If you know nothing of petroleum, you have no business working on an offshore oil drilling rig. If you are asking me, I'd tell you that is the first thing I would recommend that you do: learn about the petroleum you would be working about, and then perhaps I would consider you for whatever you are applying for. And I tell you, there's a whole lot to learn in that quarter. The moment you pick up a book on the subject, you'll suddenly have a clue.
Offshore oil drilling jobs constitute a whole industry on their own - and it is a professional industry at that. On an oil drilling rig, there isn't a lot of room for error. As a result all employees take their jobs very seriously, and you'll see it the moment you try having a word with one of them. So if you don't consider yourself the serious type, you might want to look elsewhere for a job.
Within the offshore oil drilling industry there is a lot you can learn. You can learn to work under the most challenging of conditions, and you can learn to work with some of the best professionals in their various fields. In the end, you turn out to be more of a rounded person, and a consummate professional in your own right. I don't know about you, but that has always been my dream, and I intend to live up to it.
It could take you a whole lifetime to prepare for an offshore job, and you'd still only be half-baked when you get called upon for it. It's just that reality is always such a far cry from whatever simulation you could have undergone, you'd need a whole new orientation.
Crude oil is such a unique substance; there are so many things you need to understand about it. And when you are on an offshore drilling rig, there are all these safety measures you need to adhere to. If you don't have that covered, you don't want to work on an offshore oil drilling rig.
Of the many things to consider about what work is like when doing it on an offshore oil drilling rig, I'd state three major factors as being most important. The first is your professional qualifications; the second is your state of health; and the third be your ability to swim. Indeed there is no compromising on these things. If for some reason all three are not there, there's simply no way you'll be getting the job.
Another great offshore job you can create is to learn internet marketing. There are lots of great Internet posts on internet marketing tricks.
If there are people you know who work on an offshore oil drilling rig, it simply implies that you can do it too. Although there may be lots of challenges to overcome on the way to making that dream come true, you can tell yourself that is there were people who could overcome them, so can you too. Don't let anyone ever tell you that you cannot be everything you dreamt of being.
There has got to be a reason why they pay so much more for people who work on offshore drilling rigs; or haven't you thought of it? It's because you are so away from your family all that time, and you are indeed in harm's way. Considering that, really, no amount of money can pay enough to cover for all that risk.
If you get seasick, you can't work on an offshore oil drilling rig. Put simply, you'd cave at a time when you are needed the most. You could be the most brilliant person, if you can't stomach the waves you are no good out there on the rig.
Offshore jobs, especially those out at sea, embody certain qualities. I am speaking of the kind of offshore job you do on an oil drilling rig. You have to be able to maintain calm in the face of a storm and professionalism at all times; and this is only mentioning a few of the needed qualities. You should acquaint yourself with all of these if you are looking to get into that line of work. - 31955
