Bakken questions

What is Good pay up there? Does your company include housing also?

 

That’s good to hear that there is still a lot of work up there.

 

What kind of pay can one expect up there hauling crude and available to work 7 days a week?

 

They provide housing for me, benefits after 60 days, As for money I just started so we’ll see, I expect to be above $2K per week based on 70 hrs per week. Either way I’m here till the spring when frac-fluid heating tapers off. I do see “now hiring” billboards around.

 

I am a o/o looking to get into the oilfield industry hauling sandbox are there any good reliable company’s out there any help will be greatly appreciated thanks in advance keep trucking

 

You can make more yanking a van around. Boxes killed the rates, no special equipment no specialized drivers, any idiot can pull a box. Trust me not worth it

 

Yeah, sucks driving 40 miles round trip for a measly $390. 6 loads a day!!! Just BS!

 

And that's exactly who's doing it, in the Permian and in the Eagle Ford anyway. All those DA container haulers decided to try their hand at making oilfield money.
