Well been to pa and its cold but send me your pay ch stub and it is sure pretty up in pa in the spring and summer count me in but first send me who what and how info

Maybe working on the rig he will make that much.

I think it is a pipe dream....waiting for any verifiable information of that amount of net pay.

At 400.00 a day i would work all summer long. Maybe even after the leaves turn color.

Im sure further information on this would be greatly appreciated by many!

I heard from a LOMA GG that he was going to PA as they pay $400 a day.

So that is my 2 cents worth.

When I traveled Hwy 181 going to San Antonio Monday, I saw a few rigs and also fracing sites along the Hwy above Karnes City. Are these all Marathon sites? Looks pretty busy in that area.

Go to drilling ahead it will show all rigs working they list all rigs state by state and go to tx they show drilling or riging down Marathon had four running last week

The main thing that dictates the need for a gate guard is the land owner and how the lease is structured. Because of the many ranches here in the southwest, and the ranchers desire to know who is on his property, most leases in TX, OK, LA, NM and some of CO require a gate guard. In WY and ND, it is mostly public lands and not many gate guards are required, but there are some on the ranches. I'm not sure how the leases are structured in PA and OH, but bet they don't worry about a gate guard so much up there.

Here's a question: All the gate guarding seems to be in Texas. Does anyone know about other states, like PA with the big shale drilling going on?
