  1. Interesting. Yea doing some sleuthing online it looks like the 110,000 bpd Pasadena refinery was built in 1920 and bought by Petrobras in 2012. Recently sold to Chevron, apparently there’s a pretty major project to revamp it because it is recognized as a turd.
  2. This is the one that Chevron recently bought from Petrobras right?
  3. Myself and my friends were involved in completing and placing on production multiple wells in the Monterey shale out in California for various operators. To my knowledge no operator has really figured out the formula for success out there. I left in early 2018 though. Also, California is making it really hard (even more than usual) on oil companies lately after a few well publicized spills that have occurred over the course of 2019.
  4. You can’t really go over 25 mph with chains on, they start to really chew up your fender well liners if you do.
  5. Hahaha. Fair points. I am just dipping in the pinkey toe, couple hundred shares. There must be one last bounce left 😄.
  6. Anyone else getting into CHK? I can’t help myself. I’ve been in and out and never made much money on it but I’m picking up some shares just for shits at this price.
  7. If it’s just me I’m making my morning cup with an aero press. If i have company, French press. Both are brainlessly easy.
  8. Mechanix is general issue PPe in all the oilfields I’ve ever worked in.
  9. The crushing. They have some pretty solid food and a very well equipped self serve bar. Other than that I could take or leave dfw as a whole. I’m in Frankfurt now, trying to rustle up another lounge to marinate in.
  10. Currently crushing the self serve bar in the AA flagship lounge at DFW. Highly recommended.
  11. Hahahaha POO RAGGY
  12. I wonder if they will bring the Partitioned zone fields back online.
  13. Yea man. That makes sense. I was just thinking of all the cables, instruments, JBs, actuators, etc that got toasted in that fire. The major equipment is just one piece then you have to install it and actually hook everything else up, commission it, etc.
  14. Reuter’s is reporting they destroyed five crude stabilization towers. You can’t just replace those in a week or two. Those are long lead items that would take months to fab I figure.
  15. I read on Reuter’s that they knocked out five crude stabilization towers. Those are massive pressure vessels and even though I’ve never specced out installing them I am in the industry. Lead time on something like that would be like 2-3 months minimum if you could get a fab shop to dedicate itself directly to you and toss all other orders aside.
  16. This was most likely an Iranian organized and executed attack with the Houthis acting as the useful idiot to take the blame. Recent similar attacks on Saudi oil infrastructure claimed by the Houthis were found to have originated from Iranian backed militias in Iraq.
  17. Now that I travel exclusively international business class (also oilfield trash) I specialize in doing just this sort of shenanigan.
  18. Hahaha I lived in university towers my freshman year what a fuck show that was. So many ceiling tiles got knocked out they must have bought those things in bulk.
  19. Exxon sucks talk not going away
  20. I have a nice set of Globals that I love. Sharp as razors and easy to maintain. Just definitely no dishwasher.
  21. Both these guys are right on the money and know what they’re talking about.
  22. This is the correct answer. This is the correct answer.
  23. I would third and second these recommendations. 395 is the bomb and I always used to hang out in the eastern Sierra / Mammoth area. If I wasn’t there I was on the central coast crushing the 1 and hanging out in Big Sur.
  24. I stick with wired because I’m a budding audio snob 😇. I also like earbuds. I’m currently listening to some shure 535s.
  25. I’m doing facilities engineering work on the commissioning team for a big production expansion project over there. Pretty good work, I like it.
