    Bakken water isn't dead, but the defibrillator is out and charging.

    I took the cue and transferred to Crude.

    Water isn't dead, just slow like everything else.

    Hey newguy76, do you have to commute from Midland or somewhere else, or do they provide company housing for you at Pinnergy?

    They provide free housing. You provide your own food and linens. So far its 1 person per room, but rooms have bunk beds. There is a possibility of sharing a room at some point

    Thank you. I hope you get to keep you own room. That would make a big difference, I would think.

    I just quit hauling sand for 1845. They took a big hit couldn't even bring home 1000 a week anymore. Not worth being gone sleeping in the truck if u ask me so I'm fixing to haul crude better pay and when the drilling stops they'll still be hauling oil for the rest of my life

    Definitely doesn't seem to be dying off in se nm. I just spent the past week in the carlsbad/jal area, and it looked just as busy as it did last July. I'm guessing certain areas just got hit harder than others.

    It depends on how you look at it. How many hundreds of drivers did they have in the area vs how many lost there jobs or quit cuz of the impact. I'm gonna haul crude in Carlsbad this month just waiting on my clearance

    They couldn't build enough pipelines to haul all the crude in Texas even before the boom. It's to extensive. Even if half was polypipe they couldn't build enough storage fast enough to get the amount they need.
