Abz Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 There is oil on land too Now you are making me look silly! I knew that, but was just wondering what role do you play? I take it is not as drastic as working over sea's. You get involved with the actual drilling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it is not as drastic as working over sea's. You get involved with the actual drilling? Yea kinda the drilling bit, not the actual drilling but whats called the "Completion" to get the oil out from the bottom to top once the drillings finished before they can open the tap up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance you can give us an honest opinion on the oil situation? Are we that low in supplies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
