Worked as a Solids Control Tech for Clean Harbors in Canada for 1.5 years. Forget exactly what I made but it was more than $19/hr. If you're sitting in with a rig expect 12 hour shifts day or night. Other times it was shop work 8 hr days but on call for your 14 days . More than a few times I had just crawled into bed to receive a call to go and fix a problem at a rig 3 to 4 hours away. The not knowing where you might end up kinda sucked.
Someone told me if I wished to work in the oilfield they recommended solid controls. How is the pay and hours per week? I don't mind long hours and hard work. I have a college degree and learn very quickly
so solids control is what the darrick hand usually would do, its been a few years sence i was on a rig lol, things have changed all from what Im seeing, just wish companys would drop testing for THC.
Very useful video
