I'll piggyback off of this thread if I can, so we don't have an entire first page of o/g posts
.
I graduated in 2011 with a communication degree, but I'm coming up on about 8 months with my current position (communications/HR) and it's clear to me that I can't stand bring stuck in a cubicle all day. I've started exploring my options in the o/g industry and I've run into a few questions that hopefully someone can help me out with:
- For an entry level field position, is it viable to live in a completely different city from where the oil field is? My girlfriend has one more year of school left before she graduates with her masters and she already has a nice gig lined up in DFW. If possible, I would like to be able to work at one location and drive/fly back to dfw to live when I'm off.
- Most of the mud logging positions I've seen require some field experience or a geology degree. Are there entry-level mud logging positions out there for people with no technical background?
Thanks for any help!
