Hi George,

Just go for it mate, if you have done plenty of civils work and are ok with it and not totally useless, I can assure you, that you will be good enough for the offshore game.

The work is varied as with civils, for instance, riser clamp installations, spm inspections and maintanance,
broco cutting, installing and maintaining flexible risers, spooling, hydra tight systems, riser installations etc...... the list is endless.

The type of civils that best relates to offshore work is safety and common sense, if you have this you wont go far wrong.

Best Regards - Rich

As soon as you feel comfortable making the move to offshore, and are willing to learn is probably when you are ready to make the move! Like Richard said, as long as you have your head on your shoulders you`ll probably be OK. But don`t jump into offshore before you think you`re ready!

Regards,

Everett Chadney
