Oilfield guys... y’all hangin in there?

[txoutdoorsman24]

Still here trying to sell equipment! Things are starting to pick up just a little bit for us but want and need more.

Our plant is still shut in. No sight of any rigs. I still have a job but not much hope of things picking up in the Panhandle.

Talked to one of our customers last week (we rent and sell equipment to oilfield services companies). He was told by his biggest customer they will be starting some new fracking jobs at the end of this month and first of August.

We'll be working for 5 additional frac spreads that are coming online over the next 6 weeks. Also 4 drilling rigs coming online in the next 4 weeks. All Permian. Picked up one rig this week in Oklahoma. Late Q3/Q4 should be better but it feels like we're trying to turn a small corner right now.

Pretty flat for us. No new ones lost and 1-2 new rigs coming this month

I haven't rendered a title opinion since January, all of my independent clients are shut down and no new exploration or acquisitions. Some of them owe me quite a bit of money too, not sure what to do. If anyone needs title or transactional work fast, I have extra time.

Just my thoughts. Oil companies better drill now and Frac now because if Crazy Joe Biden and the dems get elected they already said they will stop all fracking the first day in office.

The Lord keeps sending us enough work to maintain all my employees... I cut my own salary, but so far, no one else's. We do have some good non-oil patch pressure equipment business, but it's still the patch that turns the lights on over here...

Not being argumentative but I really don't think any politicians have this much power. While they might like to get this done I don't think they would be able to even with an entire term in office. They could certainly make it more difficult in areas like Colorado but they would have a tough time passing enough regulation in markets like Texas and Oklahoma. If they stopped fracking in the entire US can you imagine what would happen to the price of oil?

Do you not remember when obama shut down offshore deepwater drilling in the GoM?? At the time, there were 7 deep water drill ships operating in the Gulf... 5 of the 7 finished the hole they were on, then weighed anchor and headed to Brazil... What that means is they are gone for a minimum of 5 years!! The other two stuck around a while... hoping... Transocean scrapped their newest drill ship as a result of that shut down...
Yea it can happen and it has happened and the DemoKrauts will see that it happens again. Look what happened to the Keystone pipeline... obama shut that sucker down by endless surveys, evaluations and crap like that... Trump gets into office, and it gets kicked into high gear within 6 months...

As far left as the DemoKraut party has shifted with the "squad", they'll shut down drilling everywhere... If working men and women don't go to the polls and vote the DemoKrauts out that are in, and keep any of the other socialists from the party from getting in, we will get exactly what we deserve...

Well I thought I got out by gthe thing in the trash business but looks like oilfield is the biggest users of porta cans and roll off dumpsters. So if y'all use those give me a shout and let me see if I can save y'all some money!

Not to derail the thread, but I stock and sell garbage trucks and roll-offs if you find yourself in need. Oilfield customers are big users but garbage is big business. The 'Rona put a hurting on it too but it will bounce back soon enough....November is my guess.

Hope you oil guys hang in there. It will all come back.

It’s not going to get better until a few years. To much oil in the market. I had to move on.

Halliburton posted Q2 losses at 1.7 Billion dollars today.

Luckily we are kinda busy on the production side of things. Still sending out equipment daily but it’s still slow. As far as the sales side of things go, it’s frustrating and tougher than all get out! Can’t get responses or answered phone calls from engineers and others. Will just keep plugging away while I’m employed.

Praying for a quicker turnaround but all the majors keep saying Q4 is when activity will start to pick up.

If anyone is in the gas lift, plunger or packer business, PM me. We are possibly adding another salesman to the team. If you need equipment, lemme know too, I can help you there

Not sure if this is still relevant but I sent you a PM. My son was in this business until recently. The key word is WAS.

I wish they’d get back to drilling again here around the Brazos area. I supply diesel and oil / hydraulic to the rigs and local support companies and it has all but came to a stop here .
