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.
