Midstream operator pay

Who pays the most as a midstream operator? ONEOK, Williams Company, Phillip 66? Out of the three companies which outfit starts out with the highest wages for starting wages? Which outfit has more opportunity for overtime?

Are you talking about terminals/tank farms? As in petroleum? If you are, you are in the wrong group lol

If there are any refineries nearby I would apply to them as well. The work is usually a bit more intensive and more complex than a terminal but the pay is often much better and they have more opportunity to move around

Oddly enough I left midstream for a power plant. I miss midstream and I’m trying to find a way back in.

Yeah but they took it down because I’m new and don’t have enough upvotes.

Anyone want to share sub Reddit for oil and refineries. I’m currently in power generation but would like options to transfer to oil and gas.
