I work for an American, Houston based, Independent Oil Company Anadarko Petroleum (no refining or marketing, nothing down stream).
Currently we are producing 260,000 barrels a day. We have two rigs drilling development and exploration wells (+-3,400 meters).

I am the materials / logistics manager for the operation, our current inventory of stock is valued at $70,000,000. Obtaining and planning for material and equipment delivers +-6 months, is a challenge indeed.

I spend every other month on the job and enjoy Florida and my toy 6 months a year – but the six months I am home are quality months.
