In this month's column, Wayne Nash dishes out opinions, stories and plenty of advice.
A while back, I wrote that the drilling industry needs a school to help train drillers and bring the next generation up to speed. That piece caused me to get a lot of e-mail and quite a few phone calls. It seems I have missed or forgotten something.
Mr. Joe Jeauneau, an instructor at Southwest Mississippi State Junior College, informed me that at his school, there has been a two-year program for drillers in operation for years. He sent me a catalog and curriculum, and it looks like a good school. At present they have, if I remember right, 14 students presently enrolled. This is a good thing, and I'm going to give them all the help I can.
