"HISOOB" hia mate i work for ss7 , i work on the dsv,s around the north-sea im a saturation diver , ive been with ss7 since 2000 , .... i also know a few lads who work for t/nip as well.......wes

Alright mate?

I'm with S7 too. Currently out WoS in inspection. Pretty good number to be on. :D

Are you regularly on one vessel Wes? I got a shot at some surface supply in Ft William a few months ago. Not really too keen on the thought of sat though! Congrats on you guys getting your pay rise.

yea i am mate , spend most of my time on the polaris but ive been on a few more , semi 1 / 2 , rocky , regailia (when they had it) , theres a new vessel this year 2 and a brand new one ready in a few years so there is plenty of work , i also did a few months on the mermaid commander (ex cso marianos) on a sat support job last year that was good fun lol , sats ok especially if you are in with a good set of lads .........we,ve still got sky tv in there lol , yea the rise was good tnx , helps take the sting out of the mega tax bill we get hit with lol...............

I know a few of the inspection bods on the polaris and am good mates with one of the project engineers out with you. He was last onboard when the polaris came in to port for the impending strike.

The regalia did a lot of work out WoS here but that was quite a bit before I joined the company.

There's no denying it..... tax sucks!

yea there all a good bunch of lads on there.........i may be back out there late next week , the vessel sails tonight actually i think its in peterhead , its just had a small amount of refit work done , i went back after the strike , had 13 days off went back just before new year (we drank our alcohol free wine in sat on new years eve lol) , got home on the 13th jan ......................

Hello Steve. I just came home on Wednesday night. I was talking to a couple of the Swaco lads and they reckon Turkmenistan is really bad. Best avoided in the future I think!

Us production lads don't have any time for going in the rec room :D . Aye Right!

I don't go offshore very often (onshore based IT stuff), but even I've been on the Chirag for two nights!

John

Try PSN world.

aye, not wrong there bud, the folk aint bad it's just messed up country

i was there last december and onshore when the el presidentie died
was a bit worried as to what may happen, thankfully nowt did

just a few visits from the local cops looking to see if everyone was were they were ment to be

or looking for a bribe more like :confused:


john

Hi
 

Anybody work for Schlumberger in the drilling and measurements business? If so whats it like regarding working life and pay? :wonder:

I've managed to avoid Nigeria so far :D

looks like i could be heading oot there pretty soon myself :eek2:

Me too Dunk - Stena Drillmax I as N/Toolpusher if all goes well.

BYE BYE Transocean....................you bunch of C#NT$

Russell

aye same here, im away with Brandt, bye bye halliburton you C*NTS, feckers just phoned me telling me im off on saturday, looks like my track days fecked noo! :mad: barstewards!! :(

thought with me quitting they would have left me sitting at home till my notice was done with :freak3:

I'm thinking about going offshore myself but have no idea what job would suit me best. I'm a machinist for vetco at the moment so only have experience pushing buttons at the moment.

dont worry bud, that all we do offshore too :lol1:

only difference is theres a bit more water kicking around us :norty:

oh and the fact that if your a service hand you'll never be home to enjoy yer scoob :freak3:

As long as you can smoke 40+ tabs and consume about 100 (150 if you dont smoke) cups of coffe a day you should be a fine candidate for a job offshore.
