glad I am in automation. I couldnt read the whole article but I dont think automation will have that great of an effect on field level jobs. Most operators are using automation in some form or fashion and operations is already running pretty lean. Automation can help optimize a field but there will always be a need for manual labor until machines can do the job sufficiently.
People that are paid big money to analyze data better watch out though. Modeling and Big Data may replace or give the opportunity to cut back on people like Petroleum/Reservoir Engineers. Even programmers and such may be replaced once AI that can write code on the fly gets better.

Thank you. 
I thought that it was all pretty much that way already (with automation). I mean, you still need physical bodies out there so you're not getting rid of the entire field.

I was just playing with them in the beginning and then saw how flustered they got. That’s some insecure baws. I don’t really want you baws to lose your jobs with families to feed and what not.

Well of course, just less of them. They're going to pretty much try to Warehouse labor and then send it out when needed instead of fully staffing each well at all times.

What the hell are y'all hung up on price for? This article has nothing to do with price? Can you not read or are you just too ignorant to not read it and then comment anyway?
Let them act like they know what’s going on. It shows their ignorance.
I wonder if they know what actually happens in the oilfield today (predominantly land) that makes it so roughnecks might not be needed as much as in the past.
And I’m willing to wager that the authors of this article don’t either.

Great! Get the cost down on drilling. Ive got land interest in Kansas and La waiting for a rig.
Gotta get those TMS wells closer to the 10mm mark

it’s a real good thing that multi billion dollar O&G corporations in the US aren’t run by good ol’ oil baws like the OT thinks. I better get out of Houston quick, sounds like from the way these guys are forecasting it’ll be Detroit by 2020

I’m in agreement but while you typed that, Jim Bob Moffett may or may not have dropped a billion dollars on a speculative play.

Should have said programmer for Microsoft on the Windows team, but yes, serious.
Who said he makes more? One day I’m sure he will, and he’s earned it. However, he’s still a nerd.
