For one of our clients we are looking for roustabouts.
Roustabouts are employed by oil and gas drilling and well servicing contractors and by petroleum producing companies. A Roustabout may be part of the oil drilling teams or crews, or may be on location temporarily for special operations. The roustabout is commonly hired to ensure that the skilled personnel that run an expensive oil drilling rig are not distracted by peripheral tasks, ranging from any unskilled manual labor on the rig site like, cleaning up location, to cleaning threads, to digging trenches, to scraping and painting rig components.
A job as a Roustabout may include the following tasks and duties:
• assemble or repair oil field equipment using hand and power tools; • assist in slotting, welding and inserting casing screens; • assist with well development and pumping tests; • carry out minor maintenance and repairs, including lubrication; • clean equipment, drill and camp sites; • dig and clean mud pits and drains; • help move drilling rigs and equipment from site to site, set up in the new site and connect power cables or hoses for water and air supply; • help obtain drilling core samples; • perform other tasks as needed.
