Thanks a lot for the thread. By the way pardon if my English might not be clear enough for your understanding. To my concern/plea; I am have completed three years of academic studies from a maritime academy with my cert. in BT, SSAT-SDSD, ISM, E-WATCH, and BTOC. I have also a copy of my grades from my school, though not a TOR (Transcript of Record), more so I have my Engine Room Daily Journal, ISF Engine Cadet Training Record Book (TRB). Medical and SIRB, I have also. So, I need assistance in getting onboard a ship of 750kW or more of main propulsion power for a duration a of 12 months as required by STCW 2010 Manila Amendments. My email is emprialf@hotmail.com , emiyiabolord@gmail.com and contact number: 09023040791. Thanks Eidosky: |

Op you did well creating the Seafarer thread so all on Nairaland can rendezvous here. Most Nigerians go into sea job just for the money and the opportunity of being employed. The corruption starts from the ship. Most of the vessels do illegal bunkering and that is what attracts people from different profession to flood into the system like as if there is manner offshore. Some companies are aware but instead of fighting it they accept their own share. It's only in Nigeria a company will ask a fresh applicant who has no sea experience to bring WATCH KEEPING CERTIFICATE before he will be employed instead of accepting the person as an OS to enable him get six months sea term before going for EDH and upgrade himself. In Jamaica all their seafarers must attend their maritime school which is two years before obtaining an AB Deck or AB engine license with phases of going to sea in between studies. Maritime Academy is sinking and the ministry of Transport in which the school is under is not responding to her distress. They don't inspect the school any longer to know exactly the problem of the school. It's not about pumping money into the system but ensuring the money being pumped is utilized for its purpose. Several cadets left maritime academy to Ghana maritime because they have what it takes to produce standard mariners not half baked. Most Nigerians go on board to steal and destroy ship items. The insecurity around our waters has a lot to do with illegal bunkering operations carried out by ship crew. We have to embrace discipline in everything we do. Most companies do not accept our license not because they have issues with the Academy but with the country as a nation. They believe anything about Nigeria is fraud or not genuine. Cause those in the office wants their relatives to be in a position weather qualified or not. How will Nigeria seafarers celebrate June 25th Seafarers day when no positive impact to their lives even ordinary protection from Nimasa we don't have. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

fashrola:what does the daily life and routine on an Ahts vessel looks like? Ahts psv offshore platform oil rig which is a good investment which is more frequently hired/in demand/versatile in the industry now? Nlng vessel captain...how much do they earn? |
Re: SEAFARERS Messroom by fashrola(m): 9:31pm On Aug 18, 2016 |
IHate9ja1: *The daily life is boring but since its what I do.. I always make the best use of my time by reading, the daily routine is the same everyday : Eat, Work, Sleep, also good crew can make your day on-board worthwhile *AHTS, PSV daily life is the same.... though PSV contracts are usually short term due to the nature of their job, because some AHTS serves as PSVs too, In short AHTS are multipurpose boat though PSV have larger deck space *I've not worked on offshore platforms, so I can't tell how they life their lives but those guys are living the life men!!!! Though in an hazardous environment *Like I replied earlier, AHTS vessel is a good investment rather than PSVs, because AHTS serve the purpose of static towing, and Supply.. if u've been to Onne Port u'll see a lot of PSV vessels on anchorage without contracts, their contracts are always short termed except when commissioning or decommissioning an oil installation * AHTS and Security Patrol boats are more in demand *I've not not worked onboard NLNG vessels, even though most of their captains are white folks, I guessed they are paid well, I think they might not be paid below N1.8million if converted to Naira monthly |

fashrola:i havent been to Onne actually,your facts are valid from my research AHTS vessel are able to secure more contracts. Btw Tugs and Ahts vessel is their any really big difference? 1 Like |

fashrola: from your first hand experience, what is the average life span of a ship engine? Read online,some say 30years? |
Re: SEAFARERS Messroom by fashrola(m): 12:12am On Aug 20, 2016 |
IHate9ja1: The Average life span of a ship engine depends on the maintenance culture of the engine crew and company's zeal to supply spares for maintenance, though every five years continuous survey is carried out where the ship's engine must be totally overhauled (change of piston, cylinder head and liner, oil and water pumps, new valves, sometimes new crankshaft according to crank shaft deflection reading) and also the hull of the ship is sand blasted and lot of stuffs onboard are changed, then a surveyor from classification society like Lloyd's register, ABS, Bureau Veristas inspects and certifies that the ship is sea worthy. So most ships engine life span can stay for more than 30 years (Because I have seen product tankers that are still plying Nigerian Waters that was built in 1978) 2 Likes |
Re: SEAFARERS Messroom by Nobody: 7:48am On Aug 20, 2016 |
fashrola:overhaul sand blasting inspection are they done here or overseas? This would cost a whole lot...you have an idea about the possible cost |
Re: SEAFARERS Messroom by fashrola(m): 3:58pm On Aug 20, 2016 |
IHate9ja1: We have dry docks here in Nigeria that offer the above services, yeah it cost multi millions of Naira, I don't have an idea because it depends on the scope of job to be done on the vessel and different dry docks have their price tag |
