About right, could be a few hundred more for a major operator offshore. Also they remain on the rig in between wells offshore.

Not always true, not all Company men are contracted, some work for the operator and have benefits through that company. Pretty much a 14/14 or similar set schedule though.

They have a lot of responsibility and are liable for any mishaps during the drilling process.

They are a representative of the operator (the lease holder) of the well and supervise the drilling contractors and service companies that are involved in the well development process.

This is true, but these company men lose that high day rate in the process. Ballpark 150k/year for early level company men who are direct employees of the operator.
