Type A
A couple of type As going at it. No big deal until one hits the ice. I once knew a land rig owner, drilling on a footage K, throw a driller off the rig floor for not putting more weight on the bit (And fired him on the way down). Listen it's clear we need to increase the mud weight on the pressure building up on the board. Lets try and keep the pressure in the formation and get back some positive juju. SportyJ

Back in the 1970s when footage drilling was a thing. Stopped when oil companies realized that they were getting f'ed up wells. Started out roughnecking in 1978 on such wells in Alberta. 1000 feet per 12 hour tour minimum.Yeah quit the bs that you got no cojones if you sell. People got families. This sp is not helping things. They got a good well or not? These guys need a good rally if they do.

It's all good Dirk, really is. As a young pup in the mid 80s oil was sub $10 and you could get a footage K for 8 or 9 bucks a foot. Was all relative, cheap to drill but couldn't sell a bbl for squat. It was a really ugly oil patch and had me wondering why choose to work in it. Time flies. SportyJ
