Yup. Y'all drill them good and we will keep them producing for years to come...looooong after the rigs are gone.
Let's all hope that the engineers and geologist keep finding the good stuff so we all can keep on keeping on.
The company I work for will never quit poking holes....once you stop doing that you've pretty much given up.
Cheers.Last edited by Skinny; 09-17-2014, 10:18 PM.

I have good connections around home and last time it tanked I just went back to pumping but some aren't so lucky. The big drilling money will always come back but when is always the ??Last edited by bphillips; 09-17-2014, 10:28 PM.

I am starting to see lots of the same really bad habits that left lots of guys in trouble the last time the work died off. I understand the toys and trucks thing and thats all fine and good if you have some good savings accumulated. I would hate to see some of you guys get in a big bind should the work be gone soon. I know many of you may hear "we have 10 years of work around here" because that is a common phrase but the fact is if oil ever drops so will the work. Just because the work is there doesn't mean it's worth going after to all the companies.
I give this reminder because I personally know of a couple guys with 100k+ salaries that have to finance furniture or TVs and even one that makes over 300k that never has a dime in his pocket.
Have fun but be careful fellas.

It's great to see you "younger" folks aware of what can happen and looking ahead. I rode the "high life" for many years and all it takes is ONE loss of income and it can come crashing down with a vengeance. Put as much back as you can, enjoy some "perks" while you can and most of all....if you hate what you are doing, there is NEVER enough $$ or "toys." I'm thankful every day when I get in my PAID for '05 4x4 Avalanche that still looks new...vs the Biggest, Baddest, Loaded up with everything 4x4 I used to have. Oh, not having $800 payments a month is Greattttttttt!!

I have seen many bust in the oil field since 1975. the most recent was in natural gas. Not to many drilling for nat gas @ 4.00. And oil price will come down, in fact the pipe line from Canada when its finally approved, I think will drop drilling for oil because of the large amount coming to the refineries. I got my wish, where please lord one more boom and I promise not to **** it off, has come and I don't think they can hurt me now. And I'm now thinking, will maybe they can Anyway the young guys aree not going to change, driving nice trucks and party hard

Then just flip burgers till the next one comes around... That's my plan lol
