I am one of the few women that work out on the oil rigs. I live on location for most of the well and come across some pretty amazing things. This blog tells my stories about what it is like being female in a male dominated occupation.
I am "Rockin the Bakken" and "Frackin the Forks"!

This is neat-O burrit-O!
"Mystery city caught on camera from space revealed to be massive Midwest oil field. As the camera hovers hundreds of miles above the earth, major cities can be seen by identifying the patches of light. In once particular stretch of video, several major Midwest cities like Bismarck , Sioux Falls, and Minneapolis can be seen. Ken Paulman noticed something else, another massive city to the west that he couldn't identify, brightly lit as the camera passed over. It's the lights from the Bakken oil field in North Dakota. The Bakken is reportedly one of the largest oil fields in the world, covering about 200,000 square miles in North Dakota, Montana, and Canada."
BAD IDEA
I worked for 44 days straight, 12 hour shifts, had 6 days off, and am now back at it. I have been working for 15 days and today I just couldn't take it anymore! I decided to paint my toenails and fingernails. As I was painting, the MWD sat down on the couch beside me in our work shack. A few minutes later, he was sawing logs. I looked at the directional driller and he nodded his head. It was time to pull the ultimate Dena prank! I looked back at the sleeping MWD and both of his hands were exposed. I started painting a light pink color on each of his nails ever so lightly so he didn't wake up. I had to stop every few seconds to let out a giggle. I got all 10 done and what a great feeling! A few minutes later, he woke up. He proceeded to send out all of his reports on the computer, cook breakfast, and text on his phone for about an hour without noticing the pink nail polish. Let's just say, when he finally noticed...there was hell to pay! I was on the alert! Nothing was going to get by me. I reach for my coffee cup, and what do you know...he has spiked my coffee. Not with alcohol, but with HOT SAUCE! Dena pranks=BAD IDEA!
