End of one Chapter

The solstice has come and gone and with the new season comes a new job!  That’s right after I TDed MY well I started the trip north today. I have been given the opportunity to work in North Dakota for a Geo Steering company. I’m so excited!!!

I truly hate to leave my old company they have been more then awesome more than once! I am so glad that I have gotten to work here not once but twice. Great coworkers make all the difference and great bosses help too. All though this chapter was much shorter then I planned it is with a very large bag of mixed emotions that I start the next chapter of my career.

This is what it looks like when you have to clean out your “desk” at my job. J

What is Geo Steering I’m sure you ask? Well! Not only does a Geo Steerer look at the rocks and the other information but they also drive the well in a sense. If the formations are dipping up or down it is the Geo Steerer’s job to direct the rig and the drillers to turn the bit the right way to stay in formation.  It will be a great new challenge! I can’t wait! It will be lots more stress, new formations to learn, and it’s in North Dakota, BUT its real geology, I get to use my degree AND it comes with a schedule!

So with a heavy but excited heart I began the drive. Next post about the awesome road trip! Last Oklahoma sunrise!!!! At least for now. I said I would never come back to Oklahoma before so I won’t say it now.
