Wayne Nash thinks it's time to do more to make sure there will be enough young blood to take over the drilling industry in the future.
Those of us who have been fortunate enough to spend our lives in the drilling industry often sit around trade shows and meetings bemoaning the fact not enough young people are coming into the industry. The way most of us see it, when we're gone, there won't be nearly enough young blood to take over. This will leave an industry with a long and proud history without a future, and the public without the most abundant, most secure water supply available.
Many of us have spent our time writing articles or giving seminars. A lot of the time, the seminars are little more than an hour-long advertisement for the presenter's product. It is time to do more.
