Going Offshore..
 

Alright fellas im going offshore with a company called Offshore specialties...21 and 7 is a brutal shift for a first timer but i think ima like the money aspect of it...all yall fellas who work out there..wats a couple things i shouldnt go out there without?? Let me know something..Thanks

Pepto Bismol and headache medicine..............for all the crappy food and Bull you will have to put up with. My first hitch offshore was 9 WEEKS...........my wife was not happy ...................until she got the check!! Bring extra clothes if you can........sometimes they get lost in the laundry.....have fun

i heard the food was good

Well let me ask you.......where are you going? What vessel will you be on?

unless you are getting on a high end vessel or a nice rig..........dont count on good food.

im goin to a platform about 107 miles offshore???

GOOD Luck!!! 21 n 7....Never did that...Im 7 n 7 and love it....you make good money and only work 1/2 year....Once you build up time you get vaction!!

Do you know the name of it? I've been on a bunch of different rigs out there. But i will tell you the food probably wont be what you are expecting....dont take this the wrong way ...........i am not trying to be negative about it......but i thought the same thing when I went offshore for the first time.

You lucky MFer.........i wish i could do a 7 and 7 or 14 and 14

OUR Food is Awesome...We have some good cooks out here!!! Never a bad meal!!! all the junk food a man can want!!!!

Your a lucky one. what platform you stay on?

yaa dood..i wanted 14 and 14..but..i gotta do 21 and 7 for mah first couple hitches they said..so im cool wit that..after a couple hitches ima go get wat i need to get into production operating and do that..

If you dip or smoke, bring plenty. Nobody out here likes a tabacco bum.

Bring some cough drops. If anyone gets sick or comes to work sick, usually a chunk of the crew gets it too.
Also bring a combination lock to keep sticky fingers out of your locker.
I am on one of the biggest platforms in the GOM and the food here sucks.
And bring some flip flops to take a shower with. Unless you want to dip your toes in the gene pool.
Always carry a spare suit of clothing and shaving kit with you when traveling offshore, in case weather sticks you on a rig or platform you don't have any clothes on.
Hope you can sleep with lots of noise.

Boy yall trying to run him off quick!!! lol...........Its not that bad!! use bleach lots of bleach in the showers......

The bigger the platform or rig, the more crap you have to put up with.
Hope you start out small...

Wait till you guys see HH next month. After about day 10, he will probably go into a whack off frenzy and lose about 10 or 15 lbs. by the time he gets back...

.
