Mud, wildcat wells, and a whole lot of oilfield chaos, Blake Mosley brings it all to life with the perfect mix of science and field stories. Reed gets him talking through everything from lime-based mud to modern hydraulic tricks, breaking down how drilling fluids actually keep wells under control and why the industry is never done evolving. Blake’s been in the thick of it for years, so every explanation comes with a story, a laugh, or a “you won’t believe what happened on this job” moment. It’s the kind of conversation that hits whether you’ve spent decades on rigs or you’re just curious about what really goes into punching a hole in the ground.

Reed sat down with Tadd Wallace, the guy steering the ship at C3 Oilfield Services, and let’s just say this one’s packed with real-deal oilfield wisdom. From breathing new life into old conventional wells to experimenting with hydrocarbon-based fluids, Tadd’s got a playbook that blends tradition with innovation. We got into the nitty-gritty of how veteran knowledge, shared data, and a little outside-the-box thinking can completely change the game when it comes to efficiency and production. It’s part war stories, part strategy session, and all about how the oil patch keeps evolving.
