    The same amount of money but not doing frac work. Frac crews get paid a % of the job cost so can make alot of money. Hard work rigging in and can be boring sitting around until your equipment is needed.

    Stay long enough and move up to chem van. No more rigging in iron, only chem hoses.

    I don't like it much neither, but it pays the bills.

    Don't forget health,dental,group life and contributions to RRSP and such. If you have family that stuff can add up.

    Boomtruckin, who you working with?

    We do a lot of 3rd party work for SLB and Halliburton. Pull pumps, chem van, manifold, whatever is needed. No rigging in for us, lot of ### time on lease.
