Cotton Valley LA field in '77, went to derrick in East Texas on a deep hole a year later. The worst best job of my life. It's a very cold November night when you miss the block, you have to unlatch from everything, work across the derrick and wrangle the boom rope around the stand, get back to the monkey board, harness up and latch. The floor hands are vacationing by trying out different ways to call you a worm (which you are). And just for fun Davey (the drill) gasses up the pace. But once you've done that, well...

You will get better but this video shows that you are learning from a worm driller. The cows cock is backwards or elevaters/turn one or the other. Your a driller or a drk. hand when you can drill and control a well with five men on location with no electronics no alarms/just you against Mother earth. In

Sweet!!

Driller didn’t give me a slow target like this. No advice or instruction.

I loved working derricks my deiller disnt go this alow my first time on the board the block never stopped

workover

N0000

Not wearing proper PPE.

Where is your helmet ppe bro .

This is not drilling rig this is work over rig

That's alot of drill pipe.

How old were you when you first started? Just curious because we have a hiring event for Nabisco and I’m trying to weigh my options about taking the chance. I’m 36

That can’t be the first time you work derricks. You’re doing too good. I have to call bullshit

I probably was in the best shape of my life and weighed about 220. Biggest board I have worked is Parker 112. 28 feet across at the board. You could rack 18,000 ft 5 inch on one side. And A small guy about 160 show me how to work the board and where to put the ropes. And I thought I was a pretty damn good Derekhand. It’s all about leverage.

I broke out Derricks in about 1979 on small rigs like this. You can get away without using ropes and things. Then about five years later I work Derek‘s on the biggest rigs in the Rocky Mountains and I had to learn all over again how do use ropes and everything.

Fuck my first time driller was clutch so much quicker

I did this and it did not work, any other suggestions?

Looks a lot cleaner and slower than it was 50 years ago. No monkey board.

I’m envious! I’ve only ever cross country skied on streets. I have a new goal.

Driller went easy on ya hahaha, wtf are you doing with your back rope??

Use your lead out rope to hold pipe , and you won’t have to hold on to your belt rope. Once you get the pipe to the front and center of board you can stand up straight and be ready to latch em up. Those ropes are up there to work for you not you working for them, adjust your ropes according to whatever your doing and trust the ropes and your harness and you will be surprised how much better and less stress on your body it will be. Your doing good though!

Ong thanks so much. Holding it down for 10 seconds is the way to go, I thought my Xbox was broke. Thanks again

bro I have not been able to play for so long THANK YOU🤗

As a greenhorn at age 17 in the mid80's from a rousty to roughnecking eventually working on derricks on onshore and offshore, its the derrickhand work i miss the most. YTBUT. I transitioned into a service hand, a coring hand from 1991 and became a consultant in 98 up to 2012. Now at 62 i am constantly watching riglife videos.

yo wtf is he my long lost brother??

This makes Texas oil rigs look outdated a hell, damn it's fancy in there

Get your turtle shell and strap fastened up.
