IS THERE BIG MONEY IN THE CRUDE OIL INDUSTRY?

- The crude oil industry can be great but you have to make sure you save your money when things are popping because everything can end very abruptly out of nowhere. Make sure if you do decide to go into this before you get there buy all your essential cloths in your area because price gauging is very big in the areas the oil is being produced. The biggest places for crude oil are North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Colorado and Texas...

GET HELP PLEASE!!!!
Pull forward and back several times before you set your brakes. And never set your trailer brakes in super cold weather.
That sounds like a great idea! I'm not a trucker but think I would enjoy that. Home away from home. Plus home cooked meals, rides to store and DR. and rides to shop. Like your with family while away.
Idea is very good is like Home away from Home.
Creative Show That’s what I’m hoping to make it. 🙏🏼
Liked. I just found your channel. Left u a sub. I would like to say Thank you to all u truck drivers for keeping America going. You guys are willing to miss out on things at home so people can have things. With all that sad I HAVE NOTHING BUT MAD RESPECT FOR EACH AN EVERYONE OF YOU TRUCK DRIVERS. THANK YOU SIR
Wow thank you for your kind words.. I'm sure all the drivers that read your comment will appreciate your words..
@@ATruckersLife your welcome sir
Crazy... I just became a subscriber and it looks like you are chillin in Stanley ND. I haul crude out of that area. I do very well and normally run about 6 weeks on and 2 off at home in Florida.
New to your channel I love your input on trucking. The bed and breakfast is a good idea maybe a show also keep up the great videos peace .
Lord yes we need stuff like this on the road !!!
Nice video man and yeah when the oil feild is booming your golden great money but you always want 2 or 3 different trailers for your truck if your a o/o incase the oil feild falls you can park your oil trailer or trailers and hook onto your reefer dryvan or flatbed or a bull rack or grain trailer and make money that way until the oil feild sky rockets again
The people looking at the idea of a Bed and Breakfast for truckers, should look into what is called ‘Trail Angels’ on the long hiking trails. They provided a variety of services for hikers. Shipping goods ahead of the hikers, arranging lodging or helping with appointments etc. A very good idea.
David Goodridge Great info! I will do that. Thank you 🙏🏼
Love your video's, please keep them "G" rated. Praying for your safety.
That's my goal to make sure my videos can be watched by the whole family..
Yeah been there and done that. When oil is kicking high, you better jump on it and save your money because close yo holiday's that's when it slows down.
That's why I got out of it. Hate the roller coaster ride
Your friends idea of a truckers bed and breakfast would be great. Eventhough they are saying they will pick you up. I would suggest maybe getting some acreage and build a parking lot. Start off small and grow. I know back in the early 2000 when I first learned. Several truck stops halted cars pulling in and out of the truck parking. I know things have changed. Just a thought. Love the b n b idea.
Orale’ bro. North Dakota is too cold for this desert rat. I have worked in the oil fields in Southeastern NM and the money is excellent! I really prefer over the road. Thanks for another heartfelt video. Mucho Cuidado,
Muchas Gracias bro.. stay safe..
I don't know anything about your profession but I like your channel.
Thank you for your comment.. Come along for the ride and I will show you a little bit of our life's on the road..
Great information thanks
I’m working out of Williston,ND
It is start to go into a slow down.
Maybe just because of the election and low gas prices
I used too work there in killdeer and new town hauling crude and water back then was GOOD money
Last. Keep up the great work!
That green and white Mack I think back in the 60d's they called them cracker boxes, cause it was like being in one no room.Really like 👍👍your videos! Be safe!!
Love the 🎶 Stay warm!!!!!
Great video man!!!!
I thank the Bed and Breakfast for truckers would be great
Randy Carter Can I ask you what part you would be most interested in?
@@reydelsol7026 I thank ( which doesn't amount much ) the feeling you give to the drivers that it's like a home away from home. You know like the guy who built the McDonald's Franchise. Wanted people to love it like the one in their hometown. Comfort food. I don't know how to put it into words but there it is. Good Luck
Randy Carter I understand what you mean. My thoughts exactly.
🙏🏼
I’m a fellow Houstonian working in the Carlsbad, NM area working in Frac and have recently seen your videos keep up the good work and also helping out people looking for work and yes oilfield is good and also has it’s downfalls. Also debating whether to get into the trucking side of things. When is a good time and what loads do you recommend to stay busy. Stay safe out there bro.
Most of the year is a good time except for the holiday season.. I do chemicals and it ok..
Good music bro y ariba Los TEXANS!!!! Saludos desde Harlingen,Tx👍✌
Spent two years in North Dakota working.
Right we’re your at. Hauling crude and then franc sand.
Hauling oil to eog rail yard or beaver lodge in tioga or other places in the area.
I would stay 3-5 weeks on and go home for a week or two. Longest I stayed was 4 months straight one winter.
I was there back in 13 when we made 3k a week as company drivers and then 12-15 a week as owner ops.
There was a lot of money out there then.
But it dropped hard in 2015 January. That’s when I left.
We ran wild back then.
The time away from home is hard for everyone and the ups and down are hard. Then the break downs on equipment made it hard.
That crude tanker u showed isn’t the biggest.
They have other ones with the spread axel in the back and those u can load 245-270 bbl depending on gravity and temp of oil.
The truth is that to make money out there u need to be an owner op and haul heavy. Way heavy. And run with no log book. Then u will make money. But u get cought or in an accident and your done. They will ticket u till your momma cries. And if u hurt someone, u will get charged and arrested. I seen it happen out there. Fatalities , heavy tickets , trucks hit by trains, roll overs, truckers falling asleep at the wheel, truckers dead in sleepers cause of heart attacks, fights, big money, big losses and more.
I loved it till I didn’t.
I left and am doing otr these days. Much slower pace, great money, much much less expenses and insurances, better quality of life and just a cleaner life in general.
I like the conversations but maybe you can vlog you eating or showing your down time in the cab...Just a suggestion..
Good music man
Believe it or not kitty litter will help getting unstuck as well learned about that in Ohio at a place I was delivering to the dock was next to the tracks so it was plenty of snow and ice because it was mostly dress and gravel
Great information Johnny...thank you...
What’s up homie good to see you stay safe bro
Thank you bro.. I'm trying lol..
Lol make that money cuz money don’t sleep
Geeez, years back now i ran supplies to Pa's Marcellus shale development. Logging 250K miles in 3 years clearing 250K, then i stopped, right before it ended. Now staying local here in Philadelphia
We're here with you bro
Thank you Diana...
i was thinking about doing that too
that intro smooth af
Yea its nice but now they are stacking rigs uea good to have the cdl is great
And dragging those hazmat loads around pays pretty dang good to huh bro. Be safe and god bless. Looks like you and hot chocolate are a little bit on the cold side
Cold is putting it lightly lol... They pay ok but if course it could be better..
Bed and breakfast would be cool, question is where the hell would you park the truck in Joliet ?
Guillermo S There are a few TS within 20 miles that are in safe areas. Once I’m ready to roll, there are a couple of close companies that I plan on speaking with to let me have you guys park in their lots.
Bob tail in my drive way it's cool
Cool stuff man 👍
You should interview a driver on how ELD works up north
Or
They riding paperlog
Good Info and Video .
Love the music !!!
Yup!
That's nuthing come up to Michigan
Just keepin it real primo. Took time off for 4 months. After being in oilfield for 10 years. Sometimes water hauling pays better than oil. Done both. Water hauling is nasty your always dragging hoses. I'll stick to oil cuz you don't have to work as hard. And nobody will tell you they start you off in the night shift. Until they say you can move to day shift. Usually it takes 6 months. Very few company's pay by the hour anymore. Everyone pays by the load. Each load is different , loaded miles. If you get a reject that pays minimal 15 to 50 anymore if any. Oh yeah this is for co. drivers not o/ops. If your an o/op you can rake it in but be very careful. These days even one traffic ticket will cost you the whole job. Dirt roads are nasty. Wear a football helmet. Good numbers to ya. Keep the shiny side up.!
Yeah I've done both myself and yes I definitely prefer oil over water...
Love the video
Nice Riay Good like Trockingn
Saludos bro
Saludos amigo..
Where do you get the music? In the 1980s I lived and worked for several years in Mexico. I really like it.
That’s a amazing idea. I would definitely use a place like that. Bring the home life on the road.
gregmegaspeed81 Right?! I call it “Oasis, a better 34.” Is there any particular part that interests you?
All of it. I stay in hotels from time to time and it just never felt right. Trapped in 4 walls. No way to be mobile. To me that sounds more like home than laying in a sleeper or in a hotel. Having a place to keep on trucking would make it that much more fun. A friendly environment. You’d feel like family. I stayed in the same hotel and grew some great relationships so I could only imagine how awesome that would be.
I RATHER HAUL OIL IN MIDLAND TX.
Your channel is growing so fast you won't be able to heart every comment.
I've been trying to read and respond to everyone I can but it is getting harder and harder... lol.. Thank you for your comment Kim...
Like your channel bro 👍
Thank you Ernest..

Nice.. I was freezing my butt off but the guy that unloaded me said its actually worm up here for this time of year.. I just looked at him 🤔😂😂😂
Watching news it looks like gas prices are going up
I know its getting scary...

Liberty!! BDFC
Hope you love -30 mornings...lol..been there done that
No I'm good lol...
Sleep? forgot what that was lol. Would not fall asleep last night for the life of me in the truck. In a day cabfor a few days waiting. so hotel for me to recover lol no listening to a reefef!!! Sometimes the life of a company is ok too! Lol
Oh yes you are correct a company driver has way less stress.. I was next to a load reefer the other night and it was driving me insane..lol..
A Truckers Life my reefer was off the other night too. Might have been to quiet. Not sure how well you can see it in my profile picture but the reefer is on top of my 40”bunk. Vibrates everything. Monday to Friday stuggles!
@@saltydogkw7343 look me up on Instagram..A Truckers Life and send me a picture of your truck.
Love your music selection, with this video.
dawgonitt you got my job fudge i am butt have zero exp as it all experied butt i been up there 2 times even have cousins up there and i need to be in stanley or that area hold on to your hat after recent middle east mess gonna have a effect hold that spot watchout for H2S huh
Very true that's definitely something we gotta look out for...
@@ATruckersLife hello there so is there work up there in the winter
@@timothyfritsch8801 I'm sure there is because alot of people get out for the winter..
Only advice I can give you is to record everything!!
Jorge,
I'm 24. I'm enrolled for my cdl. Had to pause becuz of a card I didnt have. However, I Will be going back sometime this week. J just want to really ask you. Is it worth it going over the road? I feel like this is
something I need to do. I'm just... afraid of how things will turn out..I'm from Washington State. Swift has reached out to me to call back once I get my cdl. Despite hearing bad things I probably will go to Swift. Also I'm not getting my hazmats becuz i feel like those jobs are giving to those with more experience. Depending how things go I will probably get it in the future. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
At your age I would definitely give it a run... Hit the road and enjoy your beautiful country and learn as much as you can for at least a year... After that year you will know what route you need to take next local or OTR... There are alot of good local trucking jobs in the Tri-cities area in Washington... Good luck brother..
No way? I am from the tri! I would definitely enjoy being home every week but OTR is something I wanna experience it first hand. Everyone who is OTR says it's a beautiful country indeed and definitely worth it. Probably saying it so I wont back out, but what can I say, im very nervous and get cold feet just thinking bout going away for days at a time sometimes maybe weeks. I'm gonna die single anyways lol. I also got my family on my mind, and if I dont do it someone else will gladly do it. That's just the reality of it. I'm going all in though. With your aliviating words. I once again have high Hope's for my future in the trucking industry :). Thank you Jorge glad I found your channel. I hope to run into you someday. God bless you and everyone else.
@@rkbala82 Your gonna be ok my brother.. It would be cool to meet you one day.. Safe travels you got this...
No work in oil fields in ND or any oil fields in this country hell they just layed off ppl all over the country in oil fields
Really?
Its been slowing down in W. Tx for awhile.
Am in south Texas we being in the down turn since early February 2019 no sign of it picking up!!
It ain’t booming up here but should be getting going for 1st Q
This requires several years of work experience??tnx🙏
you wanna follow Crude Tall Oil!
Big money maker hell Yeah
that's a good idea. it would be better if they had a set up for parking using there service.
Kris Bryant If it takes off, that would happen in the future. There are a couple of TS close that are in a safe area right now.
Ray Del Sol gotcha..yeah that would be my only thing, is the parking safe etc. but it sounds great. we definitely need more options for the trucker.
Song?
NO THANK
You driving for heniff?
Would you leave a stable guaranteed 85k a year job with benefits to go be an owner op? Already in a heavy oilfield area. Aways wanted to do my own thing but not a bad gig I currently have
I would ride out what you have going as long as I could. Special right now when fright is slow..
How many days are you usually at work?and how mny at home in the week??🙏✌️
Myself 1 to 2 weeks and 2 to 4 days at home.. But the oil field work it depends on your contract it could be weeks or months..
I work in Effingham Illinois at the Tampa in the shop 12 noon to 8 PM if you ever want talk stop by see me if it is after 8pm I not work over than I well be around the Verizon key sock if I not there they well no were I am
Haha been hearing that for a long while oil field not worth it cheap basturds and a bunch of cut throats doing it for cheap and working long hours
Whats the song name
Is it worth being a tanker owner operator ?
It's like everything else.. it's ok but the only thing is that some loads slosh alot and it punishes your truck..
Hi sir, thanks for your video, im interested with this position, i have 4 years otr dryvan, but i have tank/hazmat, can you help me to get there an become a part of your team?
Go to Heniff.com and put me as a reference Jorge Navarro. Good luck my friend
@@ATruckersLife Thank you 🙏
Ever come up to Idaho?
It's been a while bro.. What part?
A Truckers Life I work for a Flying J in Caldwell Idaho
Where's the company u wrk 4 from?
Things did kick off - isn’t “crude” dead now and not going up anymore?
Ru a OO if so does the company pay you for those long distance dh
Where do I apply
Coning is a rate-sensitive phenomenon generally associated with high producing rates. Strictly a near-wellbore phenomenon, it only develops once the pressure forces drawing fluids toward the wellbore overcome the natural buoyancy forces that segregate gas and water from oil.
czcams.com/video/xjRBznQUZMg/video.html
Bottomwater can be pulled into a well by excessive producing rates:
this may occur in either an oil or gas well. This problem is called "coning" and is indicated by increasing water oil ratio as flow rates are increased. It can generally be improved by reducing the production rate.
Wow thank you for all that interesting information..🙏🏼🙏🏼
umm is it all offroad or mixed
Nixed..
Mixed..
@@ATruckersLife how about that 100mile or 150 mile radius that still legal concerning ELD,s
