Anyone Work Offshore?


Recommended Posts

Month and Month for me in Angola. Been there 6 years+ now, and 16 years North Sea with the occasional Asian Trip before that.

Advice..... As others have said, it's not for everybody, sop don't rush out and buy the Range Rover Sport just yet.

Not only yourself to think of either, your missus has to be of the right kind to cope / addapt to you not being there.

Changed days now with internet, phones, satelite TV etc.

If you've heard about fancy food etc etc. forget it! Yes, on some platforms / Vessels they can turn out a good spread, but a LOT of places leave a lot to be desired.

 

It's allowed me a lot of things I would never have had if I hadn't done it, but I'd be back in a garage Tomorrow if I got anywhere near the £££

 

All the best, Hope you take to it. :thumbs:

Production, I'm with BP at the minute, central north sea.

 

 

Yup, Im central as well on an FPSO,

 

Production ?? looking for a job ?? lol,, plenty here.

 

 

I'm happy were I'm at for now RB, its a small platform, no complaints to date, I use to work for ExxonMobil but there out of the north sea now, most of the oil majors have there interests west of Shetland, this last couple of year there's been a lot of projects to extend field life on most of the platforms, so there has been plenty of jobs for all trades of late, not sure how that's going to fare when it quietens down construction wise in the next few years..
