West Virginia? I heard of guys getting around 50 an hour around here. Well were abouts in West Virginia?

Alot of my work is in WV and we get 35-41 an hour plus 15 tax free for rig and another 9 tax free for perdiem. This is non-union with a very respected company that always has work for us. They have 24 rig welders and paid health insurance and profit sharing. Depending on how many different cards or certs you have your hourly rate is 35 upto 41.

Cole it's hard to tell the futue but after years of being in this bussiness and going thru the slow time it usually does always has in the past anyway but it's like i told you in another post dont just focus on pipelining or oil field work broaden your horizons and go for anything that needs to be done and get your name out there if you have a rig hustle it and the rest wil fall into place

Cactus- the rate should stay the same as what you were getting in Brady.
