Some of the job titles for oil and gas extraction workers include Roustabouts, Service Unit Operators, Derrick Operators, Riggers, and Helpers. We've identified many transitional occupations, each with a very high compatibility rating, to help you easily identify them and help your job-seekers be successful in their search during these tough times.
