**Roustabout Duties and Responsibilities**

While a roustabout’s daily responsibilities can vary, most share several core duties on oil and gas rigs:
**1.Clean Up Drill Sites and Rigs**

One of the central duties of a roustabout is cleaning up drill sites and rigs throughout the shift. This tends to include hauling debris away from drilling areas but can also include tasks like handling spills to prevent accidents and injuries. In this aspect of the role, a roustabout may also need to operate loader-lifters, dump trucks, and forklifts to haul out heavy material and properly dispose of it.

**2.Transport and Store Materials**

Roustabouts also transport materials to work sites and properly store them. For roustabouts who work on off-shore rigs, this can include operating machinery to move pallets from ships to the deck of the rig, unloading materials from deliveries, and ensuring that they are securely stowed on the rig. For land-based roustabouts, this part of the job tends to involve operating heavy machinery to place materials where they need to go.

**3.Install Equipment**

In addition to receiving and transporting materials and supplies, roustabouts also load and offload equipment and ensure proper installation. This may include setting and welding pipe, installing engines for drills and pumps, and setting flow lines in collaboration with other roustabouts. Roustabouts also need to conduct inspections of this equipment prior to and during extraction activities to ensure proper function.

**4.Repair Pump Equipment**

From day to day, roustabouts often need to conduct repairs on pumps and related equipment to ensure a steady flow of oil or gas and prevent leaks and other hazards. This requires excellent attention to detail to identify issues, and often roustabouts need to work in cramped underground or elevated areas to conduct emergency repairs with hand and power tools while maintaining safety and preventing fires or equipment failure.

**5.Maintain Drilling and Extraction Tools**

Roustabouts also maintain and repair other tools and equipment used for extraction, most notably drilling equipment and tools. In addition to repairing drills and rigs, the roustabout may need to conduct repairs and maintenance to counteract the effects of weather or environmental issues, such as dust or corrosion, to ensure that equipment does not fail and create a dangerous situation on the rig.
