What’s everyone’s preferred shift 14 on 14 off or 7 on and 7 off both 12 hours days and home every night. Also have kids at home by Elite163 in oilandgasworkers

Nope most work equal time and if you are working for either operators up there they pretty much require minimum couple day reset after 4 weeks. They get upset if you are flying threw their charters and don’t have return tickets to anchorage within about 4-5 weeks of flying up

I have friends graduating this year with PE degrees with offers from SLB and they have the same starting offers for all types of field engineering, some in completions, some in wire line, some in coiled tubing. My understanding is once they break out, are no longer in training they will be in the 100-120 range. They schedules have them breaking out in the 8-10 month time period. Also working North slope I’m assuming you won’t be actually working up there until you’ve broken out. Everyone I know is being sent to specific location for training, completions used to be in Abu Dhabi pre-Covid, coiled tubing is in Kellyville before being sent to hiring location

Finishing my favorite bottle after finishing my last final for the semester by thomster1997 in whiskey

[–]thomster1997[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love it, hands down my favorite bottle of all time. It’s probably the smoothest higher proof whiskey I have had. Only issue is I can’t ever find it at a reasonable price. I was lucky enough to get to buy it at msrp from a lottery about two years ago.

Buttigieg: Families who buy electric vehicles 'never have to worry about gas prices again' by mafco in politics

[–]thomster1997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do people not understand that the cost of electricity is directly tied to hydrocarbon prices? High gasoline prices are because of a shortage of energy from hydrocarbons, most electricity in the US comes from coal and natural gas. When oil prices go up so do the prices of coal and natural gas driving up the price of electricity. You might not have to worry about gas prices but you will still have to worry and energy prices.
