Any offshore workers?

[Student_11]

Hi,

I am a student currently completing a PhD on safety in the offshore industry. I have carried out a questionnaire in one rig but unfortunately I am still short of participants to enable me to complete the study. I have found it particularly difficult to gain access to more rigs.

I wondered if any offshore workers, who have a spare 10 minutes would mind filling out a questionnaire for me. It is completely anonymous and confidential and would really help me complete my studies.

If so, please let me know and I can forward you the questionnaire.

Thank you for any help.

If you want to take the project further get out here to the Rocky Mountain region and check out the safety on the rigs here.

It will make your toes curl as it does to 3 or 4 guys a year...permanently.

I take it they still have the gung ho yeee-haaa 'good ol boys' mentality out there then ?

I remember watching the drilling rig series that was on the tv. The one they filmed in America onshore was seriously Scarey watching

[zeolite]

That Texas series was a bit of soap opera. Guys out here have told me that there were auditions to get on that series so I wouldn't believe everything it showed.

I have just about completed my OSHA and company safety stuff and the rules are there but adherence to the rules is poor from the drilling companies. Smoking on the floor is not uncommon. Company coveralls have to be earned and there are so many green hands it is really quite scary at times. I am going to be responsible for a whole bunch of young inexperienced guys and I am going to have my work cut out just looking after them.

Student_11 I have 20 plus years of North Sea experience and a bit from other parts of the world. If you want something specific just send me a pm.

Thanks everyone for the replies, Ciaran I have sent you an email and sent a pm to you Zeolite, appreciate the help.

North sea safety standards are completely different to Saudi or the Gulf.

Send me it to chrisprovan@yahoo.co.uk and ill help you out.

Yeah, send it to me too if you want... though is it rigs or offshore general that you are after, because I'm on a Dive Support Vessel at the moment...

I have to say though, I am pretty curious that you have come onto a Subaru forum straight off the bat asking for offshore workers email addresses? Was this your only reason for joining up, or do you actually have a scooby/interest?

[paul555sti]

Dale that was my fault! The guy posted on an old thread on scoobynet on the Scottish section and I suggested he would get more luck over here!

[Student_11]

Yeah sorry about that, hope it's ok to post on here. Don't get me wrong, there is some decent subaru's on here, so two birds with one stone! Let me know if you still want to do the questionnaire anyways, cheers.

[thefastone]

No, Your fine. Everyone is welcome here (well, almost ) I just making sure that your not just here to use our members and not give anything back, so that you leave them feeling used and dirrrrty.... Some of them like that mind.

Fire away. Send it to me also assuming that vessels are also within the remit of your studies (I do rig work also) - dale@sidc.co.uk

What uni are you studying at?

Cheers,

Dale.

Appreciate it, I am at Liverpool university, I'm an evertonian though if that helps haha.

Just emailed you the questionnaire too, whenever you get a spare bit of time.

Cheers mate.
