Seniors at Weir Oil & Gas

Seniors in the IPAA/PESA Petroleum Academy at Southwest High School (IPAS) delved deeper into the nuts and bolts of the oil and gas industry when they explored pump manufacturing particulars at Weir Oil and Gas in late February. Staff explained the design process of pumps, how to determine if a pump is needed, the time it takes to produce the product, and how Weir’s pumps are tested against their competitors. Weir employees, including Dave Warnick the Vice President of Human Resources, took the time to share their personal stories with the students regarding the steps they took after high school in order to advance to the careers they have today.
