Looking for oil/gas drilling yards
That are building their own rigs in house and need welders. I have been working up in Colorado for the last few months and am going to work back here. Tired of the bullshit politics and back stabbing where I was. I know of most of the drilling companies out here in the east tx area. Just hoping someone knows of a company that needs contract welders immediatley. Within 250 miles of Dallas or so, Houston is fine. Tony (Nineball), you are in the industry if memory serves. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Brandon

Try Spindletop Production out of Gainesville, TX (??30ish miles N. of Denton). I was a oil rig welder all summer until I came back to school for a local group. I know Spindletop does the major crown/derrick/sub repair as well as build new rigs (i think). Do you have your own welding rig?

If I could stumble upon a good company with good pay I would consider it. But if it only pays what the yards do or a dollar or two more, I am not at all interested.
