Why when im looking on Craigslist I see plenty of driving jobs around Odessa/Midland area? But hardly any in the San Anton or SW Texas area which should cover the Eagle Ford. Im looking for oil companies hiring Drivers in the southern part below San Antonio. Anybody?

OK where can a Driver get a Bone ???

Can you get $20/hour oil jobs in those places like you can in Midland? Are they short on workers too?

C&J in Robstown/ CC,Tx, Orion in Corpus Christi, Stallion Oilfield in Alice Tx, Halliburton, Trinidad I think is the other name just outside of CC. Those are all companies hiring almost anybody, at least in the area I live in.
Does this still hold true? It's been a a while since you posted this.

Anyhow, there is various types of jobs.

Water haulers make about 15.00/hr
Diesel haulers 12.00-15.00/hr (Class B bobtail tankers)
Acid haulers 18.00/hr
Frac equipment 15.00-20.00
Sand either 18.00/hr or pay by the loads
Can even people with no experience who got their CDL from companies like Schulumberger get those jobs?

I think Crude transport companies are starting to get picky about drivers and requiring some experience. I think crude transport companies require cleaner backgrounds in order to get clearance for the tank farms bunt 100% sure...same with fuel transports who pick up fuel from refineries. If you want to haul oil, transporting water is a good way to gain tanker experience.
