Data are provided separately, where possible, for oil and gas field operations and for contract drilling establishments. A similar survey was conducted in June 1982. Separate releases were issued earlier for 10 regions of in dustry concentration. Copies of these reports are available from the Bureau or any of its regional offices. The study was conducted in the Bureau’s Office of Com pensation and Working Conditions. Jonathan W. Kelinson of the Division of Occupational Pay and Employee Benefit https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Levels analyzed the survey findings and prepared this bulle tin. The Bureau’s field representatives obtained the data through personal visits to a probability-based sample of es tablishments within the scope of the survey. Fieldwork for the survey was directed by the Bureau’s Assistant Regional Commissioners for Operations. Other industry wage survey reports are listed at the end of this bulletin, along with information on how to obtain copies.

Occupational descriptions............................................................................................................................................. 50 https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Oil and Gas Extraction, June 1988 Earnings age increases were well pullers (23 percent) and pumpers (18 percent). In general, occupations at the higher end of the industries’ pay scales recorded higher average increases than the lower paid occupations. During the 1982-88 peri od, the wage and salary component of the Bureau’s Employ ment Cost Index for nonmanufacturing industries recorded a 28.7-percent increase. These wage changes in oil and gas extraction accompa nied dramatic employment declines. Production worker em ployment dropped 44 percent, declining in 9 of the 10 regions studied. Declines ranged from 52 percent in Oklahoma to 15 percent in the Great Lakes States; employment in the Border States, however, grew by 2 percent. In Texas, which accounted for about one-third of the workers in each sur vey, production worker employment declined by 50 percent over the 6-year period. The losses generally were more sig nificant among contract drillers than among field operators (text table 1). According to the Bureau’s monthly employ ment and earnings series, most of the decline in production employment in the Nation’s oil and gas extraction industries occurred between 1985 and 1986, when the price of oil col lapsed in world markets.3 The 13 jobs, selected to represent the wage structure and skill range of the industries’ production workers, accounted for three-fourths of the 68,658 production employees esti mated to be within the scope of the survey. These jobs ac counted for two-thirds of the production work force in field Gasplant operators, who prepare natural gas for use as fuel, had average earnings of $14.19 an hour in June 1988, and were the highest paid among the 13 jobs studied in the oil and gas extraction industries. Averages for the other 12 oc cupations ranged from $8.29 an hour for rotary floor work ers, who assist in drilling operations, to $14.12 an hour for maintenance mechanics (table l).1 Among the geographic regions studied separately, occupational pay generally was highest in California and lowest in the Middle Atlantic and Border States regions. The survey included two types of establishments or oper ations: 1) those operating oil and gas field properties (field operations), and 2) those engaged in drilling oil and gas wells for others on a contract or fee basis (contract drillers). Field operations, which accounted for three-fifths of the produc tion employment, included exploration, drilling and equip ping of wells, operation of separators, and all other activities required to prepare oil and gas for shipment from the produc ing property. Since June 1982, when the Bureau conducted a similar sur vey, average hourly earnings increased from 6 to 23 per cent for 9 of the 13 jobs, and decreased from 12 to 18 percent for the other 4 jobs—derrick operators, rotary drillers, ro tary floor workers, and motor operators. (Unlike the earlier survey, the 1988 study included contract drillers employing fewer than 50 workers.2 These smaller contractors were ex cluded from the data used to make year-to-year comparisons of earnings and employment.) Those having the highest aver Text table 1.

Earnings data exclude premium pay for overtime, for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts; and, where applicable, for offshore work. See appendix B for occupational descriptions. 2 In June 1988, contract drillers with fewer than 50 workers employed almost 4,000 production workers, or about 6 percent of the industries’ work force. For a detailed account of the 1982 survey, see Industry Wage Sur vey: Oil and Gas Extraction, June 1982, Bulletin 2193. 3 For information on June production worker employment in the oil and gas extraction industries, see Employment and Earnings, September 1982; Supplement to Employment and Earnings, July 1987; Employment and Earn ings, September 1987; and Employment and Earnings, September 1988.

In field operations, average earnings ranged from $8.73 an hour for rotary floor workers to $14.99 an hour for main tenance electricians (table 2). Pumpers, numerically the larg est occupation studied in this industry, averaged $13.16 an hour. In contract drilling, occupational average earnings ranged from $7.27 for roustabouts to $10.85 for rotary drillers (ta ble 3). Rotary floor workers (roughnecks), the largest con tract drilling job studied, averaged $8.26 an hour. Workers in field operations recorded higher average pay than their contract drilling counterparts in 9 of 10 occupa tions for which comparisons could be made. The pay ad vantages ranged from 4 percent for motor operators ($8.98 compared to $8.63) to 63 percent for roustabouts, who per form a variety of tasks ($11.83 compared to $7.27). Typi cally, however, the pay advantage in favor of contract drillers was between 30 and 45 percent, a range which generally held when comparisons were limited to individual regions. Ex ceptions included the Great Lakes region, where contract der rick operators and contract drillers averaged 3 and 16 percent, respectively, more than their counterparts in field operations. In the Midcontinent region, the pay advantage for contract welders was 35 percent, while pumpers in both industries averaged about the same rate of pay. Occupational pay relationships varied widely among the regions studied separately. For example, contract rotary drillers in Louisiana averaged 21 percent more than those in the Border States region ($11.52 compared to $9.52), but the relationship was reversed for contract welders ($9.58-$9.31). Occupational pay relationships also varied within regions. Wage data are presented separately, where possible, for land-based (onshore) and offshore workers. In field opera tions, where about four-fifths or more of the workers in each occupation were land based, offshore workers had higher average pay in all six of the jobs permitting comparison (ta ble 2). The pay advantage for offshore rotary drillers was 48 percent; the corresponding advantage for the other five occupations was between 2 and 13 percent. Similarly, land-based workers among contract drillers ac counted for about four-fifths or more of the workers in 6 of the 11 occupations (table 3). In the seven jobs that could be compared, offshore workers held a pay advantage in six, with differentials ranging from 5 percent for electricians and mechanics to 18 percent for rotary drillers. Land-based welders, in contrast, had an 11-percent edge on their off shore counterparts ($10.33 compared to $9.34). Earnings of workers in the individual occupations spanned a broad range, but when examined on a regional basis, large proportions of workers often clustered within narrow pay bands (tables 4 and 7-16). For example, four-fifths of the mechanics and three-fifths of the welders in California oil and gas extraction earned between $15 and $15.50 an hour. Such concentrations of workers partly reflect the prevalence https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis of single-rate pay systems for a given job. Single-rate pay systems covered about four-fifths of the industries’ employ ment, and nearly all of the workers in California. Benefits Paid holiday provisions—most commonly 10 days annually—were provided to nearly three-fourths of the production workers. Nearly all workers on oil and gas field properties received paid holidays, compared with one-third in contract drilling operations, where 1 or 2 days per year were most common (table 21). Holiday provisions varied by region, as well as by industry. Virtually all workers in oil and gas field operations could receive paid vacations after qualifying periods of service. Typical provisions were 2 weeks of pay after 1 year of serv ice, 3 weeks after 5 years, 4 weeks after 10 years, 5 weeks after 20 years, and 6 weeks after 30 or more years of serv ice (table 22). In the contract drilling industry, vacation pro visions were reported for almost two-fifths of the production workers. Provisions generally were 1 or 2 weeks of vaca tion pay after 1 year of service, 2 weeks after 2 years, and 2 or 3 weeks after 5 or more years of service. Life insurance and hospitalization, surgical, and medical coverage were provided to nearly all production workers in oil and gas field operations, and to about nine-tenths of those in contract drilling (table 23). Employers in both industries provided accidental death and dismemberment insurance to three-fourths of the workers. Short-term protection against lost income through insurance or sick leave applied to seveneighths of the workers in field operations and to three-eighths in contract drilling. One-half of the workers in field opera tions were covered by long-term disability insurance and onefifth were in contract drilling. Health maintenance organi zation (HMO) membership was available to about three-tenths of field operations workers nationwide; and to less than onetenth of those in contract drilling. Among field operations, hmo’s were most prevalent in California (nearly half of the workers), and in Louisiana and Texas (about two-fifths). Health plan participation by employees, as opposed to avail ability of plans, also was studied for the first time in this industry (table 24). Retirement pension plans, typically financed entirely by employers, covered slightly over four-fifths of the field oper ations workers and one-third of the contract drillers. Retire ment severance plans (one or more lump-sum payments upon retirement) applied to one-third of those in field operations and to one-tenth of the contract drilling employees. None of these severance plans were paid entirely by employers. Funeral leave and jury-duty pay applied to nearly all work ers in field operations and to three-tenths and one-third of the work force, respectively, in contract drilling (table 25). Severance pay for loss of jobs due to technological change or closedown was available to one-half of the field opera tions workers and to one-eighth of those in contract drill ing. Employee savings and thrift plans to which employers 2 Work schedules of 40 hours per week for land-based work ers were in effect for seven-eighths of the field operations workers (table 18).4 Nearly all of the remaining workers had longer schedules, typically between 40 and 50 hours. For land-based contract drilling workers, three-fifths of the work force operated under fixed weekly schedules; however, these schedules varied both within and among the regions. Twofifths of the contract drilling workers had variable workweeks where no fixed weekly schedule prevailed, or the hours rou tinely varied from week to week. The use of variable work week schedules among contract drillers varied by region, from less than 5 percent of the workers in the Middle Atlan tic region to 87 percent of those in California. Operations with formal provisions for second- and thirdshift work employed over two-thirds of the workers in both oil and gas extraction industries (table 19). At the time of the survey, one-eighth of the field operations workers actu ally were employed on second shifts and slightly less than one-tenth were on third shifts (table 20). Most commonly, these workers received 50 cents an hour above day-shift rates for second shifts and $1 for third shifts. Among contract drillers, about one-fifth of the workers were on each late shift, but none in the survey’s sample received premium rates for such work. Establishments operating under labor-management agree ments employed about 30 percent of the field operations work ers and less than 5 percent of the contract drilling work force. Among field operations, union representation ranged from 70 percent m California to 9 percent in the Mountain States but generally fell between 20 and 30 percent. Collective bar gaining agreements typically were with single-establishment, independent unions (those not affiliated with the afl-CIO), although the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers International Union (AFL-CIO) also was prominent. contribute money beyond administrative costs covered threefifths of field operations workers and one-fourth of the con tract drilling workers. No formal provisions for automatic cost-of-living adjustments were found in the operations studied. industry characteristics The study covered operations in two industries primarily engaged in extracting oil and gas: Those engaged in crude petroleum and natural gas field production (field operations), and those drilling oil and gas wells for others, on a contract, fee, or similar basis (contract drillers). Oil and gas field oper ators with fewer than 8 workers and contract drillers with fewer than 20 were excluded from the survey. The 1,485 operations within the scope of the survey em ployed 68,658 nonsupervisory production and related work ers in June 1988. Establishments primarily engaged in oper ating oil field properties accounted for three-fifths of the to tal production work force. Contract drillers employed the other two-fifths. Texas recorded the largest share of employ ment in both industries—three-tenths of the 41,362 produc tion workers in field operations and just over one-third of the 27,296 workers in contract drilling. Louisiana, next in employment, accounted for one-fifth and one-fourth of the workers, respectively. Most of the other regions employed 10 percent or less of the workers in each industry (table A-l). Virtually all production workers were paid time rates, typi cally under formal plans providing single rates for specified occupations (table 17). Range-of-rate plans applied to near ly one-fifth of the field operations workers, and individual rates—based on the workers’ qualifications—applied to less than one-tenth. In contract drilling, fewer than one-tenth of the workers were compensated under a range-of-rate or in dividual determination pay plan. https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis 4 Information on work schedules of offshore workers was not collected. 3 Table 1.

Scope and Method of Survey Scope of survey The survey included establishments primarily engaged in operating oil and gas field properties and those chiefly en gaged in drilling wells for oil and gas field operations on a contract, fee, or similar basis (industries 1311 and 1381, respectively, as defined in the 1972 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, prepared by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget). Separate auxiliary units, such as central offices, were excluded. Establishments studied were selected from those employ ing 8 workers or more in operating oil and gas field proper ties, and 20 workers or more in contract drilling at the time of reference of the data used in compiling the universe lists. Table A-l shows the number of establishments and workers estimated to be within the scope of the survey, as well as the number actually studied by the Bureau. position of the industry’s labor force, rather than as precise measures of employment. Occupational classification Occupational classification was based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of interestablish ment and interarea variations in duties within the same job. (See appendix B for these descriptions.) The criteria for selec tion of the occupations were: The number of workers in the occupation; the usefulness of the data in wage and salary ad ministration and in collective bargaining; and appropriate representation of the entire wage structure in the industries. Supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, and part-time, handicapped, temporary, and probationary work ers were not reported in the data for selected occupations. Method of study Wage data Data were obtained by personal visits of the Bureau’s field representatives to a probability-based sample of establish ments within the scope of the survey. To obtain appropriate accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than of small establishments was studied. In combining the data, each establishment was given an appropriate weight. All es timates are presented, therefore, as relating to all establish ments in each of the industries, excluding only those below the minimum size at the time of reference of the universe Information on wages relates to straight-time hourly earn ings, excluding premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts; and, where applicable, for offshore work. Incentive payments, such as those result ing from piecework or production bonus systems, and costof-living pay increases (but not bonuses) were included as part of the workers’ regular pay. Excluded are performance bonuses and lump-sum payments of the type negotiated in the auto and aerospace industries, as well as profit-sharing payments, attendance bonuses, Christmas or yearend bonuses, and other nonproduction bonuses. Average (mean) hourly rates or earnings for each occu pation were calculated by weighting each rate (or hourly earn ings) by the number of workers receiving the rate, totaling, and dividing by the number of individuals. The hourly earn ings of salaried workers, if any, were obtained by dividing straight-time salary by the normal (or standard) hours to which the salary corresponds. The median designates position; that is, one-half of the em ployees surveyed received the same as or more than this rate and one-half received the same as or less. The middle range is defined by two rates of pay such that one-fourth of the employees earned the same as or less than the lower of these rates and one-fourth earned the same as or more than the data. Establishment definition An establishment, for purposes of this study, includes all oil and gas field activities of an operating company or a con tract driller, in the wage area for which separate data are presented. For areas including two or more States, such as the Great Lakes region, activities which cross State lines were counted within the geographic boundaries of each State rather than combined into one unit.

Includes data for Western Pennsylvania shown separately. 7 Includes data for Oklahoma shown separately. Atlantic—New Jersey, Pennsylvania—Adams, https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis _ 47 Tabulations of paid sick leave plans are limited to formal plans2 which provide full pay or a portion of the worker’s pay during absence from work because of illness; informal arrangements have been omitted. Separate tabulations are provided for (1) plans which provide full pay and no wait ing period, and (2) plans providing either partial pay or a waiting period. Long-term disability insurance plans provide payments to totally disabled employees upon the expiration of sick leave, sickness and accident insurance, or both, or after a speci fied period of disability (typically 6 months). Payments are made until the end of disability, a maximum age, or eligi bility for retirement benefits. Payments may be at full or par tial pay, but are almost always reduced by Social Security, workers’ compensation, and private pension benefits paya ble to the disabled employee. Hospitalization, surgical, and medical insurance refers to plans providing for complete or partial payment for hospital room charges, inpatient surgery, and doctors’ fees. These plans typically cover other expenses, such as outpatient sur gery and prescription drugs, and may be underwritten by a commercial insurance company or a nonprofit organization, or they may be a form of self-insurance. A health maintenance organization (HMO) provides com prehensive health care services to its members for fixed peri odic payments rather than indemnification or reimbursement for medical, surgical, and hospital expenses. Dental insurance covers routine dental work, such as fill ings, extractions, and X-rays. Excluded are plans which cover only oral surgery or accidental injury. Vision care covers routine eye examinations and eyeglass es. Excluded are plans which cover only certain kinds of sur gery or care required as a result of an accident. Hearing-care plans provide at least partial payment for hearing examinations, hearing aids, or both. Scheduled weekly hours Data on weekly hours refer to the predominant work sched ule for full-time, land-based production workers employed on the day shift. Variable workweeks are those where no predominant schedule prevailed in the employing establish ment. Data on weekly hours for offshore workers were not collected. Shift provisions and practices Shift provisions relate to the policies of establishments either currently operating late shifts or having formal provi sions covering late-shift work. Practices relate to workers employed on late shifts at the time of the survey. Employee benefits Employee benefits in an establishment were considered ap plicable to production workers if they applied to half or more of such workers in the establishment. Similarly, if fewer than half of the workers were covered, the benefit was considered nonexistent in the establishment. Because of length-of-service and other eligibility requirements, the proportion of workers receiving the benefits may be smaller than estimated. Paid holidays. Paid-holiday provisions relate to full-day and half-day holidays provided annually. Paid vacations. The summaries of vacation plans are limit ed to formal arrangements and exclude informal plans where by time off with pay is granted at the discretion of the employer or supervisor. Payments not on a time basis were converted; for example, a payment of 2 percent of annual earnings was considered the equivalent of 1 week’s pay, The periods of service for which data are presented represent the most common practices, but they do not necessarily reflect individual establishment provisions for progression. For ex ample, changes in proportions indicated at 20 years of serv ice may include changes which occurred between 15 and 20 1 Temporary disability insurance, which provides benefits to covered workers disabled by injury or illness which is not work-connected, is man datory under State laws in California, New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island. Establishment plans which meet only the legal requirements are ex cluded from the survey data, but those under which (1) employers contrib ute more than is legally required, or (2) benefits exceed those specified in the State law are included. In Rhode Island, benefits are paid out of a State fund to which only employees contribute. In each of the other three States, benefits are paid either from a State fund or through a private plan. years. Health-care, insurance, and retirement plans. Data are presented for health-care, insurance, and retirement plans for which the employer pays all or a part of the cost, ex cluding programs required by law such as workers’ com pensation and Social Security.1 Among plans included are those underwritten by a commercial insurance company and those paid directly by the employer from current operating funds or from a fund set aside for this purpose. Death benefits are included as a form of life insurance. Sickness and accident insurance is limited to that type of in surance under which predetermined cash payments are made directly to the insured on a weekly or monthly basis during illness or accident disability. https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis State fund financing: In California, only employees contribute to the State fund; in New Jersey, employees and employers contribute; in New York, employees contribute up to a specified maximum and employers pay the difference between the employees’ share and the total contribution required. Private plan financing: In California and New Jersey, employees cannot be required to contribute more than they would if they were covered by the State fund; in New York, employees can agree to contribute more if the State rules that the additional contribution is commensurate with the benefit provided. 2 An establishment is considered as having a formal plan if it specifies at least the minimum amount of sick leave available to each employee. Such a plan need not be written, but informal sick leave allowances determined on an individual basis are excluded. 48 Alcohol and drug abuse treatment plans provide at least partial payment for institutional treatment (in a hospital or specialized facility) for addiction to alcohol or drugs. Tabulations of retirement pensions are limited to plans which provide regular payments for the remainder of the retiree’s life. Data are presented separately for retirement severance pay (one payment or several over a specified period of time) made to employees upon retirement. Establishments providing both retirement severance payments and retirement pensions to employees were considered as having both retire ment pensions and retirement severance pay plans; however, establishments having optional plans providing employees a choice of either retirement severance payments or pensions were considered as having only retirement pension benefits. Paid funeral and jury-duty leave.3 Formal plans that pro vide at least partial payment for time lost as a result of at https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis 49 tending funerals of specified family members or serving as a juror. Cost-of-living adjustments. Formal plans that adjust wages in keeping with changes in the bls Consumer Price Index or some other measure. Technological severance pay. Formal plans that provide pay ments to employees permanently separated from the com pany because of a technological change or facility closing. Thrift or savings plan. Data relate to formal provisions for thrift or savings plans to which the employer makes mone tary contributions beyond administrative costs. 3 When jury-duty leave is required by law, as it is in Alabama, Nebras ka, Tennessee, and parts of Florida and Massachusetts, plans are included only if the employer provides the employees with benefits exceeding the legal requirement. Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau’s wage surveys is to assist its field representatives in classifying into appropriate occupations workers who are employed under a variety of payroll titles and different work arrangements from establishment to establishment and from area to area. This permits the grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of this emphasis on interestablishment and interarea comparability of occupational content, the Bureau’s job descriptions may differ significantly from those used in individual establish ments or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau’s field representatives are in structed to exclude supervisors, apprentices, learners, be ginners, trainees, and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers. The titles and codes below the job titles in this appendix are taken from the 1980 edition of the Standard Occupational Classification Manual (SOC), issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Office of Federal Statistical Policy and Standards. In general, the Bureau of Labor Statistics occupational descriptions are much more specific than those found in the SOC manual. For example, three of the occupations studied separately in oil and gas extraction had the same SOC code (652—drillers, oil wells). Therefore, in comparing the results of this survey with other sources, differences in occupation al definitions should be taken into consideration.

Excluded from this classification are casual laborers who are hired as need ed, and maintenance floor workers (gang pushers). Difficulties are sometimes encountered in distinguishing between roustabouts and roughnecks (rotary floor workers). Whenever such difficulties arise, roughnecks should be con sidered as those workers who assist in the actual drilling oper ations and those operations alone. Roustabouts are employed after the well is drilled. They assist in various other func tions encountered in petroleum production. Truckdriver (821: Motor vehicle operator) Drives a truck in or around oil or gas fields to transport petroleum, equipment, work crew, or supplies between bat tery sites, rail points, and other unloading docks.
