What is it about oil that makes us think of sex? Consider what a reader shared with us (in response to our earlier post about "tight hole operations):
For those with dirty minds, the oil patch is full of possibly suggestive terms: stripper well, squeeze job, acoustic coupler, backscatter, toolpusher, blowing the drip, flocculate, tank dike, mud up, rod elevators, thrust fault, and polished rod. I think you could write an entire xxx-rated short story using only oilfield terms in place of actual naughty words.
