its amazing how the use of multi-lateral drilling has decreased the cost of drilling numerous holes in one area :)))) Very cost-effective and oil companies are able to extract oil from a larger surface area

When I was Drilling in the Permian Basin, TX, some of these companies is what we'd call Fence Jumpinh. They would use Directional Drilling to tap into another zone that is not in the Mineral Rights of the 1st hole.

This is a great Video. This brings back Good memories and BAD! I was working during the BIG Boom in the late 1970s &1980s, went to the Site for a Rig Move, there were 4 Crews, the Pusher comes out to announce that THAT DAY was the LAST day for ALL Drilling to shut down. There was NO warning, they just Shut it ALL DOWN. I don't think any actual Drilling started back up again until mid 90s, and that was up in the MT, SD area, TX a bit, that Boom maybe lasted 4-5 years? Working the Rigs, being a Roughneck, was Very exciting, learned alot, met many a good man, Worked your A** off, also Played Hard.

I've been spoilt most of my working life through building and now farming, I've worked with fantastic blokes who's company was really enjoyable. For a decade from 17 to 27 I worked in nightclubs until one night I walked into a club and I just didn't want to be there. My dream job had become a bad dream. I sold out and went into construction. The best move I ever made ... well except for having two sons. I hope you are doing well.

I remember those days. I broke out in the early 70s started out as sample catcher worked my way up to driller. Did it for about 18 years. Worked in Oklahoma and Texas . Back then you worked every day with no days off. If you had to have off you quit or had someone double for you. Most companies started giving days off in the mid 70s or late 70s.

Been there done that, 7 days a Week. The Shi**y part about all this is I broke out on a Double, meaning a Rig move every few weeks or so. Then got off the Double, went to the Permian Basin worked out of Odessa, started working good sized Triples, working Derricks, then a Driller. I was Drilling for MGF, maybe you heard of them, they filmed Waltz Across Texas on our Rig, the Crew and I were in a very small clip. Then came THE END. 1 day ALL Drilling was shut down, NO warnings, NO more drilling no where. F**ked me up, cause my next step was to Hire on with Shell and get off the Rigs, more of a Company Man 😁. Then I had to go start Pounding Nails, which turned out to be a good Trade, did that up until last year. Between the Oil Fields and Construction my body is SHOT, I Hurt and Stiff to where mobility is getting bad. The WORST part of ALL this is, I'm just as broke as I was when I 1st started in the Fields 😫🤪😀!

@@chrislnflorida5192 : By "pounding Nails", I presume you mean you were a "Chippy" (carpenter). Join the club. Fortunately I liked the Co so much I bought it and became the "Builder" (I think you call us contractors). I also invested a bit and got lucky. I'm now a farmer. One day I'll retire after they bury me. I hope your kids learnt from your experiences.

U NEED to go take a tour of the Rig, you will be amazed. I don't know where your located, but I'd gamble the Rig is a Double, shallow hole, being there only 1 Rig.
