granted and the terms upon which options will be granted. In
addition, the Compensation Committee may interpret the plan and may adopt, amend
and rescind rules and regulations for its administration. Option awards are
granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of our common stock at
the date of grant and generally vest based on three years of continuous service
and have ten-year contractual terms.

     On June 20, 2006, the 1998 Stock Option Plan was amended and approved by
our stockholders. The number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance
under the 1998 Plan was increased from 150,000 to 550,000. The last date that
grants could be made was extended from December 17, 2008 to March 1, 2016. The
exercise price of incentive stock options granted to employees who do not own
more that 10% of our common stock was changed from not less than 140% of the
fair market value per share of our common stock on the date of grant to not less
than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. A
provision allowing the Committee to increase, without stockholder approval, the
number of shares of stock subject to the 1998 Plan from 150,000 shares to
400,000 shares was eliminated. Also eliminated was a provision allowing the
Committee, in its sole discretion, to provide an optionee with the right to
exchange, in a cashless transaction, all or part of a stock option for shares of
our common stock on terms and conditions determined by the Committee.

                                       20


     At March 12, 2007, stock options to purchase a total of 158,000 shares of
our common stock were outstanding under the 1998 Stock Option Plan, which
includes 15,000 shares underlying stock options granted on December 29, 2006 to
our six non-employee Directors under the compensation arrangements described
under the caption "Compensation of Directors" on page 25. As described under the
caption "Compensation Agreements with Management" on page 26, one additional
stock option to purchase 45,000 shares of common stock, which was not granted
under the 1998 Stock Option Plan, and which was granted on August 26, 2005
without stockholder approval, was also outstanding at that same date.

     A total of 360,000 shares of common stock were available at December 31,
2006 for future grants of stock options under the 1998 Stock Option Plan.

(1)  Before leaving our employment, Mr. Rogers held a fully-vested stock option
     to purchase 12,000 shares of our common stock. The expiration date of Mr.
     Rogers' stock option was April 12, 2012; however, under our 1998 Stock
     Option Plan, upon Mr. Rogers' departure from our employment, the stock
     option became subject to an accelerated ninety-day expiration period. This
     accelerated expiration period was February 8, 2007 and Mr. Rogers exercised
     his stock option in full on January 26, 2007.
(2)  Before leaving our employment, Mr. Larkin owned a stock option to purchase
     8,000 shares of our common stock, 4,000 of which had vested. The expiration
     date of Mr. Larkin's stock option was August 26, 2014; however, under 1998
     Our Stock Option Plan, the unvested portion of the stock option (4,000
     shares) immediately expired and the vested portion (4,000 shares) became
     subject to an accelerated ninety-day expiration period. This accelerated
     expiration period was January 29, 2007 and Mr. Larkin exercised his stock
     option with respect to the vested portion on January 26, 2007.

                                       21


Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control

     Our 1998 Stock Option Plan contains "change of control" provisions. These
provisions are designed to provide some assurance that we will be able to rely
upon each executive's services and advice as to the best interests of Natural
Gas Services Group and our stockholders without concern that the executive might
be distracted by the personal uncertainties and risks created by any proposed or
threatened change of control and to promote continuity of our executive team.

     Under our stock option plan, the Committee may adjust the stock options
held by our executives upon the occurrence of a change of control. With this
authority, the Committee may in its discretion elect to accelerate the vesting
of any stock options that were not fully vested and allow for the exercise of
such options as to all shares of stock subject thereto.

     Mr. Taylor and Mr. Wait are our only executive officers that hold stock
options granted under our stock option plan that have not fully vested. Mr.
Taylor holds an option to purchase 15,000 shares of stock, none of which had
vested as of December 31, 2006. Mr. Wait holds two stock options to purchase our
common stock, one covering 15,000 shares and the other covering 5,000 shares. As
of December 31, 2006, Mr. Wait's option to purchase 15,000 shares had fully
vested and none of the shares underlying the option to purchase 5,000 shares had
vested. The stock options held by Mr. Taylor and Mr. Wait and the exercise price
for each of the options are set forth in the "Outstanding Equity Awards at
Fiscal Year-End" table on page 21.

     Mr. Taylor' option to purchase 15,000 shares of stock and Mr. Wait's option
to purchase 5,000 shares, each having an exercise price of $14.22 per share,
could have become fully exercisable on December 31, 2006 assuming a change of
control were to have occurred on that date. In this event, Mr. Taylor would have
had to pay approximately $213,000 and Mr. Wait would have had to pay
approximately $71,000 to purchase the shares. The closing price of our common
stock on December 31, 2006, was $13.90 per share. Accordingly, at December 31,
2006, the aggregate value of the shares covered by Mr. Taylor's and Mr. Wait's
options were approximately $209,000 and $70,000, respectively, and both Mr.
Taylor's and Mr. Wait's options were "out-of-the money." As a result, at
December 31, 2006, and assuming the vesting of the options had been accelerated
by the Compensation Committee, there was no potential for Mr. Taylor or Mr. Wait
to realize any immediate value upon exercise of their respective options at such
date.

Change of Control and Severance Arrangements- Stephen C. Taylor's Employment
Agreement

     As described under "Employment Agreements" on page 15 and under
"Compensation Agreements With Management" on page 26, we have written employment
agreements with three of our executive officers: Stephen C. Taylor, our Chief
Executive Officer, Paul D. Hensley, President of SCS and a Director, and James
R. Hazlett, Vice-President-Technical Services. Mr. Taylor's employment agreement
contains change of control and severance provisions. These provisions were
included in Mr. Taylor's employment agreement as part of our negotiations with
Mr. Taylor as to the terms of his employment and as an inducement for Mr. Taylor
to join Natural Gas Services Group. The change of control and severance
provisions are designed to promote stability and continuity with respect to Mr.
Taylor's employment as our Chief Executive Officer and President. Our employment
agreements with Messrs. Hensley and Hazlett do not contain change of control or
severance provisions.

     Mr. Taylor's employment agreement provides that he is entitled to certain
severance benefits if his employment is terminated as the result of a
"fundamental change" or for any other reason, but excluding the following:

          o    for "cause";

          o    the mental or physical incapacity or inability of Mr. Taylor to
               perform his duties for a period of 120 or more consecutive days
               or for multiple periods totaling 180 or more days during any
               twelve-month period;

          o    the death of Mr. Taylor; or

                                       22


          o    the voluntary retirement or resignation of Mr. Taylor.

     Generally, a "fundamental change" is defined in Mr. Taylor's employment
agreement as the occurrence of any of the following:

          o    the dissolution, merger or consolidation of Natural Gas Services
               Group;

          o    the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Natural Gas
               Services Group;

          o    the recapitalization or any other type of transaction which
               results in 51% or more of the common stock of Natural Gas
               Services Group being changed into, or exchanged for, different
               securities of Natural Gas Services Group, or other securities in
               other entities; or

          o    any change in the duties, functions, responsibilities or
               authority of Mr. Taylor or any decrease in his base salary.

The severance benefits provided to Mr. Taylor upon the occurrence of a
fundamental change include:

          o    a single lump sum cash payment equal to 200% of his base salary;

          o    immediate vesting of all unvested stock options;

          o    continued health care and insurance benefits and premium payments
               for a period of 18 months from the date of termination;

          o    bonuses or individual incentive compensation not yet paid but
               earned prior to the year of termination;

          o    bonuses or individual incentive compensation earned during the
               fiscal year, prorated to reflect the date of termination; and

          o    immediate vesting of 100% of all other compensation plans or
               bonus or incentive plans that Mr. Taylor contributed to at the
               date of termination, except to the extent covered by the benefits
               listed above.

     In connection with this employment agreement, Mr. Taylor was granted a
stock option to purchase 45,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price
of $9.22 per share. Unlike his employment agreement, the stock option agreement
provides that upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (without the
termination of Mr. Taylor) or the termination of Mr. Taylor as a result of his
incapacity or inability to perform his duties, the voluntary retirement or
resignation of Mr. Taylor, or the death of Mr. Taylor, the stock option vests in
full on the date immediately prior to the effective date of the occurrence of
any of these events. These provisions were negotiated by Mr. Taylor and us and
were included in Mr. Taylor's compensation package as an additional inducement
for him to join our employment.

                                       23


     The table below shows the potential payments to Mr. Taylor under the change
of control and severance provisions contained in his employment agreement and
the stock option agreement entered into in connection with his employment
agreement. The potential payments are based on Mr. Taylor's salary level and
compensation package as of December 31, 2006, and the assumption that the change
of control or severance event occurred on December 31, 2006.

Compensation of Directors

     We use a combination of cash and equity-based incentive compensation to
attract and retain qualified candidates to serve on our Board of Directors. In
setting compensation for our Directors, we consider the substantial amount of
time that Directors expend in fulfilling their duties to Natural Gas Services
Group and our shareholders, as well as the skill-sets required to fulfill these
duties.

     The following table discloses the cash, equity awards and other
compensation earned, paid or awarded, as the case may be, to each of our
non-employee Directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


(1)  Mr. Strasheim served as the Chairman of the Audit Committee in 2006, and as
     a result, he received an additional cash fee of $1,250 per quarter.
(2)  Effective December 19, 2006, the Board of Directors voted to increase the
     number of Directors constituting our Board of Directors from seven to eight
     and appointed Mr. Chisholm to fill the vacancy created by the increase in
     the number of Directors.
(3)  On December 29, 2006, each of our non-employee Directors was granted a
     stock option to purchase 2,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price
     of $13.90 per share, the closing price of our common stock on December 29,
     2006. Initially, the stock options were exercisable for a term of ten years
     from the date of grant. On January 15, 2007, the Compensation Committee
     unanimously consented to an amendment to the stock options, making the
     stock options exercisable for a term of ten years from January 1, 2007,
     rather than from the date of grant.
(4)  The amounts set forth in column (d) represent the dollar amounts we
     recognized for financial statement reporting purposes for 2006 in
     accordance with FAS 123R with respect to the stock options granted to our
     non-employee Directors. The grant date fair value, as calculated in
     accordance with FAS 123R, for the stock options granted to our non-employee
     Directors in 2006 was $38,000 for each option.

     Cash Compensation Paid to Directors

     We pay our non-employee Directors a quarterly cash fee for their attendance
at each meeting at our Board of Directors. Until July 1, 2006, the quarterly
cash fee payable to each of our non-employee Directors was $2,500 per quarter.
On June 21, 2006, our Board of Directors approved an increase in the cash fees
payable to our non-employee Directors. Effective July 1, 2006, the quarterly
cash fees payable to our non-employee Directors were increased from $2,500 to
$3,750 per quarter.

                                       25

     In addition, the Chairman of the Audit Committee is entitled to an
additional quarterly cash fee in the amount of $1,250.

     Equity Based Compensation Paid to Directors

     Each non-employee Director is entitled to receive an annual stock option
covering 2,500 shares of our common stock for their services as a Director. The
options granted to our non-employee Directors are granted under our 1998 Stock
Option Plan. The options typically vest immediately and are exercisable for a
term of 10 years from the date of grant, subject to earlier termination pursuant
to the terms of the standard non-statutory stock option agreement under our 1998
Stock Option Plan. The options issued to our non-employee Directors have an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of
grant.

     Directors who are employees of Natural Gas Services Group do not receive
any compensation for their services as Directors.

     Other

     All Directors are reimbursed for their expenses incurred in connection
with attending meetings.

     Natural Gas Services Group provides liability insurance for its directors
and officers. The cost of this coverage for 2006 was approximately $129,000.

     We do not offer non-employee Directors travel accident insurance, life
insurance or a pension or retirement plan.

Compensation Agreements with Management

     On August 24, 2005, we entered into a three year employment agreement with
Stephen C. Taylor to serve as our President and Chief Executive Officer. The
employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of $155,000; an annual
bonus of up to 50% of Mr. Taylor's annual base salary; four weeks of vacation
each year; a vehicle allowance; moving expense reimbursement of up to $20,000;
reimbursement for three monthly mortgage payments made by Mr. Taylor for his
prior residence in Houston, Texas; and standard medical and other benefits
provided to all of our employees. The agreement contains provisions restricting
the use of confidential information, requiring that business opportunities and
intellectual property developed by Mr. Taylor become our property; and
prohibiting Mr. Taylor from competing with us during his employment and for the
two years following the date he ceases to be employed by us within the areas
consisting of Midland and Ector Counties, Texas, Tulsa County, Oklahoma and all
adjacent counties. The agreement is subject to termination upon certain
"fundamental changes;" the death or mental or physical incapacity or inability
of Mr. Taylor; the voluntary resignation or retirement of Mr. Taylor; or the
termination of Mr. Taylor's employment for "cause", within the meaning of the
agreement. If Mr. Taylor's employment is terminated as the result of a
fundamental change or other than for cause, he is entitled to receive a single
lump sum cash payment equal to 200% of his base salary. As an inducement to
obtain Mr. Taylor's services, we also agreed to grant to Mr. Taylor a stock
option to purchase 45,000 shares of common stock. We granted the option to Mr.
Taylor, without stockholder approval, on August 24, 2005. The option is
exercisable in three equal annual installments, commencing on January 13, 2006.
The exercise price of the options is $9.22, the fair market value of our common
stock on January 13, 2005, the date we initially hired Mr. Taylor. The option
expires ten years from the date of grant. Mr. Taylor's base salary increased to
$210,000 on January 15, 2007.

     When we acquired SCS on January 3, 2005, Paul D. Hensley, one of the former
stockholders of SCS, entered into a three year employment agreement with SCS to
serve as the President of SCS. Mr. Hensley is also currently a director of SCS
and a Director of Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. The employment agreement
provides for an initial annual base salary in the amount of $126,700 and
participation by Mr. Hensley in our employee benefit plans as in effect from
time to time. The agreement also contains provisions restricting the use of
confidential information; requiring that business opportunities and intellectual
property developed by Mr. Hensley become the property of SCS; and prohibiting
Mr. Hensley from competing with us within an area consisting of Tulsa County,
Oklahoma and all adjacent counties. The agreement may be terminated by us for
"cause", within the meaning of the agreement, and automatically terminates upon
the occurrence of any "fundamental change" with respect to SCS or

                                       26

Natural Gas Services Group. The agreement also automatically terminates upon the
death, voluntary resignation or retirement of Mr. Hensley or the inability of
Mr. Hensley to perform his duties for a consecutive period of 120 days or a
non-consecutive period of 180 days during any twelve month period.

     On January 3, 2005, James R. Hazlett, one of the former stockholders of
SCS, also entered into a three year employment agreement with SCS to continue in
his position as a Vice President of SCS. In June 2005, Mr. Hazlett also became
Vice President-Technical Services of Natural Gas Services Group. The employment
agreement provides for an initial annual base salary in the amount of $105,000
and participation by Mr. Hazlett in our employee benefit plans. The agreement
contains provisions restricting the use of confidential information; requiring
that business opportunities and intellectual property developed by Mr. Hazlett
becomes the property of SCS; and prohibiting Mr. Hazlett from competing with us
within an area consisting of Tulsa County, Oklahoma and all adjacent counties.
The agreement may be terminated by us for "cause", within the meaning of the
agreement, and automatically terminates upon the occurrence of any "fundamental
change" with respect to SCS or Natural Gas Services Group. The agreement also
automatically terminates upon the death, voluntary resignation or retirement of
Mr. Hazlett or the inability of Mr. Hazlett to perform his duties for a
consecutive period of 120 days or a non-consecutive period of 180 days during
any twelve month period. Mr. Hazlett's base salary increased to $115,000 on
December 1, 2006.

Limitations on Directors' and Officers' Liability

     Our Articles of Incorporation provide our officers and directors with
certain limitations on liability to us or any of our stockholders for damages
for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer involving certain acts or
omissions of any such director or officer.

     This limitation on liability may have the effect of reducing the likelihood
of derivative litigation against directors and officers and may discourage or
deter shareholders or management from bringing a lawsuit against directors and
officers for breach of their duty of care even though such an action, if
successful, might otherwise have benefited our stockholders and us.

     Our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws provide certain indemnification
privileges to our directors, employees, agents and officers against liabilities
incurred in legal proceedings. Also, our directors, employees, agents or
officers who are successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any
proceeding to which he or she was a party, are entitled to receive
indemnification against expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in
connection with the proceeding.

     We are not aware of any pending litigation or proceeding involving any of
our directors, officers, employees or agents as to which indemnification is
being or may be sought, and we are not aware of any other pending or threatened
litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any of our
directors, officers, employees or agents.

     Even though we maintain directors and officers' liability insurance, the
indemnification provisions contained in the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws
of Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. remain in place.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Related Person Transactions

     In October 2004, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Screw
Compression Systems, Inc. or "SCS", and the three stockholders of SCS, Paul D.
Hensley, James R. Hazlett and Tony Vohjesus. Under this agreement, we purchased
all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of SCS from Messrs. Hensley,
Hazlett and Vohjesus. Mr. Hensley is currently the president of SCS and a
Director of Natural Gas Services Group. Mr. Hazlett became Vice President -
Technical Services of Natural Gas Services Group in June 2005 and also continues
to serve as a vice President of SCS. Mr. Vohjesus remains employed by SCS as a
vice president. The acquisition was

                                       27


completed on January 3, 2005 and SCS is now operated as a wholly owned
subsidiary of Natural Gas Services Group.

     Under terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, we appointed Mr. Hensley as a
Director of Natural Gas in January, 2005 to fill a vacancy existing on its Board
of Directors, to hold office until the 2005 annual meeting of shareholders. Mr.
Hensley was elected as a Director at the annual meeting of shareholders held in
June 2005.

     Based on Mr. Hensley's pro rata ownership of SCS, he received $5.6 million
in cash; 426,829 shares of Natural Gas Services Group common stock; and a
promissory note issued by Natural Gas Services Group in the principal amount of
$2.1 million, bearing interest at the rate of 4.00% per annum, maturing January
3, 2008 and secured by a letter of credit in the initial aggregate face amount
of $1.4 million. Mr. Hazlett received $800,000 in cash; 60,976 shares of Natural
Gas Services Group common stock; and a promissory note in the principal amount
of $300,000, bearing interest at the rate of 4.00% per annum, maturing January
3, 2008 and secured by a letter of credit in the initial aggregate face amount
of $200,000. Mr. Vohjesus received $1.6 million in cash; 121,951 shares of
Natural Gas Services Group common stock; and a promissory note in the principal
amount of $600,000, bearing interest at the rate of 4.00% per annum, maturing
January 3, 2008 and secured by a letter of credit in the initial aggregate face
amount of $400,000. The promissory notes are payable in three equal annual
installments, with the first installment due and payable on January 3, 2006.
Subject to the consent of the holder of each respective note, principal payments
may be made by Natural Gas Services Group in shares of common stock valued at
the average daily closing prices of the common stock on the American Stock
Exchange for the twenty consecutive trading days commencing thirty days before
the due date of the principal payment, or by combination of cash and shares of
common stock. On January 3, 2006, Mr. Hensley received $700,000 in principal and
$84,000 in interest; Mr. Hazlett received $100,000 in principal and $12,000 in
interest; and Mr. Vohjesus received $200,000 in principal and $24,000 in
interest. On January 3, 2007, Mr. Hensley received $700,000 in principal and
$56,000 in interest; Mr. Hazlett received $100,000 in principal and $8,000 in
interest; and Mr. Vohjesus received $200,000 in principal and $16,000 in
interest.

     Excluding accrued and unpaid interest, at March 12, 2007, we were indebted
to Mr. Hensley in the aggregate principal amount of $700,000, which is secured
by a letter of credit in the amount of $700,000; we were indebted to Mr. Hazlett
in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000, which is secured by a letter of
credit in the amount of $100,000; and we were indebted to Mr. Vohjesus in the
aggregate principal amount of $200,000, which is secured by a letter of credit
in the amount of $200,000.

     Under terms of a Stockholders' Agreement entered into as required by the
Stock Purchase Agreement, for a period of two years following the closing, each
of Messrs. Hensley, Hazlett and Vohjesus had the right, subject to certain
limitations, to include or "piggyback" the shares of common stock he received in
the transaction in any registration statement we filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Stockholders' Agreement also provides that Messrs.
Hensley, Hazlett and Vohjesus will not for a period of three years acquire or
agree, offer, seek or propose to acquire beneficial ownership of any assets or
businesses or any additional securities issued by us, or any rights or options
to acquire such ownership; contest any election of directors by the stockholders
of Natural Gas Services Group; or induce or attempt to induce any other person
to initiate any stockholder proposal or a tender offer for any of our voting
securities; or enter into any discussions, negotiations, arrangements or
understandings with any third party with respect to any of the foregoing.

Procedures for Reviewing Certain Transactions

     On March 7, 2007, we adopted a written policy for the review, approval or
ratification of related party transactions. All of our officers, directors and
employees are subject to the policy. Under this policy, the Audit Committee will
review all related party transactions for potential conflict of interest
situations. Generally, our policy defines a "related party transaction" as a
transaction in which we are a participant and in which a related party has an
interest. A "related party" is:

     o    a director, officer or employee of Natural Gas Services or a nominee
          to become a director;

     o    an owner of more than 5% of our outstanding common stock;

                                       28


     o    certain family members of any of the above persons; and

     o    any entity in which any of the above persons is employed or is a
          partner or principal or in which such person has a 5% or greater
          ownership interest.

     Approval Procedures

     Before entering into a related party transaction, the related party or the
department within Natural Gas Services responsible for the potential transaction
must notify the Chief Executive Officer or the Audit Committee of the facts and
circumstances of the proposed transaction. If the amount involved is equal to or
less than $100,000, the proposed transaction will be submitted to the Chief
Executive Officer. If the amount involved exceeds $100,000, the proposed
transaction will be submitted to the Audit Committee. Matters to be submitted
will include:

     o    the related party's relationship to Natural Gas Services and interest
          in the transaction;

     o    the material terms of the proposed transaction;

     o    the benefits to Natural Gas Services of the proposed transaction;

     o    the availability of other sources of comparable properties or
          services; and

     o    whether the proposed transaction is on terms comparable to terms
          available to an unrelated third party or to employees generally.

     The Chief Executive Officer or the Audit Committee, as applicable, will
then consider all of the relevant facts and circumstances available, including
the matters described above and, if applicable, the impact on a director's
independence. Neither the Chief Executive Officer nor any member of the Audit
Committee is permitted to participate in any review, consideration or approval
of any related party transaction if such person or any of his or her immediate
family members is the related party. After review, the Chief Executive Officer
or the Audit Committee, as applicable, may approve, modify or disapprove the
proposed transaction. Only those related party transactions that are in, or are
not inconsistent with, the best interests of Natural Gas Services and its
stockholders will be approved.

     Ratification Procedures

     If an officer or director of Natural Gas Services becomes aware of a
related party transaction that has not been previously approved or ratified by
the Chief Executive Officer or the Audit Committee then, if the transaction is
pending or ongoing, the transaction must be submitted, based on the amount
involved, to either the Chief Executive Officer or the Audit Committee and the
Chief Executive Officer or the Audit Committee will consider the matters
described above. Based on the conclusions reached, the Chief Executive Officer
or the Audit Committee, as applicable, will evaluate all options, including
ratification, amendment or termination of the related party transaction. If the
transaction is completed, the Chief Executive Officer or the Audit Committee
will evaluate the transaction, taking into account the same factors as described
above, to determine if rescission of the transaction or any disciplinary action
is appropriate, and will request that we evaluate our controls and procedures to
determine the reason the transaction was not submitted to the Chief Executive
Officer or the Audit Committee for prior approval and whether any changes to the
procedures are recommended.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires
our directors and officers to file periodic reports of beneficial ownership with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. These reports show the directors' and
officers' ownership, and the changes in ownership, of common stock and other
equity securities of Natural Gas Services Group.

     Based solely on a review of the Forms 3, 4 and 5 and amendments thereto
furnished to us for 2006, certain of our directors and officers did not file on
a timely basis reports of transactions in our equity securities required by
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These transactions and
related reports are described in the following paragraphs.

     On December 29, 2006, a stock option to purchase 2,500 shares of our common
stock was granted to each of our six non-employee directors, including Richard
L. Yadon, Charles G. Curtis, William F. Hughes, Jr., Gene A. Strasheim, Alan A.

                          REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

     Our Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the integrity of Natural
Gas' financial statements; financial reporting processes; compliance with legal
and regulatory requirements; the independent auditor's qualifications and
independence; and the performance of Natural Gas' internal accounting functions
and independent auditors.

         Our independent accountants are responsible for performing an
independent audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and
issuing an independent accountants' report on such financial statements. The
Audit Committee reviews with management our consolidated financial statements;
reviews with the independent accountants their independent accountants' report;
and reviews the activities of the independent accountants. The Audit Committee
selects our independent accountants each year. The Audit Committee also
considers the adequacy of our internal controls and accounting policies. The
chairman and members of the Audit Committee are all independent directors of our
Board of Directors within the meaning of Section 121(A) of the listing standards
of the American Stock Exchange.

         The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial
statements with management of Natural Gas Services Group. The Audit Committee
has discussed with our independent auditors the matters required to be discussed
by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communications with Audit
Committees), as amended by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 90 (Audit
Committee Communications). In addition, the Audit Committee has received the
written disclosures and the letter from our independent accountants required by
Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit
Committees), and has discussed with the independent accountants matters
pertaining to their independence. Based upon the reviews and discussions
referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors
that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for 2006 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit
Committee and Board of Directors has also selected Hein & Associates LLP as our
independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.


                                  Respectfully submitted by the Audit Committee,

                                  Gene A. Strasheim, Chairman
                                  Charles G. Curtis
                                  William F. Hughes, Jr.

                                       33



       PROPOSAL 2 - RATIFICATION OF REAPPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

     The Audit Committee has reappointed the firm of Hein & Associates LLP as
independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. If the
shareholders do not ratify this appointment, the Audit Committee may consider
other independent public accountants or continue the appointment of Hein &
Associates LLP. Shareholder ratification of the appointment is not required
under the laws of the State of Colorado, but the Board believes it is important
to allow the shareholders to vote on this proposal.

     Representatives of Hein & Associates LLP are expected to be present at the
Annual Meeting of Shareholders and will have an opportunity to make a statement
at the annual meeting if they desire to do so. It is expected that such
representatives will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

     The Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders vote "for" the
ratification of the reappointment of Hein & Associates LLP as Natural Gas'
independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.

Principal Accountant Fees

     Our principal accountant for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and
2005 was Hein & Associates LLP.

     Audit Fees

     The aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by Hein &
Associates LLP for the audit of our financial statements for our fiscal years
ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the review of the financial statements on
Forms 10-Q and 10-QSB, respectively, for the fiscal quarters in such fiscal
years were approximately $265,000 and $177,000, respectively. These fees also
include update audit procedures performed by Hein & Associates LLP for the
issuance of consents for the inclusion of audit opinions in various registration
statements we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission during these
years and consultation regarding Sarbanes-Oxley internal controls
implementation.

     Audit Related Fees

     The aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services by Hein &
Associates LLP during our fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were
approximately $50,000 and $155,000, respectively. These fees were mainly related
to the audits for the acquisition of SCS, and procedures performed in connection
with a registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

     Tax Fees

     We were not billed by Hein & Associates LLP for any tax services during the
year ended December 31, 2005 or December 31, 2006.

     All Other Fees

     No other fees were billed by Hein & Associates LLP during our fiscal years
ended December 31, 2005 and 2006.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

     As of the date of this proxy statement, our Audit Committee had not
established general pre-approval policies and procedures for the engagement of
our principal accountant to render audit or non-audit services. However, in
accordance with Section 10A(i) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and because we do not have a general pre-approval policy, our Audit
Committee, as a whole, specifically pre-approves each audit or non-audit service
before our accountant is engaged to provide those services.

                                       34


     Certain rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission provide that an
auditor is not independent of an audit client if the services it provides to the
client are not appropriately approved, subject, however, to a de minimus
exception contained in the rules. The Audit Committee pre-approved all services
provided by Hein & Associates LLP in 2006 and the de minimus exception was not
used.


                              SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

     Under SEC Rule 14a-8, if a shareholder wants us to include a proposal in
our proxy statement and form of proxy for presentation at our 2008 annual
meeting of shareholders, the proposal must be received by us at our principal
executive offices at 2911 South County Road 1260, Midland, Texas 79706 by
January 18, 2008, unless the date of our 2008 annual meeting of shareholders is
more than 30 days from the anniversary date of our 2007 Annual Meeting of
Shareholders, in which case the deadline is a reasonable time before we print
and mail our proxy materials for the 2008 annual meeting of shareholders. The
proposal should be sent to the attention of the Secretary of Natural Gas
Services Group.

     The SEC also sets forth procedures under which shareholders may make
proposals outside of the process described above in order for a shareholder to
introduce an item of business at an annual meeting of shareholders. A proposal
may not be presented at the 2008 annual meeting and no persons may be nominated
for election to the Board at that meeting unless we receive notice of the
proposal or nomination no later than April 3, 2008. Your notice should be
addressed to President, Natural Gas Services Group, Inc., 2911 South County Road
1260, Midland, Texas 79706. Your notice must comply with the requirements set
forth in our bylaws, a copy of which may be obtained from the Secretary of
Natural Gas Services Group.

     In order to curtail controversy as to the date on which a proposal was
received by us, it is suggested that proponents submit their proposals by
certified mail-return receipt requested. Such proposals must also meet the other
requirements established by the SEC for shareholder proposals.


             SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     Because of Natural Gas' small size, to date we have not developed formal
processes by which shareholders may communicate directly with directors.
Instead, we believe that our informal process permitting communications to be
sent to the Board of Directors either generally or in care of a corporate
officer, has served the shareholders' needs. Until formal procedures are
developed and posted on our website (www.ngsgi.com), any communication to the
Board of Directors may be mailed to the Board, in care of the President of
Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. at 2911 South County Road 1260, Midland, Texas
79706. Shareholders should clearly note on the mailing envelope that the letter
is a "Shareholder-Board Communication." All such communications should identify
the author as a shareholder and clearly state whether the intended recipients
are all members of the Board of Directors or just certain specified individual
directors. The Secretary of Natural Gas Services Group will make copies of all
such communications and circulate them to the appropriate director or directors.


                             SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

     The cost of soliciting proxies, including the cost of preparing, assembling
and mailing this proxy material to shareholders, will be borne by Natural Gas
Services Group. In addition to soliciting proxies by mail, Natural Gas Services
Group and its directors, officers and regular employees may also solicit proxies
personally, by telephone or by other appropriate means. No additional
compensation will be paid to directors, officers or other regular employees for
such services. Banks, brokerage houses, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries
will be requested to forward the proxy soliciting material to the beneficial
owners of shares of Natural Gas Services Group held of record by such persons
and Natural Gas Services Group will reimburse them for their charges and
expenses in this connection.

                                  OTHER MATTERS

     Our Board of Directors does not know of any matters to be presented at
the meeting other than the matters set forth herein. If any other business
should come before the meeting, the person's named in the enclosed proxy card
will vote such proxy according to their judgment on such matters.


     You may obtain our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2006 without charge upon written request to Stephen C.
Taylor, President, at Natural Gas Services Group, Inc., 2911 South County Road
1260, Midland, Texas 79706. In addition, the exhibits to the Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 may be obtained by any
shareholder upon written request to Mr. Taylor.
