So, I’ve been out here a few months now. Excited to be back in fuel is an understatement. I should’ve never left fuel hauling, but we all make mistakes l. Anyhow, I’m doing 100% oilfield. Mostly dyed diesel, with some clear deisel and we do LNG too.
The equipment is absolutely trashed. But it’s the oilfield. Paid by the load, $300-800 per day. Average is $2500-3000 weekly on a 6-day workweek. That’s as a company driver with full benefits and free housing at a mancamp.
All in all, I’m loving it. I can’t sustain it long-term and knew that going in. It’s a means to an end, for me.

How is living in a mancamp? How many people live there? Sounds like your making some good money though!!!
austinmike Thanks this. -
How much prev fuel experience is required?
With LNG -- how much prev experience is required for that?
How long is each "shift"....before any time off?
How many days is there for time off?
What benefits (401-k, health ins, etc) come with that sort of pay?

I'm glad everything's working out for you. Would you mind sharing who you work for?
austinmike Thanks this. -

No previous LNG experience is required. They train you and they pay for the Texas LNG testing through the railroad commission.
6 on, 1 off. I’m not sure of the minimum time you have to work before taking home time. I think the maximum home time is 3 or 4 weeks.
Full benefits - Medical, Dental, Vision, etc. They’re not cheap though, especially if you’ve a family. And I believe there’s no company match on the 401k contributions.austinmike and lual Thank this. -

Sounds like Rolfson Oil. Maybe Pilot Thomas.
There are so many newcomers hauling fuel in the Permian the past 5 years or so, I can’t keep up. A decade ago, I could count them all on one hand. Now it’s both hands, and 1/2 my toes.77fib77 and austinmike Thank this.
