Starting out at Halliburton Cement...

Cementing and fracing both sound pretty good now lol

 

Do you have to live near a yard? When you're on your 14, do you sleep in the truck between jobs?

 

Would you say one job is more labor intensive than the other (cement vs. frac)?

 

Thanks for all the great info. That's true both have their pros and cons. I'm still deciding on which to apply to first once the time comes.

 

I am new to a frac crew and last night we rigged down takes about 5 or more hours. We have around 20 guys and break into groups to rigged diwn. Some do all the hoses and some the iron. The other guys work the crane and lift the really heavy stuff. It is labor intensive but you will get used to it and you only do it about once a week or even once every hitch. My first time rigging down I was so exhausted and felt like giving up lol. Been here 4 weeks now. But on other days is pretty easy work just long hours.

 

how hard did the guy on the crane work? viper

 

Well the 1 hour response kinda puts me off on the cement side. With frac, do you have the same restriction? Great info everyone, Thanks.
