Candidates for filling available Roughneck job openings must have had some previous experience in the oil drilling field as a Roustabout, either on or offshore.

1. Must be 18+ years or older (21+ in some cases)
2. Must be able to pass a physical exam

The above PLUS the following qualifications required to apply as a Roughneck:
1. Previous experience working on an oil rig as a Roustabout, Deck Hand, or Maintenance Crew
