rotormast: I've contacted the academy in the past and they told me they were not recruiting. If you can link me up with the instructor in the academy that will be great. Learning from his experience on how he got hired there might give me better of chance of getting recruited too. 3 Likes |

ebohstepn: What kind of surveyor sir? We have what we call Classification society like ABS, BV, Lloyd register that employs Marine Surveyors who come to the ship for inspection to ensure ships are compliant with International Maritime Organisation / ISM standard before issuing us certificate of compliance. And you would have worked previously on a ship as either a chief engineer or so to attain that position. 2 Likes |

Explorers: Actually, i don't think the calculations are that hard because i see average students passing and graduating, so why not you. Also, most of our calculation courses are just Navigation, Ship stability, Cargo work and Chart work. I believe you will survive except the first 2 if you are really bad in calculation. 1 Like |

emmaodet: 2.2million if you are working with a multinational company with your DP, no indigenous company will pay a second officer even up to that amount... Indigenous company pays second officer 500k on security boats and may go a bit higher if you are working on PSV or AHTS vessel with DP certificate 1 Like |

Nairalandmonika: Probably because of the training workload......lots of calculations. At least if you can graduate from engineering school, your chance of passing in flight school is high......its not for anything other than that. Anybody can go to flight school and become a pilot....depend on FAA approval Your health, vision and logical reasoning are far more important. 1 Like |

What it will cost you and continue to cost you (the never-ending expensive trainings and courses) is equivalent to what you will earn throughout your flying career... |

fashrola: I know. I work 6 weeks in/6 weeks out. I work on PSV and AHTS. I have friends working on Durga Devi earning 55k/day as second mate and 90k/day as chief officer. I can't come down to working on a security boat bro, up i go, never down. I was called for a job with Mariteam last year January, 2.1m but unfortunately i was at work and lost the job. I have a friend who works on Mo Tuncan - 2.1m per month as second. But on average, the salary of a DP officer second mate roves around 1m Also, indigenous companies like Awarise, Lahama, Temile etc pays second 1.2-1.4m while chief 1.5-1.8m per month I'm in the industry and giving you facts even backing it up with company names and vessels. I have friends working on NLNG tankers, don't let us even talk go there. Those guys are walking in money. International trade and license 9 Likes 1 Share |
