Crews and field professionals working out of Odessa have several housing options. A furnished monthly apartment at Faudree Ranch gives each person or team a private unit, a full kitchen, and a washer and dryer.
Oilfield housing options in Odessa
Field workers and crews on assignment in Odessa typically book one of three types of housing: man camps, extended-stay hotels, or furnished monthly apartments.
Man camps offer bed space in shared facilities. Workers share bunkrooms, bathrooms, kitchens and common areas with other crews. The setup works for short rotations but offers little privacy after a shift.
Extended-stay hotels provide a private room but no full kitchen or in-unit laundry. Most units have a microwave and mini-fridge. Laundry is in a common area down the hall.
Furnished monthly apartments rent by the month with a private unit, a full kitchen, an in-unit washer and dryer, and utilities included in one monthly bill. Each worker or team gets a separate apartment with its own front door, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and laundry.
What a furnished monthly apartment provides for oilfield crews
A furnished apartment gives each worker or team a private front door, bedroom, bathroom, full kitchen and in-unit washer and dryer. After a 12-hour shift, a crew can cook, do laundry and rest without waiting for shared facilities.
The apartment is fully furnished with sheets, towels, dishes and housewares. A crew moves in with work gear and personal bags. Beds, tables, chairs, sofas and all kitchen equipment are in place.
All utilities, cable and internet are included in one monthly bill. No separate electric, water or internet charges. No meter readings, no separate accounts, no surprise utility bills.
Rent is monthly with a minimum stay of 3 months. Most drilling, pipeline and construction projects in the Permian run 3 to 24 months, and monthly rent aligns with those timelines.
Privacy matters after a shift. A private apartment lets workers cook on their own schedule, do laundry when they need clean clothes, and sleep in a quiet unit without shared bunkrooms or hallways full of other crews.
Faudree Ranch: owner-operated oilfield housing in Odessa
Affordable Corporate Housing Solutions owns and operates Faudree Ranch, a furnished apartment community in Odessa that houses oilfield crews, pipeline teams, construction workers, travel nurses and relocating professionals.
The property is owner-operated. Bookers work directly with the owner’s team with no broker or third-party housing vendor markup. One point of contact handles everything from the first call through move-in.
Each apartment has a full kitchen, an in-unit washer and dryer, and all utilities, cable and internet included in the monthly rent. The kitchen has a stove, refrigerator and all cookware and dishes. The washer and dryer are inside the unit, not in a shared laundry room.
Units are fully furnished with sheets, towels, dishes and housewares. A crew arrives with work gear and personal items and the apartment is ready to use.
The property is pet-friendly with a 24-hour gym on site.
How monthly rent works for oilfield assignments
Rent is billed monthly. One monthly invoice covers rent, utilities, cable and internet with no separate bills. Accounting receives one line item per unit per month.
The minimum stay is 3 months and assignments typically run 3 to 24 months, matching drilling, pipeline and construction project timelines. A drilling crew might stay 4 months. A pipeline team might stay 8 months. A construction crew might stay 12 months.
One monthly bill covers everything with no separate invoices or surprise charges. The amount does not change when the crew uses more electricity or runs the washer more often.
Call for availability and rates based on unit type and assignment length.
Who books oilfield housing in Odessa
Operations managers, project managers and housing coordinators at oil and gas, pipeline and construction companies book furnished apartments for field teams. They need housing for crews of 4, 8 or 12 workers for assignments of several months.
Field supervisors and tool pushers book housing for crews rotating into Odessa for drilling and completions work. The housing needs to work for the rotation schedule and give the crew a place to rest between shifts.
Individual field professionals, including contractors, engineers and travel nurses, book apartments for assignments of several months. A directional driller on a six-month contract, a completions engineer on a four-month assignment, or a travel nurse on a 13-week rotation all need a furnished apartment with a kitchen and laundry.
ACHS houses both whole crews and individual workers. The property can accommodate a pipeline crew of 12 and a solo contractor on a six-month assignment.
Questions to ask when booking oilfield housing in Odessa
Is the unit fully furnished with sheets, towels, dishes and housewares, or will the crew need to bring those items? Some properties provide only furniture and expect workers to bring linens and cookware.
Does the apartment have a full kitchen with a stove, refrigerator and cookware, and does it have an in-unit washer and dryer? A microwave and mini-fridge are not a full kitchen. A shared laundry room down the hall is not an in-unit washer and dryer.
Are all utilities, cable and internet included in the monthly rent, or are they billed separately? Some properties bill utilities separately and the crew receives multiple invoices.
What is the minimum stay, and does it match the length of your assignment? Some properties require a full year. The minimum needs to fit the project timeline.
Is the property pet-friendly if workers are bringing dogs or cats for a long assignment?
Who is the point of contact for questions or maintenance issues during the stay? Will the crew deal with the property manager directly or call a third-party service?
Are you working directly with the property owner or through a broker or housing locator who adds a markup? Brokers and locators take a cut, which increases the cost.
