Alberta oilfield driving jobs

The guy prob knew people were doing exactly wat you were doing so he knew to wait there and catch someone.

 

It was panoka county, just by bluffton, and the county road was a dirt/gravel TWP so I dunno what the heck, but looks like he screwed up on the ticket so we will fight it for sure.

 

Also I see on kijiji that Veloca Systems has an ad, they are one of our competitors for ball launching, new company but say six figures is easily attainable, I agree. If their pay structure is anything like ours and they get enough work...
Seriously it's a gravy job and great pay, at least my job at Canadian Wellhead Isolation is. I am doing my wellhead boomtruck course in May and then should be certified journeyman in June.

 

Wellhead boom truck is only 5 day course correct?

I've heard that its only company specific?

 

Yup normally a 5 day course but I am doing a 2 day and can then challenge the test cause I have the hours and year of employment. Not sure about company specific?

 

Well head boom truck ticket is only good when working for well service companies and operating cranes up to 45 ton on well sites. Outside of a well site it is invalid, you would need the true boom truck ticket where you require 1200 hours and a 5 week course at NAIT plus 40 hours of self study before the in school portion.

I am going to be working as an apprentice in May.

 

Yeah I am gonna see if I can, after starting with this wellhead cert, work towards my actual boom truck as I plan on staying with this job I will have the hours and maybe next breakup take the course if it is offered...

 

Gents, I admire your ambition. Plus the employers that recognize your talents and wish to create advancement opportunities.

 

Scratch that, looks like I'm gonna have to wait to start my apprenticeship till mid summer. Bummer.

 

Crappy! Is it hours holding you back or year of employment? Or some other factor that I still need to learn about?
