2 G150's based at EFD. Fly almost daily to some flavor of EFD-MAF-GJT-EVW-4V0-FMN plus others back to EFD.
That's all I know about them.

I see them at Farmpit often, never get a chance to talk to them as I'm usually there picking up or dropping off someone for my current employer.

I'll say this, the oil companies here in Alaska are VERY good to get on with. Very good benefits, pay, equipment brand new, etc...

If I may suggest, AVOID Oilfield Service companies (Halliburton, Schlumberger, BakerHughes, Weatherford) if either an Exploration/Production (Chesapeake, Oxy, Billiton, etc) or an integrated/major (ExxonMobil, Shell, BP) is willing to hire.

As a rule, the service companies are the regionals of the oilfield, and are in a race to the bottom with benefits, work rules, etc.

Like I'm seriously considering leaving my $100k+ corporate job with one of the service companies to fly for a regional, and I have a fairly high BS tolerance, bad.

I know nothing about how C operates. I know someone who works for a provider in Houston and he is always gone.

As big as Houston is, it is not a hotbed for corporate jobs.

I'm based out of the Casper, WY office, but spent less than 30 days in Wyoming in 2013.

Our corporate pilots have about the same time away from their home base in Houston. (I'm not longer a pilot with the company, they eliminated my position less than a week after I bought my house in WY, I'm now an engineer for them since I was stuck there with a house I just bought)
