Looking for info on oil field jobs in Wyoming and Colorado

The woman in my signature can give you all the info you want about the company I'm with.

There are a couple threads which have some good info:

http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...-forum/118320-so-you-want-haul-crude-oil.html

those are the two which pop to mind right away, I'm sure there are more.

 

plenty of work in Wyoming and Colorado...
But most of the companies here require 3 or 4 years experience.

 

What about Stallion?

 

Thanks for asking me about WY and CO. I have heard of some oil operations but nothing that pays like ND. I have a friend working on a rig in WY North of Casper, but he is on his feet all day long and I have no interest in a job like that, but he makes what a haul driver makes. I have also heard of some work near Grand Junction, but nothing specific. Sorry, that's all I have on those states.

 

Research oil and gas plays that will tell you where all the work is expected to be in the next 20 years. Then figure out what you want to do haul crude, water, frac sand, pipe then research all those related companies in that area. I haul frac sand in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas and New Mexico primarily. Have hauled it in Wyoming, North Dakota, Pennsylvania,Montana and West Virgina. If your considering Colorado I'd look at northeastern Colorado unless you want to play in the mountains. Then western Colorado will do. Be warned there are no paved roads to the wells in the mountains for the most part and the grades are often 15% or more so choose wisely.

 

I heard that Sanjel has a position open for a pumping services operator in Riverton, Wy.-$65k/yr, no OT, 80-100 hrs/wk, 15 on/6 off. I talked to an ex-Sanjel hand that said in his case that it worked out to a bit more than $13.90/hr. He said that there is sometimes incentive pay involved as well. Does anyone know if this sounds right? Thanks!

 

Hollywood,what exactly is frac sand? Is it something that is available only in certain areas and how far away is it trucked in from? I'm new to this oilfield lingo and trying to understand the process. Where you a studio driver at one time or is Hollywood a name you acquired ?

 

I make more than that driving a kill truck and I don't work the insane hours that fracking requires, nor do I work hard. Granted, I'm not in Colorado.
