Big Oil and Gas 24

When discussing the future of the oil and gas industry beyond 2024, it is important to consider the unscientific use of the propaganda term "pollutant" when referring to CO2 gas. While people often label CO2 as a "Greenhouse Gas", it's important to remember that CO2 is necessary for all plant life, and mammals exhale CO2 as a natural bodily function. Therefore, labeling CO2 as a pollutant is wrong. Do Not Comply if necessary, California government officials should be informed of these facts.

CO2?

2024 11 24 Profiles of Courage - Darnel Monroe (Floor Hand)

2024 11 24 Profiles of Courage - Darnel Monroe (Floor Hand)

This morning, Sunday, November 24, 2024, at 6:00 am MST, we are drilling 23 fph at 14,616’.Made 536’ yesterday.
Had a really good day drilling yesterday, keeping the bit on bottom for 23½ hours.
I had several small drilling breaks yesterday, and each one gave up a small shot of gas.
Currently looking for the Shannon 2 sand within the next ±100’ or so.
This is the zone that really kicked us two years ago when we drilled the original Green Mountain Federal #4 well.
This time we have enough mud weight to adequately control the well.
Mud Motor is starting to act up (differential pressure spikes).
Will probably have to trip for a new bit and mud motor today (17 to 18 hours round trip)

Current plans are:
(1.) Drill 6 1/8” hole to 15,600’ TVD (15,800’ MD) TD thru the Shannon 5!!

Today’s video features Mr. Darnel Monroe, Floor Hand for Rig 88. Pat has 10 years of experience throughout the domestic US.
On each crew, there is a Driller, Assistant Driller, Derrick Hand, Motor Man, and two Floor Hands. These guys literally perform all the manual labor on the rig.
They are the backbone of all drilling operations! Without them, nothing gets done!
They are constantly on the lookout for any kind of unsafe operations and then report the same to their Driller.
My hat is off to these guys for enduring the mud and cold, and somehow managing to keep a smile on their faces (at least most of the time…..).
In the video you can see Darnel going through his daily checklist, checking all components of Rig 88 and performing normal maintenance.
You will also get a good look at the BOP stack currently in use.

Today, have attached a pic of “Rosie”, one of our rig dogs.
For some strange reason, she prefers the couch in one of the warm trailers on location, rather than being on the rig floor where it is 32⁰F.

Also attached is another one of Jacek’s sunset pics.

Enjoy!
