    I've also heard of some picking up a few in W TX. We're getting at least 2-3 of those that I know of. Btw, have any of y'all drilled in the Livingston area? Woodbine formation. Holy crap it sux!!! Have to slide 4-6'/hr to hold decent TF.

          My rentals are currently all over the place. One week I'll have all my fishing hands out, the next, none. Last month there was a week that I had tools on 11 different WO rigs, but not any hands. Then, I had one guy out with no tools.

            I've come to love that kind of work. Set it and chill


            Usually can be helped by making a change in motors, bits, or both though. How's it act trying faster?

              you need to drill the woodbine with more weight. speed will just dull the bit out. there are areas of the woodbine that will wear out a heavy set impregnated bit in a few hundred feet. if the geomystics will allow it, getting out of the low gamma count sand and into something dirtier will help the rop.

                Man this is the craziest crap I've ever seen. Started with stab above motor and one on lower end of motor. Took both off and slid better. I suggested a 9 blade bit but comp man said they didn't make a 9 blade in 12.25" bit. Ok, well what about a rock bit. This 6 blade and high torque motor ain't cutting it. 80-50 lb bite wraps you twice to the left! And we're not in the woodbine yet. Supposed to be shale. At 11500' right now. Try 20-30 ROP and it never settles down either. 4-6 is the only way to go. I even tried holding 600 diff and 60 ROP and it's even worse. Slow and steady I guess.

                  Remember fellas that are heading back out. You gotta do everything faster, cheaper, smarter and most importantly safer.

                    I'm praying for $35 a barrel for oil, but hey $25 will work! The country doesn't need to be paying $4 a gallon for fuel.

                            Yep I've laid off 200 out of 250! May not make it through this myself. I just don't understand folks that wish this misfortune on others. $70 barrel in my opinion everyone wins. We produce our own oil, our people have jobs and everyone else in the country can afford their gas!!! Pretty simple in my opinion!

                              I remember when it was 75 before the big jumps. Our leadership was talking about not wanting it to get much higher than that. When it got over 100 they were really worried. Turns out they were correct. 65-80 is a good range for everyone.
