About this listen
What's truly "spooky" this Halloween? The unprecedented demand for drilling professionals! In Episode 3 of The Drillercast, hosts Brock and Dave discuss the industry's workforce "nightmare", from record-breaking apprentice classes to new legislative support.
Fitting the holiday, they analyze the drilling inaccuracies in the blockbuster Armageddon. While the movie's physics are a "nightmare", the hosts agree with its core premise: it's easier to teach a driller to be an astronaut than an astronaut to be a driller.
Why? Because drilling is more than a procedure; it's a "science and an art", requiring microsecond adjustments and a feel that takes years to develop. Listen to the full episode to hear why the skills of a driller are truly out of this world.
