oilfield laying off

Tracy, can you help a guy out??? I just got a call to come back to the "Odessa" hot spot to drive for "J & M" Tank Lines ($1750 wkly guart! till you f_-%k up)... Are you familiar with this outfit? Anything good or bad about them??? Next, I will be coming from Vegas (home) & found a Concrete mixing job here, Pay will be about $1200 wkly. Obviously Vegas is a much more fun place than Odessa (been there done that)... Are there any GOOD COMPANYS that are paying ABOVE AVE... ie: $2500 WKLY???

 

Depends on location from my understanding

 

OPEC didn't specifically lower their prices, but at least 2 OPEC members have lowered their prices. Iraq is selling oil at $4/bbl below market to Asia. OPEC is a strange mix of countries:

• Algeria
• Angola
• Ecuador
• Iran
• Iraq
• Kuwait
• Libya
• Nigeria
• Qatar
• Saudi Arabia
• United Arab Emirates
• Venezuela

Venezuela is actually one of the 5 founding members, and they are the ones that stormed out of the November meeting when Saudi Arabia announced that production would not be cut.

 

$2500 weekly... only people doing that are the night shift guys at plains in the midland yard.. and only a few get that high pay...

 

what company is that

 

Plains in Midland, good outfit? I will look em up. I have an invite to start out with J & M Tank Lines in Odessa $1750 per wk. guart ( till you screw up!)

 

have a friend who hauls crude here, they cut his hours/loads..said they dont have the work...

 

We applied with them but got an offer from Nabors before we heard anything back from them. Unfortunately I don't know much about them and don't see them very often around Big Lake. They may be out here, I just haven't noticed.

Cluad-paul, we work for Nabors. They are tightening their belt so to speak on some things but nothing that affects us drivers. Yet. We still have plenty of work. We had to have three of our Sonora drivers come help out last night. I know we bid on more batteries so we will see what happens with that.

 

I know we have a man camp but I couldn't say definitively what other companies offer housing.
