Who doesn’t like trivia?  Here’s some handy numbers for people working in the oil & gas industry, including a subtle nod to e-frac:

$8 million:  Annual revenues generated by a big land drilling rig in Texas

25,000:  Number of volts required for a spark to jump 1 inch in air

2.5 cents:  Change in the price of gasoline for every $1 change in the price of oil

$7 million: Annual revenues generated by a big coiled tubing unit in New Mexico

$1,200:  Annual revenues generated by one hydraulic horsepower on a big frac spread 

$400:  Annual revenues generated by one hydraulic horsepower on a small frac spread

50:  Number of gallons of ethanol one ton of corn will make

$3 million:  Annual revenues generated by a cement pump truck in the Rockies

6.5:  At terminal velocity the number of seconds required to fall 1,000 feet

We tossed in the last one for those frustrated by the seemingly irrational cycles of the industry.
