Congrats man. Here's some new guy wireline advice.

Ask questions if you don't know what your doing, but don't be the guy who won't shut the **** about about how to do this and how to do that. You...

Ability to self motivate

When I was little I dreamed of being rich, didn't care how I got there.

Now work in oilfield.

Getting there.

Make some phone calls mayne!

Anything else? I'm on standby for like 2 more hours.

Offshore and overseas aren't places most people start. Offshore you need training. Overseas entry level stuff is usually locals.

I could see that being possible but a lot of the guys that do hiring are upper level experienced dudes who also might be very insulted by this.

Some drilling company's look for a training program, and the way list on those are huge. It's easier to start out at a **** company then move to the bigger one after 3 months because then you would...

The word around here is that Bakersfield will be picking up soon. No idea what part of cali that is though.

Petroleum engineer, or just working your way up through production. Becoming a Driller or something along those lines. My wireline leads make between 300k and 800k depending on there specialty.

I have an acquaintance who had an engineering degree but couldn't find work. Then he worked a summer on a Drilling rig and got a job soon after. Kinda like proving your not a pussy sort of thing....

Its a good job for sure but there's not a lot of room for advancement. You kinda top out right away.

Its not as hard to get into as you think man. Just gotta be willing to toil in a **** job for 6 months to a year. Then doors will open.

On the job learning for me.

120 k ish and you are 2 weeks on two weeks off.

Rig zone is best for higher skilled people. You could try flint energy they do rig moves and provide guys to run loader, but guys that can run loader are a dime a dozen in the oilfield. School is a...

Drilling rig hand, work over rig hand, or casing hand. With casing there are different branches but the other two are straightforward. All 3 places will pay 75k with big Sky approaching 100k. It's...

I can handle North Dakota cold but Canada cold no thank you. Plus I believe Canada is an oil sand play which is a different type of production than the states. Idk this for a fact but I'd guess it...

White mountain drilling, big Sky well service, or noble casing are all places that have high turnover where you can gain experience and move on to better things


Edit, get your cdl too.
