Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).
$200 oil?

Bruh I’ve already told the wife we are buying a couple thousand shares of XOM when the Dims tank everything by not lifting the debt ceiling (

Damn, thats a lot of equipment. So many questions. Is that a single well? How many barrells per day does that produce? Heavy crude?
I know nothing so explain it to me like im 5.

Same here… The last five years haven’t been great for me. The last one almost took me completely out.

Sorry got busy right after you posted this.
This is 3 wells. There are a total of 11 on this pad. (~5 acres surface area) I am not sure how much it produces, but each well cost ~4 mil to drill/complete/get online. Obviously they making money since they are drilling this place like a pin cushion.
Here is another picture I took of the tank farm. Quite impressive in person.
How many people work at a site like that once its operational?

It is fully automated. 1 guy can check on several of them daily, just to make sure everything is reading the correct levels.
**if the pipelines are in place and operational. Otherwise truckers will have to haul off all the water and oil.
