I only worked with those guys for about a month in June this year when that rig was up in Washington County, PA, but everyone was pretty cool to work with. They were all pretty forgiving working with a newbie like me. They all answered the multitude of questions that I asked concerning drilling and drilling rig operations. I thought for a time that my logging unit was going to follow them to NE PA, but I got sent to work with Savannah 635 and now I am on Saxon 141. Hope to see those guys again sometime in the future.

Thanks Phil on the Pic. #253 was my first and only triple stack to date. All the rest have been double stacks with the one exception of an air job I did in SW Washington County. Was a Whipstock rig, but can't remember the rig number. Wasn't allowed to take pics of that one, though.

I am Unit Manager of Diversified Well Logging Unit DT-127, working with Stone Energy and Saxon 141 in New Martinsville, WV, right now. Have been with Stone and Saxon for a little over a month now. Pretty good bunch of hands on the Saxon rig. Stone is a good company to work for. All the third party people out here are great. This is supposed to be my permanent assignment, but with my company, I have learned that anything can change at any second, lol.
What about you guys?
