In Stoneburg, Texas a new oil well is being drilled. 24/7 the machine works, manned by a crew who live and work on the site. "Production Companies" are specialized and highly mechanized teams of specialists with a mobile gear that can drill anywhere.
Everything you see here is set up surprisingly quickly, and can be taken down and moved to the next job.
Snapshots from my Texas travels for my new job.
