This gripping documentary series follows life on the oil rigs of west Texas. In this episode, Viking’s third well is put in jeopardy when poisonous water spews out of the ground. The Longhorn hits a pocket of potentially explosive gas. And Big Dog driller Justin loses patience with underling Derek once again.
As the 50-day window to drill three wells draws to a close, the Viking rig leads the pack. The platform is making excellent progress on its third well, and veteran driller Wayne hopes that his hard-working boys will be promoted from the evening shift to the daylight slot. Of the three eight-hour shifts that comprise an oil rig’s working day, the daylight stint is the most prestigious.
