About Planet Care

A recruiter that has stood on the rig floor.

Planet Care is a manpower and recruitment consultancy headquartered in Karachi and Dubai, built around one focus: staffing the global oil and gas industry. Our core divisions — Drilling Crew, Drilling Fluid Specialists, Cementing Crew, TRS Crew, and Directional Crew — are staffed by recruiters with over a decade of combined management experience inside drilling contractors themselves.

That's the difference: we've run the operation we're staffing for.

We place permanent and temporary crew alike, backed by a partner network that reaches drilling clients worldwide — and the highest level of professionalism in every relationship we build.

Why Planet Care

Built by people who've worked the hole.

Rig-floor management

Leadership with hands-on drilling rig experience, so evaluating a good crew isn't guesswork.

Multinational track record

Proven delivery against the field-specific requirements of multinational operators.

Training & certification

Cost-effective support for training matrices and keeping crew certifications current.

Payroll before spud

Salaries transferred in the correct currency ahead of time — no transaction friction on site.

Nationality & language match

Full crews in the client's preferred nationality and language: Arabic, English, Urdu, and more.

Global partner network

Alliances that extend our recruitment reach to drilling clients across the world.

Built on relationships

Long-term relationships with both corporate clients and the candidates we place.

Full recruitment scope

End-to-end service — sourcing, offers, reference checks, training, and payroll.

Our Crew Divisions

Five divisions, one well plan.

We built our recruitment divisions the way a directional driller plans a well — each crew type mapped to the phase of the job it serves.

Surface Hole — Drilling Crew
  1. Surface Hole Drilling Crew Roughnecks, derrickmen, and drillers who run the rig floor day to day.
  2. Mud System Drilling Fluid Specialists Fluid engineers who keep circulation, pressure, and hole condition under control.
  3. Casing & Cement Cementing Crew Crews who set casing and cement with the integrity a well depends on for its life.
  4. Tubular Running TRS Crew Tubular running specialists for safe, efficient pipe handling on every string.
  5. Build & Hold Directional Crew Directional drillers who steer the well exactly where the target calls for.
