you sure could not use the landmarks to narrow down the location
my husband works in oil and gas--his company has done busines with a couple of the people in the show
and the guy at his company who oversees their drilling rigs is not as nice as the guys they showed last night--
time is money and nobody wants to lose money even with oil/gas as high as it is....

I don't know where it is either specifically. I watch it cuz it's in Texas  and I know someone who is a roughneck on a natural gas rig in Tarrant County.

I'm not real sure I've worked pretty much the whole permian basin oil patch in the pipeline industry. But it looks so much the same from Hobbs to Sprayberry and McCamey to Levalland with the short glimpses you get of the country side. But the bar looked like Dios Amigos on the west side of Odessa. And yes I have seen most of those out there too !!!  LOL

It is filmed in Upton County or Reagan County I think.
I've met some of the people with ExL that are shown.
The show is definately not realistic. I have a feeling a lot is staged for entertainment.
