Have you ever been suddenly covered in some fluid on location? Share your photos

Working in heavy rain with the boots filled with water, mud-sprayed on the rig floor and yes, covered in cement slurry from head to toe … All happened to me.

… This happened to me in the pre-COVID 19 era and was captured in an image …

What about you? these events are common but rarely documented in pictures.

Few hours before …

Clean and fresh doing my pre-work checking the cement slurry

Share your picture for posterity !!

Hopping for a quick recovery of our industry

Cheers,

Following the loss of my job in 2016 after a 20 year long career at that time, I started to post in LinkedIn, a series of 'Cementing Challenges' to keep ours minds 'active' around our beloved topic of well Cementing. This interaction with our community and their reaction to the 'challenges' was a fruitful learning experience, but to be honest it wasn’t enough to fill the space this downturn has left by keeping me away from the 'action'. This inspired me to go further not abandoning my passion in Cementing, but to dedicate a web site to well cementing and helping people.

For more than 24 years, I have worked in oil well cementing, offering my services to some of the largest oil corporations in the world and committing myself to excellence. I have mastered my role, and in doing so, I have accrued a skill set that is extremely valuable to my fellow professionals. Eager to do whatever I can to help them, I have owned and operated Better Cementing for All since 2016.
Let me tell you what Better Cementing for All does and what it means. A resource for all oil industry professionals and for cementers both established and prospective, this is a non-profit resource that I established in order to do nothing but serve and make an impact on people who are looking to build careers for themselves in cementing.
From primary cementing to remedial cementing to plug cementing to post-job results, I do it all, and I am comfortable answering in-depth questions about each and every one of these topics. I also offer tools and tips for jobseekers, general self-development advice, and guidance for equipment choices. TO put it simply, this is the go-to spot for anyone who wants to know anything about oil well cementing.
The problem, however, is that covid-19 has made the structure of the website seem untenable. I am trying to juggle the work that I do and my non-profit initiatives and finding it all unhealthy and unsustainable. I want to keep Better Cementing for All up and running, but to do that, I need your help.
