That would make the testing machine Halliburton? I can see that.

Into the 60s, with Herman Brown’s health suffering, the company’s future seemed uncertain. Brown & Root was approached by Halliburton Company, an oilfield services business that bought companies with expertise in the oil and gas field. The Halliburton deal was finalized shortly after Brown’s death in 1962.

side note:

People also ask
How many years of oil is left in the world?
Oil. Globally, we currently consume the equivalent of over 11 billion tonnes of oil from fossil fuels every year. Crude oil reserves are vanishing at a rate of more than 4 billion tonnes a year – so if we carry on as we are, our known oil deposits could run out in just over 53 years.

I noticed you mention Halliburton often,they seem to show up on shut down & turnarounds at the local refineries in the LA area.They seem to do a lot of cleaning,the inside of vessels & pipe. They replaced the semi skilled union workers like Carpenters & Laborers,not so much the other crafts with a higher skill set. with that cheap labor soon they will have all the work.

They(edit: "Oil Industry") have their own set of DOT regulations as well.

I believe it was in the 70's when they touted they had more rubber tired vehicles on the road then the US Govt.

I'll be dead by then.

Hopefully reincarnation isn't real...

But seriously, I don't think people realize how many products are made from petroleum.
Future generations will wonder why we wasted so much, so fast.

Virtually anything that can be made from petroleum can be made from hemp. Considering that future generations will wonder why we hesitated and fucked around with petroleum for so long.

Semi skilled union workers, lmao. I'm a Union Carpenter, highly skilled like my fellows. Lower rates of injury and completion of jobs so complicated that only Union tradesmen can do them. Cheap is what's desired more even than human life. Don't think for a minute that the Union makes us better, it's one aspect. It's the training we get that is unparalleled in the industry that gives us an advantage.

In the construction trades Union Carpenters are considered semi skilled,they make about 25% less than other union trades. They are easily replaced by $15 per hour non union workers.

How long you been an expert on construction? My last pay was $75.00 an hour in pocket. Also superintendent work goes out to carpenters at least 75% of the time, with iron workers and Masons mostly making up the rest. There's no building, home or bridge without a carpenter. You will never replace me or anyone like me with a $15 an hour man. Lmao.

Are you reporting wage info from your home town Stuggleville?

Geographical Considerations


In 2012, the New York City District Council of Carpenters signed a five-year deal with one of its major employers raising compensation in wages and benefits to $99.16 per hour for its 25,000 members, over $200,000 annually for a full-time worker. That deal places union members in the highest percentiles of carpenter earnings. Looking at annual average wages across the country, Hawaii and Alaska rank first and second, with $67,650 and $63,770 respectively, according to the BLS. The Hanford-Corcoran, California, metropolitan area leads U.S. cities with an annual average wage of $88,890.

Evaluating only union carpenter job listings, career information website CareerBliss reported an average salary of $51,000 between 2009 and 2011. The BLS reports that the top 10 percent of carpenters earn over $73,100 annually, or greater than $35.14 per hour, compared to a national average of $21.62 hourly. Wages rise with experience, so apprentices earn less than journey workers, and those with experience in a number of carpentry areas may qualify for higher pay.

I never said you could build a house or a bridge without a carpenter. I work out of LA the only jobs that employ union carpenters are prevailing wage jobs,most big jobs hire nonunion carpenters for $15 to $20 per hour no benefits. A carpenter is a semi skilled job that is easy to replace.
