What drilling challenge are you solving next?

Are you hands-on, safety-minded, and eager to grow in the downhole motor space? We're looking for someone ready to learn the ropes and become a key part of our Motor Shop team.

What you'll be doing:
Working alongside our senior technicians, you'll help tear down and build downhole mud motors, learn to identify parts by name and number, and get comfortable with the tools of the trade like micrometers, calipers, stator measuring devices, and Torque Master. You'll safely operate the overhead crane, load and unload inspection racks and trucks, and paint and stencil tools to a clean, professional standard. Along the way, you'll conduct failure analysis, complete Job Safety Analyses, keep your work area safe and organized, and even help train Level 1 technicians.

What we're looking for:

High school diploma or GED (relevant experience and training also considered)
Forklift & Crane certified, plus First Aid, CPR, AED, and OSHA 10 (or willing to obtain)
A quick learner who adapts well to new challenges
Growing knowledge of mud motors and measuring tools (Vector Gages, micrometers, stator/rotor measurement)
Comfortable with Microsoft Office and in-house systems (Great Plains, Trax, CAPEX)
Strong communicator who takes safety seriously

The realities of the role:
This is physical, rewarding work. You'll be on your feet up to 12 hours a shift, occasionally lifting up to 50 lbs, in a loud environment with possible temperature extremes. The role requires 24/7 on-call availability and around 10% travel.

If you're ready to build a career in the field and grow with a team that values safety and craftsmanship, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today: https://prodirectional.com/about/careers/

The right data at the right time changes the outcome of a well.

ProDirectional's in-house software engineers build proprietary systems that capture performance data across our entire MWD and drilling motor fleet. They track how every tool is used, what maintenance it's had, and when it should be serviced or retired.

Those same systems power our Remote Operations Center, where engineers monitor real-time downhole and surface data to spot trends, catch anomalies, and support the field before small issues become NPT.

Live telemetry plus historical run data means a closed loop. Neither our teams nor our clients are ever operating blind.

Recently, our Senior Directional Drilling Supervisor, Chad Nordtvedt, had the opportunity to share his knowledge with a group of operator interns during a hands on session focused on Measurement While Drilling (MWD) tools.

Anyone can explain what an MWD tool does. Experience is what teaches you how to interpret the data, solve problems, and make the right decisions when every second counts.

That kind of knowledge cannot be found in a textbook. It comes from years in the field and from professionals who are passionate about sharing what they have learned.

It is always rewarding to see experienced leaders invest in the next generation of our industry. Every conversation, every question, and every lesson helps build stronger, safer, and more capable drilling teams.

A sincere thank you to Chad for taking the time to share his expertise and support the development of future drilling professionals. We also appreciate the opportunity to work with our customer in helping provide meaningful learning experiences for their interns.

Because great wells are built by great people, and great people are developed through knowledge, experience, and mentorship.

Another great Clay Shoot is in the books.
