THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
We really need an oil & gas sub forum.

We have a large number of oil & gas people on this board, and it would really be useful for us to have a common place to post oil & gas related stuff.

There have been quite a few threads relating to the energy industry recently, but it has been hard to find them and most of us miss them as they can only cycle in GD.

Thanks!

I agree. There is so much bullshit in the media that is untrue, any new forums we could access to help the spread of factual info would help. I'M IN!. 44

I agree with needing a sub forum. As someone that is in the industry the best thing that we can do is network with each other. A lot of opportunity in our industry is based on who and what we know about our jobs. And if we have a place to come and chat with each other it would be a great resource.

I agree. Its interesting to talk to people in other basins, fields, or jobs that we may not usually run into.

Count me in. With tens of thousands of jobs coming open in the oil industry, a sub forum would allow those of us who are active in the industry help those wanting to find industry employment.

Thanks for your consideration.

I have an article I'd like to place in the oil and gas sub forum. Instead I will place it in GD.

Thumbs up from me. I'm looking to get into the field. I need to get out of the house. I could use the money. Frankly, I could use the time away from my wife, and I know she could use the time away from me. No kids. The desk work isn't where my heart is. If a sub forum gets lots of extra info out there, I'll be on it every day.

I agree guys, I would love to see this sub forum happen. A lot more people are in the oil / gas industry then you think.
