Nice thread, i have been an offshore personnel on and off since 2008, av been on the AKPO FPSO AND USAN FPSO all located in the gulf of Guinea which is regarded as deep offshore. When you work offshore trasversing the sea makes you give God more glory, vast sea, different aquatic creatures. Life onboard can be very regimented, you wake up early make sure u have ur breakfast early most cases before 6am for hookup periods, if u miss d breakfast then u can be recompensed with tea break by 9am. Its a challenging enviroment and you must play by the rules or get booted out. When you eat during meals there are no bosses, be u an engineer, a welder a doctor or the OIM, you must queue for ur meals and when u are done u must thrash d remnants urself. Drills (muster drills, fire drills or pirate drills) can be interesting and very annoying if its late lest say 2am. I do 4/4 weeks and it has helped me slow down on booze, its always fun when u call the family and hear ur kids asking daddy when are u coming back? there is harmony onboard most cases. But the disparity in pay hurts so much, caterers take home pay in some instances are a day's pay for others yet they work their asses off. We eagerly look out for timeoff date with joy but God bless u if chopper doesnt come due to one reason or the other. I sign out by saying 90% of offshore workers are flirts 5 Likes |

What I meant is that I am presently on an FPSO. upengineer: Yes, i work on one of the FPSOs you listed. You are really vast with FPSO names. As regards babes visiting, well on my FPSO, babes cant visit. Reason been the remoteness of the location and the distance. My location is deep water, Gulf of Guinea. Maybe other locations or BARGES but on a FPSO, i think no. But i stand to be corrected. Drills are normal, no special thing about it. It can happen anytime. Entry Qualification depends on the job you are coming in for and that is determined by the HR. There are different jobs for different people depending on where you belong. There is marine department, there we have 2nd officers, deck hands, riggers e.t.c to welders, to painters to galley hands. Though the galley (canteen) is handled by a third party company to Rope Access guys. Sure, there is job for everybody. Though, am in operations sha. I think i have answered some funny questions |

I work offshore as an (STC) safety training coordinator. We try our possible best to make employees maintain a safe attitude during their stay offshore so they can go back to their families at the end of their hitch as safe as they came. The working environment in the oil and gas industry is a hazardous one, but we believe safety is everyone's business and that zero incidence is achievable if all the parties involved work as a team watching after each other. 2 Likes |
