“A lonely historical marker sits on the side of FM 1960 outside of Humble, Texas. You would probably drive right past it.

The stories continue… another hour with Mr. Morris Fleming
https://alphaoiltools.com/                https://www.linkedin.com/company/alphaoiltools/
Alpha Oil Tools posted a “Happy Birthday” message and short video on their LinkedIn page that read:
“Happy 85th Birthday to a REAL legacy in our industry, Mr. Morris Fleming. Morris started working for Halliburton in 1960, was on his first frac job in 1966, and has made countless contributions to our industry in drilling, well completions, well service, downhole tools, plug and abandonment, and many, many others. His wisdom is only surpassed by his kindness and his friendship. He is always quick to share his knowledge to benefit others and we should know because Alpha Oil Tools is one of the biggest beneficiaries of them all!!! Thank you, Morris, and Happy Birthday!

After reading some of the comments, I knew that Mr. Fleming is exactly who Oilfield Talk wants to interview and hopefully listeners agree.
His amazing career started in the 1960’s and continues today.
He attended the 5th Course Halliburton ever put on for Drill Stem Testing & Special Tools on September 27th, 1969.
 
Mr. Carl Gay reached out and helped with the introductions… and I couldn’t get to Dallas fast enough… hope you enjoy our visit with Mr. Morris Fleming.

The Humble Museum originally opened as the Humble Bicentennial Museum in 1976, as an outgrowth of the City's U.S. Bicentennial Celebrations. The city built a museum building on Higgins Street, on the west side of the railroad tracks.
In the late 1980s, the museum purchased the old Centel Telephone building at 219 Main Street, on the east side of the railroad tracks. This building was damaged during Hurricane Harvey, forcing the museum to close in August 2017.
Starting in 2019, the City renovated the old band hall building at Charles Bender High School for the museum. The museum moved its collection into the new building in March 2020, just before the COVID quarantine began. After months of work building new displays, the new Humble Museum opened on November 14, 2020.

Ep024 - R I F - Reduction in Force & HiRE at www.LAworks.net

R I F or Reduction in Force is just another way to say you are / have been “Laid Off” where the end result is, you are Unemployed and without a Job.
This is what happened to me last Wednesday…
I got “The Call” we all dread on the 6th of March, 2024… after almost 27 years with the same company… ‘Your Services Are No Longer Required’.
Quite the Gut-Punch… and felt like my feet were swept right out from under me… I wasn’t expecting it. We knew people were going to be let go, but I had been told that I was being retained… and back to my previous position as “Float” or “Fill In” (110) wherever needed.   Didn’t end up working out that way.
In this episode I discuss my own personal reaction to being laid off and some of the things available through the Louisiana Workforce Commission – Rapid Response Team.
The state provides a comprehensive website at www.laworks.net where you can create your HiRE Account.  Here, it will walk you though step by step in creating a resume’ and getting it posted where employers can find it.
There are also good tools on HiRE to help you discover job trends in the state as well as up-and-coming events or assistance.  You can apply for ‘Unemployment’, research health insurance availability, and much more useful information.
What is going to happen to the “Oilfield Talk” podcast?
There will definitely be some changes in the future… I hope to continue to provide content every two weeks.  But this is a big change for me and my availability to be able to go and record others.  When working 28on X 28off… it affords you a lot of time off to go and do… plus a good income to support those activities.
In the future, the pay and time off will probably be less than working offshore which will force some changes and adjustments.
I will looking closely at recording phone conversations or online Teams / ZOOM video conferencing type software.
Not sure what the future holds… but  as Yogi Berra said “When you arrive at a fork in the road, take it”

Ep023 – BONUS – Kelly Tooker, 1st Interview – Director of Oil & Gas Technology and “Drone Master” at NMJC

This is was my first attempt to interview Mr. Kelly Tooker… but due to technical difficulties (memory card was full)… it stopped only 20 minutes into the interview and we didn’t know it… we kept talking for more than an hour.
A lot of great content was lost but we did our best to reproduce the interview that you heard in “Ep019 - NMJC - Hobbs NM “
Even though this is a short episode, Mr. Kelly keeps us informed and entertained…
 
Hope you enjoy this BONUS Episode!
