Alberta oilfield driving jobs

With the drivers license, you can get a position with pretty well anybody, with the firefighting, you could possibly get on with fire boss, a red deer company that fights well fires all over the world. No limits by the sounds of it.

 

Maybe see if you can get anyone interested in hiring you to run a winch truck as well, another one of the better paying driving jobs.

 

The new fracking technology has opened up all this new work.

Here's some more to read

 

Hi nitrogen. As a CNS Field Technician, do you perform your own equipment services? Oil / Filter / Lube, change lights, change tires? I've done this, and I'm prepared to do it again.

Made arrangements with Doug to speak via phone on Monday.

 

total reserves Alberta is ahead but if you eliminate heavy oil Sask has way more conventional oil. natural gas, Alberta and BC are the big players

well we do service the actual unit, but since the tractors are leased we do minimal work on them, and I don't miss it at all. unlike sanjel who expects you to put in a 14 hour day, spend 3-4 more washing it, changing oil, doing repairs, and then show up 7.5 hours after your got to the yard in the first place. more than 1 night i only got 3-4 hours when i worked there.

 

In a word... no.

I believe you can find a different spin on who has more oil every time you turn the page. All I know is there's more oil in weatern Canada for everyone to have a good life for a very long time.

 

You're both missing the point, the Saskatchewan oil boom is a recent development opening up a lot of new opportunities.

 

Nobody is missing anything; the current exploitation of the Bakken formation has been going on for quite a few years. You are right in that there are a considerable number of opportunities in Saskatchewan so prospective workers should be seeking out those opportunities rather than just looking to Alberta.

 

I'm looking at both opportunities as long as it gets me in I will follow find something were I want to live later. Thanks for the info
