Nicholas, Pumpco energy services is hiring like crazy for work in west Texas. We are a frac company so the hours are long and can be pretty tough but if your in decent physical condition you should be able to do it. There's a 57 and a 60 year old guys on my crew and they make it just fine. You wouldn't need to find a place to live cause they put you up in a hotel out there. You worktwo weeks on and then get a a week off. You would bring home 7500 to 8500 a month. And evenif you hated it you could do it for a few months and get on your feet. All you would need to bring is steel toe boots. They give you like 700 in per diem when you head out there and they feed you once a dayi think

Does Pumpco require me to have a CDL before I apply? -
thank you Me99 & Ben Gunn

I am asking because some companies require the CDL/Permit while some companies are willing to send their people to training (Halliburton, Baker Hughes, ect..) So for me, it is better that I am well informed first so I can contact the correct company.
-
In addition, Me99 does work there which is why I am asking him so that we can all understand what is required.

It all depends on how bad they need people. I know for a fact they have hired people without them before but it all depends. I would go ahead and try. I work out of a different yard so I don't have all the answers for you guys.
nicholas_jordan Thanks this. -

Your paid forty hours for your week off. The weeks you work you'll do about 120-130 hours and get time and a half for anything over forty. I've had a couple of pms from guys wanting more info and I think I need to make it real clear cause some guys don't know much about the oilfield. Frac can be extremely hard work.. Like today for example. I got about four and a half hours of sleep. When we got to location it was raining and it rained most of the day. The whole location was covered in ankle deep mud and we were to busy to take cover. We swung hammers and picked up heavy iron most of the day. Not every day is hard but some days are very hard and you never really get more than four or five hours of sleep.
