Abstract

It is important to point out the challenges that are affecting the Permian Basin and offer some possible solutions. The lack of knowledge regarding the oilfield, long hours, demanding work, and extreme conditions may contribute to attrition. Offering some ideas and solutions may help companies and individuals retain and recruit individuals to the area. Forming mentorships for new employees, especially those from other countries, helps acclimate employees to the area. Communication is imperative in the oilfield because of safety and productivity. Many of these issues can begin with training provided through internships that have developed because of partnerships with companies and educators. This chapter explores these challenges and their solutions.
