Introducing Conventionally Uncouth - Stories From The Patch

We’re sitting down with Troy Tittlemeier as he breaks down why dolomite's still driving big convos underground, how hydrogen might flip the future of energy, and what happens when your transfer pump craps out with 500 barrels of dirty water heading your way. Behind every wellhead, every flare, and every busted pump…there’s a story nobody’s told yet. Welcome to Conventionally Uncouth.
