opinions-
i worked offshore for about a year. liked it at the time when i was home with the cash and didnt really like being away from my then fiance.
14 days on 14 days off.
worked as a roustabout with Ensco then as a roughneck on a different rig.
Pay-
23500 as a roustabout, 28000 as a roughneck
the people are just like soldiers but rougher at drilling and labouring level overall. if you have a job as a technician etc then the people are different. at grass roots its really a mans man that fits in. daft humour a lot of smoking and mischief.
just now they are never off the phone looking for good people. they are sending out loads of rigs at the moment and cant get enough staff !!!!! never better a time to start other than in the 80's at the start of the boom.
go for it
