Well, lots of folks have started up their own pages, so I figured, why not. If only this "web-ter-net" wasn't such a fad. I'm setting this all up on a drilling rig, and hour from nowhere. Here's what I see out my front window:
The rig is a pretty neat operation, with so many interdependant systems. Certainly a unique workplace. We're just about through the winter drilling season, looking towards the spring. Which, in our neck of the woods, is synonymous with "MUD". I've been doing geological consulting on this same rig - Jade Drilling #15 - for about 2 years now, drilling natural gas wells in a gas field north of Hinton, Alberta. It's up in the foothills and very busy...there's rigs everywhere. We have to keep going to fulfill ol' George Bush's insatiable demand for fuel. This is good for me, it means steady work; not always guaranteed as a consultant. But it also means lots of time in the field, away from family and freinds. My sattelite internet connection is my lifeline to these people. Hopefully, my ongoing posts will describe my various exploits with they and I...
