PLC Opportunity in Oil and Gas

This was sent to me by Jack L Johnson, one of the other hydraulic gurus. Helmerich and Payne is one of our customers. Read below and you will see there is a need for a PLC and motion control person. The Oil and Gas industry in putting a lot of emphasis on controls now.



Colleagues and Friends:

Attached , below, is some correspondence I have had with a client of a few years back regarding his need for an engineer. The correspondence I think is self-explanatory.

Helmerich and Payne Drilling is a Tulsa-based company that supplies equipment for the oil drilling industry. If you know of someone who would be interested, please contact DeWayne Speer directly. [email protected]

Looking forward to seeing you in Las Vegas in March!

Jack,

I am not so concerned with the engineering discipline (electrical, mechanical or even a really sharp computer science type); I am interested in their previous experience with programming PLC's and any previous work and experience with adaptive controllers. We are quite flexible with salary/rate at this point. The position can be either full-time employment or a contract basis.


I appreciate your help.

Ouch, how long has his signature being like that? Sorry for the disrespect. Some people (like me) like to be told when they have a little cream on the tip of their nose rather than it staying there for an hour during a meeting.

Don't suppose he would take a sparky too lol!

I don't see a problem.

They are pulling pipe out of the ground to change a drill bit. We have other customers that have got this process completely automated.

Thanks for the lead, Peter...:nodi::site:

For "Electrohdraulic Engineer", he probably meant that be an Electro-hydraulic Engineer
