In Pumps & Systems, we consider downstream as refineries, petrochem plants, etc. Upstream Pumping Solutions will cover drilling, completion, artificial lift and pressure pumping.

It seems there are many different opinions about where upstream starts. Take a look at how some industry professionals identify these: http://www.linkedin.com/groupAnswers?viewQuestionAndAnswers=&gid=2142378&discussionID=9637223&sik=1262104247497&t…

I heard something recently from a pump recruiting manager that was equally worrisome. Engineers just graduating from college are jumping from job to job after only three to six months of work. Motivated by a higher paycheck, these young engineers sometimes accummulate a resume of five to… Continue
