September 10, 2012 by PBOG

The business of “fishing” a well bore requires skill, technology—both new and tried-and-true—and a mechanical aptitude as well. Like everything else, this trade keeps changing, too.

Heat Wave

September 10, 2012 by PBOG

OSHA-mandated flame retardant clothing (FRC) is an apparel trend that hasn’t caught fire—not among the hands who must wear it even during scorching summertime heat—but help is on the way.

Play-by-Play Report

September 6, 2012 by PBOG

The Permian’s productive plays are newmaking and interesting in and of themselves, but they reveal unique and often-unexpected qualities when alongside the plays of outlying regions.
