Many of us work offshore.. This is not very good. As a safety consultant with many yrs in the offshore industry.. This was unbelievable..

Wow

His sentenced was to light for the amount of human life he put at risk... The lost of one human life is not worth taking a short cut.....

I wish they would start cracking down on all the Co men that are forging FIT and casing tests also. Just came off a rig that had an underground blowout. They didn't get the true test to what the paperwork said. Thank god it was more saltwater than gas or we could have been in a bigger bind than we were.

I hope this jack arse had to spend a lot of money on legal bills.

i performed a bop/lubricator test for BESSE last week at their request.
all my PCE held fine, customer tree leaked like a seive.
they got a ink and BESSE shut it down.

i thanked the Besse guys for doing their job. keeps everybody honest.

they also looked at my JSA, tripped my unit esd, and looked at my portable esd station [platform] next to my unit. they asked my assistant a few questions like, "did u sign the jsa?'' where is the primary muster point ?, and things like that. They were very professional and approachable, this was my first encounter with BESSE, and i have no complaints.

there are some great professional people out there, but they don't make the news, it's the guy who spins a chart or takes short cuts who makes the news and makes us all look bad. please don't be that guy.

The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) is hard to get used to, but they are not going away, it will probably get tougher, and the guys that risk their lives offshore will be the beneficiaries of it. Moral of this story is to be ethical, and honest. Worse than losing his job and getting probation is that he put a blackmark on his name. Very hard to get a good name back. Hope he learned.

Very surprising.

I agree with ^^^^^^^^
