False. Geologists are not the first to get let go. When prices go down the industry is forced to drill smarter, lower risk wells. Geologists are the driving force behind that approach. Middle management will get trimmed back before solid geologists and engineers.

Doesnt really happen. Tight sands and shale get fracked. Not tar sands.

Agreed that if you are an established geologist you should be able to survive in down time. Also true that geologists aren't pigeon holed into oil & gas and have other options. However there is no way to disguise the fact that in times of a shitty oil industry, there will be less geologists entering the work force.
