business as usual as far as i can tell. i don't see any rigs "stacking". lots of damaged platforms, mostly "satellite" platforms, that should require rental equipment such as compressors, welding machines, cutting rigs, tuggers, etc. I think most of these jobs will start this summer, it's usually too rough in the winter for these type jobs. but, it doesn't always stop them.
i've been here awhile, possibly being too patient, but i feel like this is my chance to get in on the ground floor of one of these big company's i see daily. so i'll be here for awhile longer. i picked up some .27's the other day.
