Today, I met a casing guy who lose one finger. He said he lose that finger 20 years ago while working as roughneck at the rig floor. He said, he was always offshore and he could not make it to see his dying parents. He just managed to see them at the grave during the funeral.

It makes me think twice before joining drilling contractor as rig crew.

rig crew's are among the highest paid laborers in the world. The highest position would be the driller which you can work your way up from a rough neck or roustabout. I don't know about Malaysia but in NZ the drillers there get about 250K NZD. In low pay sh!t hole Malaysia that is a ticket to a good pay.

C'mon! its 1 month on 1 month off. Get over it! If your friend is in Casing and in Malaysia, he is probably in Weatherford.
