      I would be willing to bet I live more frugally, and have done more with less than every crap talker here.

      Most of the ones that do live off daddies money and the work their parents did. Then acting like they had something to do with it

          I work for a large Spring manufacturer in the Houston area, and most of our larger customers are oilfield related. The last 4-6 months have been booming, starting to slow down some now, but our shop guys are still working 60-70 hrs a week. We think there is still some meat on the bone, only time will tell.

            We are still busy as can be, but have "topped out" from the initial rush from everyone trying to get everything back up and running.

                  I think an accurate meter of oilfield business is the price of a hotel room in midland….

                  $240 tonight after taxes at the courtyard Marriott. I’d say oil is doing fairly well

                    All I know is a lot of Texans are affected by the price per barrel.

                            Im an idiot, I was seriously considering buying stock in oil companies at the end of the pandemic but felt it would be foolish to have everything tied to one industry ( investment and my business). Mistake

                              I'm in research and development for deep water drilling technologies. Basically we synthesize chemicals to alleviate drilling problems on a well by well basis, or rig by rig.

                              Business is booming. I know our major customers all have new projects and plans extending out the next ten years. Mostly for South America and GoM. The price per barrel will drop, but anything around 80 is good for us and good for consumers. Above that is fine too, but i get about 13.5 mpg, so Im happy with 85 or so.

                              I can't speak for onshore production, as that's not my gig. But I do know that the next few years is planned for and pumping. The market has adjusted to the supply and inflation BS. Companies have a handle on most of it, as far as I can tell.

                              We are on the fence about new property and home, I have no fear of the next 3-5 years in the OG market.

                                Trucked natural gas business is as busy as ever. Our volumes have tripled since January of 2020, and we've been sold out for around 15 months.

                                I expect the capital discipline and consolidation to continue by E&Ps and service companies alike, regardless of what oil prices do. You can bet Saudi is about to announce another round of cuts this Friday, and the Mummy can't do a thing about it. He will continue to villainize our industry, and his most desperate move of windfall taxes won't pass. Should be a strong run for another few years IMO, let's make the most of it!
