The oilfield is an uncharted territory for me until very recently my husband introduced to me the intricacies of oilfield business. He has been in this job for the past 30 years and still going. I am proud to say that we are the least bit hit by the economic crisis that most people have been very unlucky lately. I am a practicing lawyer in my hometown while husband works for Nabors in Saudi Arabia on a 35/35 days rotation.

I am looking forward to meeting friends here especially oilfield wives whose experiences are more wide, diverse and those who have in-depth knowledge of what it would take to be an oilfield wife...for this has been a journey of kaleidoscopic emotions and a roller-coaster ride of excitement.

Nice to see you here , we are in small global village, your Husband was my boss in my previous company, he is a kind person, and still I have online communication with him, thru email or YMessenger etc,

I really miss him seriously, you just ask him about me he will tell you all the jokes we do there, I never feel that I am interacting with Boss, this was his quality, you are lucky that you got Alton as Hubby.

Enjoy.
