In this gritty and honest episode of The Crude Cast, we sit down with Russell Wilson, a longtime driller, tool pusher, and all-around oilfield veteran. From high-tech hydrate experiments on the slope, Russell shares battle-tested stories from his two decades in Alaska's harshest conditions.

We get into everything:

• The dangers—and discipline—behind continuous circulation
• $60M well disasters and the lessons they taught
• Why training and mentorship are the future of rig safety
• Hydrate drilling for the Japanese government
• And how wildcards, weather, and crew chemistry shape every hitch

Whether you're new to the field or a salty hand yourself, this episode delivers raw insight, laughs, and hard truths about what it really means to work the iron in Alaska.
