Apparently they can’t even get people out to wells which were shut down to turn them on again due to a shortage of people who do that sort of thing.
Can’t even imagine what the wait time is on a brand new well.
- jonnycomputer 4y agoLabor shortages have been crazy everywhere.
- UncleEntity 4y agoPlus this is one of those industries where you know there’s no future so why even bother entering it.
- jonnycomputer 4y agoI've always been of the view that oil and coal were too valuable, too energy-dense a finite resource, to waste, but should be kept in reserve for if/when we really need that kind of energy density. On a local scale: I'd rather use solar on my rooftop, but don't mind having a diesel generator when the power goes out. Other uses for oil and coal besides. Coking coal for steel production, oil for plastics, etc.
