[@NicholasZimmerman-w1v]

Bakken brothers are a hard working reliable team that will get the job done right!

[@GraceEngineering]

We rag pretty hard on water haulers on Bakken Oilfield Fail of the Day Discussion Group but we know how needed good water haulers are.

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@GraceEngineering bakken fail of the day is awesome

[@Topshottachri]

Bakken isn’t dead you gotta be here to find out where to work go to swd look at the trucks that are working and call them.

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@Topshottachri let I can see some people got the game figured out What this guy said ^

[@JordanHenderson-wz1ry]

This guy knows the game

[@Topshottachri]

More videos like this the people need it

[@micaheldred6610]

Super interesting video Josh....thats for making this and sharing. It looks like fun work, especially if you like to be self sufficient and have time to think about things and not surrounded by a million people.... did you go home at all during the week or do you stay in the truck full time one site? What's your food prep routine? Showers, laundry etc?

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@micaheldred6610 thank you sir I stayed in the truck for the duration Food: gas station burgers if you want a healthier option take off the buns Laundry stock up enough for the week Shower at the truck stop Not as bad as it sounds in all honesty trucks pretty comfortable to sleep in

[@damongreer345]

Can you make a video about housing? Where do I live once I come out there?

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@damongreer345 some companies provide housing but a lot of the time you can live in the truck find an apartment or a man camp Call around but that’d be a good video to shoot

[@damongreer345]

@BakkenBrothers OK cool if I can live in the truck.They provide then that's all I need to know. Thanks

[@geoobradovich8905]

I need some bakken merch!

[@BakkenBrothers]

[@a1cxd166]

Morning you’ll need trucks ?

[@TruckerDa415]

You must be idling a lot? I spent $1073.56 on 2300 miles for a weeks Run However, that 11k gross you made was higher than my 9k Gross.. Good shit man and thanks for sharing.

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@TruckerDa415 for sure my man out of the 2-3 hours the load takes we’re idling half the time if not more

[@adventuresofaliftime4989]

Those numbers arent bad but thats less than what we were making back in 08-12. Youd think the money would be better almost 20 years later. Doesnt look lkke much has changed up there.

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@adventuresofaliftime4989 during the boom there was a major deficit and 0 infrastructure During the boom the money was unrealistic

[@landmanhall]

Awesome video! Would it be viable for me, as a 60 year old man, to get my CDL and start working up there? I have over 30 years of delivery driving experience with zero accidents, clean MVR and recent DOT physical. I don't care about holidays a rarely need a day off.

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@landmanhall I started off from a guy in Florida with absolutely 0 experience My first CDL job ever was in water hauling

[@RollingxStone]

What is the maximum amount of hours water/crude haulers can work in the oilfield? is there a oilfield HOS exemption?

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@RollingxStone there aren’t e logs out here

[@Fatbaldguy]

As many as you can handle if you're not on the hard road.

[@adventuresofaliftime4989]

140 an hr was 08 money.

[@Fatbaldguy]

$10k ain't bad. How long to get paid? Net 30?

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@Fatbaldguy yessir net 30

[@Fatbaldguy]

@BakkenBrothers thanks for the info. I appreciate the videos too!

[@410Karee]

How do I sign up tired of boxes let’s get this money !!!

[@Adam-Woods]

Can you guys work with Canadian drivers? I have a truck and my own authority.

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@Adam-Woods yes there are a bunch of Canadians out here

[@BakkenBrothers]

You out here in the Bakken?

[@stealthyelephant8090]

So $140-$150 /hour is to bakken bros. Yer just a gypo for bakken bros. So how much of that is paid to the truck and how much do they keep and are u running there flag or yer own?

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@stealthyelephant8090 we take a 12% broker fee We don’t make people rep our logo

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@stealthyelephant8090 we take a 12% broke fee so 140-150 minus 12% We don’t make people rep our logo on the truck

[@micclay]

I've been training to haul waterr for the last few days in the bakken. Not teying to discourage anymore, but you need to know you're gonna be a loader/unloader/secretary that drives a truck a little bit throughout the day. You're not gonna be driving that much. At least from what I've seen, so far.

[@tommietownsend723]

Hey bro I’d love to get into the business as a driver and I’d like some info on if I could come under your wing or if you knew someone

[@TheIdahoTrucker]

You guys hiring man? I’m out of Idaho, if not Can you help steer me in that direction?

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@TheIdahoTrucker are you an owner operator or company driver

[@MartyStamour-kf3hv]

I like to hire on my truck to your guys's business

Thumbnail is quality

[@kerlyns]

is it hard to do work like this?

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@kerlyns does it look hard?

[@adventuresofaliftime4989]

Lol no it's not hard if you're smart.

[@michellejeffsmith690]

Yeah must be nice....put in 19 applications and not selected. 26 years with an impeccable MVR/psp and ZERO work in the Bakken

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@michellejeffsmith690 applications ain’t enough. We got a video on how to properly get hired on

[@user-FTRU6GJ]

There is a lot of gate keeping in the oilfield. Very hard to get into. You need oilfield experience and already need crude/water hauling experience. 95% of listing won’t take anyone with oilfield experience.

[@BakkenBrothers]

@ we came out here from Florida with 0 experience. Didn’t even know what an alternator was It’s all in how you go at it

[@DaCA5]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@BakkenBrotherswas that years ago? Seen the same thing. I’ve been looking in multiple states and almost all of them won’t take anyone without oilfield experience. Hopefully I will be out there in at the end of the year or maybe next year. I do inedible/food grade tanker and besides some extra valves and checking that gauge inside that room you walked into it’s seems similar and not much more work. We use thermaflow hydraulic pumps

[@BakkenBrothers]

@ you don’t tell them you have 0 experience You tell them you’ve have x amount of time in the bakken however you’d like to ride around with someone to get a refresher since you’ve been over the road for a minute

[@Ken-harris]

Take a different kind of animal to be out there… Money is good but it’s like special ops of trucking

[@BakkenBrothers]

@@Ken-harris it’s definitely not for the weak lol
