Depends on your position. I heard most are making 2$ more an hour then the hands in the eagleford.

Drillers probably are around 31-35$ so on and so forth...

My friends son is 18 and just got a job doing pipeline work. $15 hour but works 65+ hours and they get $125 per diem per day. So it comes out to about $1500-$1600 a week.

You don't want n.dakota. very brutal winters (williston& Dickinson). Yes good $ but very cold, desolate and it just sucks lol (at least to me). Panhandle is where its at ( I'm working that area pretty hard). Just my .02 Btw ya I tried n.d for about a week and I threw in the towel lol.
