Roughnecks at Work in HD - Drilling Rig Pipe Connection

Roughnecks at work smoothly running a kelly drive drilling rig exploring for oil. They're making a connection or "pipe stab" to continue drilling downward. You can see why this job is high risk and requires concentration and skill.

[@heofz]

What's even more impressive is that they don't have to tell each other what's going on. They know exactly whats happening without saying a word. That's a proper team right there :)

I did this for awhile in east Texas. I was a floorhand, worst job I've ever had. Working nights usually 15 hours a day two weeks straight. Working with some of the most back country hicks and felons from the deep swamps and rural parts of the south. Sleeping in bunks with all men 6 to a room. Back breaking work. While I was there we did a rig moves which was taking an entire drilling rig apart piece by piece and moving it to another location a mile a way. Drilling rigs are fucking gigantic and there's a ton to move. I would use a sledge hammer and bang open connections for hours on end. The actual tripping pipe and rolling casing was ok. Makes the time go by faster. I've never felt that level of exhaustion, I would get off, shower and pass out within 5 minutes. Make no doubt, i'm talking shit but these guys work hard as fuck and they are some of the most mechanically inclined people on this earth. It's no joke. It started being a rig move per hitch I just came to a point that there are a lot of better ways to earn a living than spending half month at a time in these hell holes. It's a tough living.

@@cchmlfa Or maybe our society has been brainwashed to be content in serving our capitalist masters without realizing it. Has it ever occured to you that maybe the whole idea of "working hard for hard work's sake because it builds character" is propaganda fed to us from birth by the elite to serve their interests, drilled into us by our schools, our media, our movies? A little too convenient for them, don't you think? To keep us docile and "in our place"? Why SHOULD we have to work hard to survive? Why SHOULD we have to struggle for food, shelter, and medicine? Why SHOULD we have to forfeit our TRUE FREEDOMS -- the freedom to pursue our hobbies, spend time with family and friends, and just live life in peace -- be contingent upon an income that can barely afford us basic necessities? Make no mistake. This isn't to say that hard work isn't admirable. It certainly is, and people like these fine men should be recognized, praised, and, at least in our current system, emulated. But why should things have to stay that way? Why should we have to "work hard" to eat? To give our children proper education? To treat disease? This whole talk of "you have to overcome obstacles to make you a better person" is age-old propaganda intended to make us content in our struggle, to gaslight us and guilt us for questioning the system, to put us down as "lazy" or "entitled" whenever we speak up. Well, I dare say we ARE entitled to food and shelter. We ARE entitled to basic medicine and the highest level of education. It is only humane that we all have these things.

@@kessler682 You see no women yeah, doesnt mean its only limited to men. Its Hars Work. Toxic masculinity is everything that is in the name itself, toxic

[@dennisquealy1803]

Wow! That’s very impressive! I bet it’s even more impressive in person. Wow! Good old fashioned hard work by real men.

[@markjurkovich7814]

Oh to be 35 years younger. That would be an awesome job! My hat is off to those that that do it.

[@LunarDelta]

I bet these guys could beat some fucking ass.

Girls can do ANNIE SUPPORT !!!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!1!!

[@evatrevathan]

You clearly haven't met a real woman or an entire team of real women. We do exist.

[@JoshuaAvery-gp5dm]

There's just certain things women don't need to do to feel equal or empowered, this is one them women don't need to be police officers, fire fighters or even military there's just certain things that only require men to do period!!!

[@CIorox_BIeach]

I can't stand working with other women. People ain't raising their daughters right...

[@Lavinia_Garcia]

Damn these guys are badass, props to the immense hard work they do, I could never, massive respect to these men. When some people complain about men not being able to comunicate, I'll show them this video, the coordination and trust here is and needs to be pretty high

[@mauriciodiaz1310]

This type of work is on another level straight up!!!! Amazing!!!

[@danielengle4089]

These guys know what the hell they are doing! So many ways you could get really fucked up especially the chains, I had a chain break on me and if you are in the wrong place at the wrong time it'll leave a mark!

[@worms1]

gee i hope all the girls working on that rig earn as much as the dudes

[@tvushington6994]

Mad respect to all these men working these jobs 🫡💯

[@cristianalucidi4078]

I done lost the tip of my toe on an oil chain in Wisconsin, was back in work withun 2 weeks, hard work and much respect.

[@Righound4]

Real nice setup you have there! Just add a Kelly spinner and you would have a real Cadillac. I spent almost 20 yrs on jacknive rigs. It's nice to still see some crews take some pride in the iron. A great crew can "make" a rig great but not the other way around. Keep up the good work!

[@alanperdue1447]

My thoughts exactly about Kelly spinner. We had pipe spinner for tripping pipe back in the day but let the tool pusher go to bed and hello spinning chain.

[@FrumpyDucks]

I drink your milkshake!
