How many guys work in the oilfield??
 
Wondering how many oilfield hands are on here???

LittleRob 05-15-2009 08:22 PM

Mainly because I like to fish during the week and not everybody gets 7 to 14 to 28 days off, like oilfield hands do and i'm always looking for a reason to take my boat out, my weekends are for the kids during school.

Big_Country 05-15-2009 08:31 PM

Im in the same boat ...Rob. I try to take my kids as much as I can... Kids that hunt and fish dont steal and deal....

LittleRob 05-15-2009 08:37 PM

I agree whole heartedly I learned something as a child fishing with my grandfather how to appreciate the outdoors, isn't that the best place to relax, watch the kids get excited when the cork go under or the rod tip bends. Great now I'm missing my kids even more.

There are alot of different jobs in the oilfield I mean if you leave your family for days at a time to go work in the oilfield is what I'm getting at, and you you sleep most of the time so you fit right in.

I am currently fishing commercially. I was laid off at the beginning of April and have not had any calls on the resumes' I have sent out.

Hey Trent,
I work for Chevron Production, and it's time to go home, I need some fish scales, slime, and guts. I haven't touched my boat or fishing poles in 2 hitches. My wife has her version of honey do's, called you better and my boys have T-Ball, Soccer, and Sleep overs, so I've been bowed up lately.
Enjoy the sight it's addicting.

Big_Country 05-17-2009 03:00 PM

Yeah Luke is still here.. he's on the B crew at home right now... H is sanded up so bad it ain't funny!!! We're waiting on engineers before they do any work on it. did you now Craig Aaron?

Don't know Craig.

When I was there "H" was the king of the field. If I remember right we were producing about 50 million, but I may be wrong that was a long time ago.



Warren

Big_Country 05-17-2009 03:18 PM

Nope your right on the money!!! Those were some beast of a wells.... it sucked when it went down cuz those living quaters were the best place to nap on theose hot days,,,lol

Marshrat 05-17-2009 03:22 PM

When I was there, we lived on "H". It was nice to be away from the rat race at "A".

LittleRob 05-18-2009 05:37 PM

I'm glad I'm not the only Oil Field trash here, I hope I don't affend anyone with that, I've been offshore for 14yrs, I've work for them all, Island,Grasso,PMI,Greystar,C&D, and ended up going to work for Chevron. The best thing and the worste thing about working out here is leaving home, but on the flip side I get the time off, I spend most of it with my kids and wife, but I do take time for me. I go in Wed. 20...... So if anyone wants to fish let me know I live in Jennings.

What BHP rig you on. I worked extensively on a BHP platform that was built at Gulf Island in Houma. I think it is called the NEptune and if I am not mistaken it is a Floater.
