Can’t believe i never caught this. Up down slips is a big no no.. no sunflower seeds on the floor and every bit is always pointing down

Nice post though. Worked oil rigs myself. Work safe 👍

Damn you guys need to adjust them brakes the brake handle almost on the floor be safe hands only takes about 15 minutes

After my baby shoes (and pricing out boots) ifound a pair of head's iin the furnace cubicle in the shack i was staying they were somewhat dried up and neaded soles so i asked around to see if they belonged to anyone as it was still winter an we were all wearing Sorrels, so i oiled them up some and on long change took them to Edson were my Digger said there was a shoemaker that specialized in rig boots and tarps ect.,and he put on some new cats paws, and heels. Spring came around and i started wearing them on the few day's it wasn't to wet and muddy in the hill's. Then one day someone recognized them and a few started talking and they found that a former camp attendant had put them there after they sent back Boomers beginnings. So my Derrick hand came to me and said "don't you know your wearing a dead mans boots" as Boomer was killed in a car accident before i started roughnecking. By then i could afford to by new one's so i said to contact the family and they said keep wearing them if i wanted to.

Better put in some new dyes In that make up tong. Hello from the Australian oil field. 🤘🇭🇲

Me recuerda la forma de trabajar a mis inicios allá por el año 1987.

Another day of watching connections and i will be ready to set intermediate

Safety comes first

I can only pray to God no one was seriously injured or killed..The lack of basic training in floorhand skills is abhoorant

What happened to the old crew?

Always got my ass chewed if the driller had to take more than one bite on the lead tongs when U was throwing the chain! And we used the back up tongs instead of locking the rotors table.

I did an interview for oil rig electrician . Anyone to brief me on what an electricians day is on an oil rig

Slips. Same on you

Two tongs take longer too. And like ol dad said, that's what the table lock is for.

Floorhand has his head in not a safe place. Was in line of fire. His head 😊was

John u no up side slips. This is randy what's up

Got to be a better way to lock the table...hand under tongs and all...not good

Mayby ano that rig val

Bad luck leaving drilling tools upside down

Breaking out that giant ass rig to run a well that isn't 1000 feet.

Upside down anything on the rig floor is bad luck

What is it with u people.... How else ya Hanna lock the table... been doing it like that forever.... some have separate locks depending which tongs ur using but all the same what's wrong with it

Brake handle goes way to far down.

Brake handle too low. Need a spinning Kelly.

In another view, the video shows the work form in real laboral life... It's view ever day..! Remember Old School for the new partner and personnel...!

My friend has part of his jaw missing from the chain breaking. Now he’s a carpenter. Good to be good with your hands, but some jobs are just good for quick summer money. This is one of them.

Hay rough necks chat me up

All I can say is, these guys must know what the hell they are doing or they'd crush their hands under that chain or get their heads bashed in by a multi-hundred pound piece of cast iron something.

Lol. Ironically I used to watch total drunks and pot heads work their fn asses off on those drilling rigs. Hard ass work and hard ass drinkers for sure. Nothing light about the oilfield.

So dangerous
