From what I understand of south Texas, they aren't slowing down drilling. They just aren't going horizontal. They're keeping the wells vertical for now and will produce as much as they can. When the price goes back up they'll set whip stocks and go horizontal and frac the shite out of it.

Soooo as a soon-to-be college grad I guess the internship I did with Schlumberger over winter break will not be resulting in a job like I was expecting.

because high oil prices led to a reason for companies to invest in something finally (shale production), and this led to the US becoming a net petro exporter? that has been the backbone of our economic recovery. that is why Texas has added more jobs since 2008 than every other state combined.
what other industry do you see emerging to replace petro?
more money in the pockets of consumers.. more money spent at businesses. less truck nuts. construction is booming in large areas of the country. consumer spending makes up roughly 2/3rds of our economy. more money in the pockets of consumers makes the actual backbone even stronger. let's drop taxes just a tiny bit.. time to rebuild americas infrastructure

Yes it will. It will last years. For four years companies have invented more fuel efficient vehicles while those Arabs drained us of cash via high gas prices

Cars have been getting more fuel efficient for 80 years

Right now most people are saying Florida / East Coast is about to boom. High rises from Miami to the Carolina's. Lot's of foreign money going to be invested because there isn't anywhere else to invest it. Not with any decent return.

There's construction booms in Seattle, Philly, Oakland, DC, Denver, and many other areas.
Not to mention all the chemical plants that are coming up in Louisiana.

Without a doubt. You can't throw a rock downtown without hitting a massive job site. Hell, the whole metro area is booming.

Awesome. I'm graduating in Construction Engineering Technology, but I had been banking on the SLB gig. I've got family that works for them and they make bank so naturally they swayed me to go O&G over everything.

I'm not happy about this by any means, but this will put a good amount of people back in the "regular" workforce.
I have been with 2 different companies about an hour apart in the last 5 years. BOTH lost guys to oilfield work and could never find decent replacements. Oilfield pay is too good. You can't compete with it as a small local business or as a larger regional business.
Now we'll finally have some decent help

2. "Sin products" is an actual term. Sin Tax
quote:I never knew that either, but hey, the more you know.
A sin tax is a kind of sumptuary tax: a tax specifically levied on certain generally socially proscribed goods and services, for example alcohol and tobacco, candies, drugs, soft drinks, fast foods, coffee, and gambling.
