Under pressure and under new management - being a roughneck is going to get a whole lot rougher.
These roughnecks have a way with words. Watch as we try and decipher some of the saltier dialogue.
The Black Gold Theme Performed by Country Star Trace Adkins.
Roughneck? Upper kelly cock? We hit the streets and ask real NYers to take a shot at what these terms mean.

LICENSED TO DRILL
It's boom or bust as truTV's hit series Black Gold - from the successful creator of Deadliest Catch and Ice Road Truckers - returns for its third season. With the economy continuing to struggle, the stakes are higher than ever for roughnecks working the oil rigs in Texas. These guys can't afford to make any mistakes that might cost them their jobs or, even more importantly, their lives.
