Halfway there. Now we need to put a tariff on incoming foreign oil.

Chances are pretty good that whatever anyone from the industry thinks it will have absolutely 0 to do with the motivations of any govt. debates, but your on the right track, just keep following the money.

Got any turning to the left?

There've been a few sent to the field but they come from together pretty quick.

We're in the staffing side (CDL/Frac contract hands) of this and we just laid our office staff off last Friday for the second time this year. Our last field hands were released three weeks ago. This just keeps getting uglier and uglier.

I left roughnecking 2 years ago while it was still booming and went back to production. Just in time too. The company I'm with is producing 300 million mcf a day and still drilling and bringing more on. We are shooting for 500 million by next summer. Just called out 3 more cactus rigs out of the yard last Friday so that's good news for 66 roughnecks plus support. I've got my fingers crossed it'll creep back up to 75 a bbl and we will have a dozen rigs working again instead of 6.

4 years ago in south tx I could stand in the Derrick tripping pipe and see 16-20 other derricks. Now when I pass H&P in midland I see 40 stacked rigs. Sad.

EOG finally dropped the hammer on my dad today. He's been contract consulting for the last 5 years and was fortunate to hang in there as long as he did.
If yall know of any one needing some troubleshooting or construction work he will be free after the first. He's a TEG and amine genius but with 45 years experience he knows how to fix about anything on the production side. For health insurance reasons he doesn't want to retire till my mom reaches retirement age.

Sorry to hear about your dad jp. We had our shop hand get his walking papers this afternoon too. I pray a turn around is near or we may all be out of the patch.

I was told earlier that Halliburton is going to buy Murphy. And its not going to be good for current Murphy employees.
