From the famous oilpatch that spread from West Texas to New Mexico,
Alaska, China, and other locales, Hubert H. Hays (1935-2005)
drilled for oil. He drilled for fifty years-and he was good at it.
He knew what negative 70 degrees does to casing and drill pipe. He
knew what 500 degrees downhole does to affect drilling. He set
records drilling gas wells and never had a blowout. Hays had a
worldwide reputation that preceded him, and he probably drilled as
many wells as any other man during his time. But alongside learning
the ins and outs needed for such a successful five-decade career in
oil, Hays came to know the eclectic cast of roughnecks that can
make up a good crew. He heard about the colorful lives they led and
the myriad paths oilmen take. Driller, compiled from notes and
recordings by his wife Catherine and edited by Russ McAfee, tells
the story of Hays's life in oil: the ups and downs, the wisdom and
the difficulty of the center of our energy needs. Readers will come
away with invaluable technical knowledge, colorful stories, and a
clear-eyed sense of the real oilfield seen by the men who plumb the
earth for energy.
