  • Depends..... Floor hands can get paid anywhere from $18-$24ish an hour. Derrick hand $22-$28ish driller $25-$35ish also depends where your workin, onshore, offshore, or overseas. Pay can vary alot from there. Gotta love throwin' chain!  (ex-roughneck)

  • So repetitive, how much do they get paid?
