<b>People looking for well-paid jobs can find tempting career positions on Gas & Oil rigs offshore</b>. Despite offshore oil and gas rig platforms are not in their heyday due to decreasing oil prices, many companies are in process of doubling their workforce in the coming few years. Since it's not that easy to find skilled oil rig workers, they are always searching for the right gas and oil rig candidates with relevant experience.<br />
<br />
<h4>
How can I find the best position on gas & oil rigs for me?</h4>
<br />
You'd better consider what your intentions for the future are before <b>applying for a job on offshore oil and gas rigs</b>. Working on offshore platforms is not an easy profession and you should consider whether hands-on practical work offshore in a rational position is the best choice for you.<br />
<ul>
<li> Before you apply for a job on oil & gas rigs, write down all your strengths, skills and interests on a piece of paper - once you choose the position you are mostly interested in, send one application for the right position instead of sending many applications for the wrong positions. </li>
</ul>
<h4>
Have this in mind: Experience matters!</h4>
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJKJH6h0RMVNsYnyit67jXK1yFkrw6IRISCx5XPWrf0PAvaKnb1My2OLB6osEpa6cTV1KJe68AGnuFHgD7L4BMKDCPW14tRRgQoFFIRYTgbMxKJb403Xpsw1pe4uRTdu4CsVkE6klQTf9B/s1600/skilled+oil+rig+workers+at+sea.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="130" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJKJH6h0RMVNsYnyit67jXK1yFkrw6IRISCx5XPWrf0PAvaKnb1My2OLB6osEpa6cTV1KJe68AGnuFHgD7L4BMKDCPW14tRRgQoFFIRYTgbMxKJb403Xpsw1pe4uRTdu4CsVkE6klQTf9B/s200/skilled+oil+rig+workers+at+sea.jpg" width="200" /></a>Offshore Gas & Oil rig companies have ever valued people with all type of trade and <b>mechanical engineering qualifications</b> and this would probably continue be the case. But, positions on gas and oil rigs are often quickly filled by people who already have experience on similar positions on rig platforms. If this is going to be your first time on an offshore rig platform and you don't have any previous experience on a rig, then you can demonstrate your commitment and willingness to offshore work by applying for a roustabout position, which is the entry-level offshore oil rig job.<br />
<br />
One other thing you should consider is being aware of the daily life on offshore rigs, so that you can be in a better position to be a driller.<br />
<br />
<h4>
But, how do I get offshore experience when no one will hire me without any experience on gas & oil rigs? </h4>
<br />
HR companies are frequently asked this question because entry-level positions on gas & oil rigs are very competitive. <br />
<br />
You've got a trade background and <b>no experience on offshore rigs</b> - then you'd better apply for a service company first and as soon as you gain some experience you will be more likely to be hired for a rational gas or oil rig position.<br />
<br />
<h4>
What is a service company?</h4>
<br />
Offshore gas & oil rigs have different types of technical equipment, which regularly needs repair and maintenance. Some of the maintenance and repairing operations are carried out by rig workers, but if they are unable to fix the problem, then the offshore service provider will.<br />
<br />
Working with service companies within your trade, you are quickly going to gain very relevant offshore experience flying out to drilling rigs all over the world, repairing their technical equipment.<br />
<br />
<h4>
Leverage your education and experience on offshore drilling rigs?</h4>
<br />
If you've completed a degree in engineering, or if you've got leadership experience, then you might be a good fir for an acceleration program. Successful completion of such a program will secure you a challenging on or offshore drilling rig position.<br />
<br />
Before you apply for an offshore gas & oil drilling rig, make sure you choose the most appropriate program in accordance with your experience and interests.<br />
<br />
<h4>
Any other tips when applying for an offshore oil rig job?</h4>
<h4>
</h4>
<ul>
<li> Make sure that you apply for <b>the right position for you</b> - it's not very recommended to apply for every available gas & oil rig job, especially if the positions are offered by one company.</li>
<li> Pay some attention to make a good CV and clearly state your contact details, certifications and any other experience, which might be relevant. List your past positions, with names of the companies you've worked for, dates, and detailed description of what you did.</li>
<li> If you are invited to an interview for a drilling job, come prepared!</li>
</ul>
<ul><ul>
<li> Do a research into the position you are applying for and the company, as well. Make sure you understand the company, the desired path of your career, and how this offshore gas & oil rig job will fit you.</li>
<li> Make a search on the web about standard questions on job interviews, such as why you want to work for the company, and what your strengths and weaknesses are. Make a list of questions you would be interested to ask for and remember them. </li>
<li> You should also be able to describe yourself, because you are very likely to be asked - an offshore gas & oil rig job interview is about getting to know each other!</li>
</ul>

<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigsxxn0NqYF2wb4j-ZBDyyLHIofsFwe99i7EjRdZAEIMImEnbb-y28xCje-rtAXCoKteYQA2HBiNHUHPVypANHZ_GLVVEhMIpAmUarujzrl65SDbhXXT3y43tq6prumtT8xcePibq8rabo/s1600/Number+of+Oil+Drilling+Rigs+Plummets+with+Oil+Price+in+Saskatchewan.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="208" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigsxxn0NqYF2wb4j-ZBDyyLHIofsFwe99i7EjRdZAEIMImEnbb-y28xCje-rtAXCoKteYQA2HBiNHUHPVypANHZ_GLVVEhMIpAmUarujzrl65SDbhXXT3y43tq6prumtT8xcePibq8rabo/s320/Number+of+Oil+Drilling+Rigs+Plummets+with+Oil+Price+in+Saskatchewan.jpg" width="320" /></a>Indeed, there is an improvement of the number of active oil drilling rigs from earlier this month, when there were 25 active oil well drilling rigs the week of January 4th, which raised to 34 oil rigs the following week. This number might be compared with the 43 active oil rigs the week of January 5th, 2015, followed by 68 the week of January 12th, 2015. This is equal to 42% and 50% decline in the number of active oil well drilling rigs during the comparable periods over the last year. <br />
<br />
“When you look at the (2016) numbers, you’re technically growing,” said Kate Jackson, communications specialist with CAODC in Calgary. “There’s more active rigs (this week) than weeks past. But if you compare it to the same week in 2015,” the number of active rigs is down significantly from last year, she said.<br />
<br />
“It looks like Saskatchewan (active) rig count is dropping about 20 rigs every year,” Jackson added.<br />
<br />
There were 122 oil drilling rigs in total, including inactive or "down" rigs in Saskatchewan this week, for a rig utilization rate of 35%, according to the report of CAODC. The average level of total weekly drilling rigs count for 2016 is 120 units or almost 17% less, compared to the same period in 2015 when the average was 140. What this decline means is that <b>20 oil drilling rig platforms have left the province</b>, whether they're de-listed, parked and not coming back to drill in 2016 or moved to Alberta for work or parked in field locations here, commented Kate Jackson.<br />
<br />

Of 523 oil drilling rig platforms in total, Alberta had 133 active rigs this week and 390 down rigs. <br />
<br />
B.C. had 49 not active and 32 active oil drilling rigs out of 81 rigs or a utilization rate of 40%, while Manitoba had only 6 active drilling rigs this week, 12 down, for a total of 18 or a utilization rate of 33%.<br />
<br />
What Kate Jackson also added is that CAODC defines an active oil rig as "spud to rig release," which means "the drill bit is in the ground."<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, the decline in the activity of oil drilling rigs influenced over the oil rig jobs in the oilpatch accordingly. <b>Each oil rig platform</b> <b>employs approx 135 direct and indirect jobs</b>, including 20 direct oil rig jobs and 115 indirectly. “So 20 rigs times 135 jobs does make a difference,” said Jackson.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14379546608708835907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7678425807457171963.post-49059839507663177142015-03-24T20:40:00.001+02:002015-03-24T20:45:48.800+02:00The job of the Petroleum Engineer<div>

<b>Petroleum engineers </b>are viable for visiting potential drill sites before wells are dug to examine and determine not only the amount of fossil fuel, which might rest in a deposit, but also the depth, recoverability and quality of that supply.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The job responsibility of the petroleum engineer is to observe the <b>process of drilling</b> on the <b>oil rig platform</b> once it's been decided that the crude deposit is recoverable. Furthermore, the petroleum engineer is responsible for supervising of the construction and the operations at the site. One of the most important responsibilities of the petroleum engineer, however, is to <b>monitor the safety at the workplace</b>. They are also accountable for the most efficient and safest possible means for <b>extracting of oil or gas at sea</b>. As soon as the gas and oil extraction process is completed, the petroleum engineer should break down the site by disassembling the drills. </div>

It's a common opinion of <b>gas and oil rig employees </b>that work for petroleum engineers is kind a <i>difficult and stressful work</i>, full of unpredicted factors. Petroleum engineers tipically work directly from the field, despite the fact that some deskwork is required for recommendations and report analysis. More and more of the "easy" oil fields are being depleted in the recent years, which makes the job position very challenging. This forces the <i>gas and oil rig industry</i>, and petroleum engineers, to look for those oil fields that are less accessible, which increases the challenges that petroleum engineers must face. For this reason, the more experienced the petroleum engineers is, the more the candidate is going to be able to adapt to the unpredictable changes within the oil and gas industry.<br />
<br /></div>
<b><u>Education and Skills of petroleum engineers</u></b><br />
<br />
Being a petroleum engineer is a tough job that requires rigorous education and personal skills. Each engineer is obligated to have at least <b>bachelor degree</b> in a field, which is related to<b> earth science</b>. However, the bachelor's degree may be insufficient in some places, as more and more engineers are pursuing their graduate degrees to better fit their employers' requirements. Potential candidates may have an advantage if they are good at mathematics and physical sciences. It's also possible to get a degree specifically in petroleum engineering, but only a few universities offer this program (<a href="http://web.iit.edu/" target="_blank">Illinois Institute of Technology</a>, <a href="https://www.mines.edu/" target="_blank">Colorado School</a>, <a href="https://www.ttu.edu/" target="_blank">Texas Tech University</a> to name a few). The analytical reasoning, which comes from these disciplines is going to help <b>petroleum engineer</b>, not to mention that the position does require extensive chemistry and math knowledge.<br />

That's true because there is always something for every one of you, whether you are at the very beginning of your career or starting one anew. On the oil rig and gas platforms, there are available positions indoors and outdoors, positions for creative work and physical work, there is even big-picture work and detailed work. There are so many <i>gas and drilling rig platforms</i> located worldwide, but there is still a dearth of qualified staff to meet the needs of the oil and gas drilling rigs industry.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But besides variety, there is also and opportunity. All products produced in the gas and oil industry take prime role in the daily life of every person, which assures the guarantees the strong and steady growth in the gas and oil drilling rigs industry.</div>

The <u>power-engineer role</u>, who is responsible for the efficient and safe operations on the gas and oil rigs, responsible also for the industrial equipment of in-situ and upgrading operations, will be the the most in-demand oil rig job over the coming decade, reveals the <i>Petroleum Human Resources Concil report</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other <b>oil rig vacancies</b> considered to be very popular are tending to be the oil rig jobs of heavy-duty equipment mechanics and heavy equipment operators that repair and maintain engines and engine support systems.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If the applied, hands-on and tangible work is of interest to you, then these <b>oil rig jobs</b> are a very good purpose to consider, as these oil rig vacancies are going to provide you a great opportunity to take a key support role in keeping the entire <u>gas and oil rig industry up to speed</u>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

New starts usually have the toughest time to get hired, besides <b>looking for an offshore oil rig job with no experience</b> or a job in any other industry. And it's normal by one side!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Who wants to hire offshore</b> <b>oil rig workers without experience on oil rig platforms</b>? Moreover, this is more complicated to get on the rig platforms in time of recession or just in tight economy, because it's really difficult to justify the needed time to train new hires (no matter offshore oil rig workers with no experience, cleaners, or whatever you think). You can not fake the oil rig experience, but you can at least express your intention to get learn of the specifity of offshore oil rig jobs. If you seem to be clueless you can not get hired on the job. You need to have a good attitude.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The very first step while looking for an offshore oil rig job you need to undertake is to <b>find and talk to people</b> who are already involved in the Oil and <a href="http://www.ogj.com/index.html" target="_blank">Gas industry</a> to share their experience with you. It is even preferably to get in touch with someone who is currently working in the offshore oil rig industry. Hopefully, you could find a relative, college senior or old friend of your family that is already in the offshore oil industry. You just need to ask them as many questions as you can so you can extract their experience. Ask them questions like:</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">What is it like in their job?</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">How are their colleagues?</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">What is life like on the inside on oil rig platforms?</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">What is their company like?</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Remember one thing: You Do Not need to be Shy! Only pushy people succeed while looking for offshore oil rig jobs.</div>

<b>Search for any recruitment agent</b> that does hiring for the offshore oil industry before you post your resume and cover letter. You aren't looking for a job as a waiter or a clerk. With a risk to sound sycophantic, find an oil rig job recruiter and buy him a lunch or dinner if necessary.<br />
<br />
You don't need to worry about this, because the oil rig jobs are though and it's not that easy to get oil rig jobs with no experience. This step is very important because an experience oil rig recruiter is able to keep you away from making mistakes while applying for a job. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most of the off offshore oil rig companies keep old resumes, cover letters of job applicants for several years. If you resume has been once stamped "Rejected!" today, you will not have any other opportunity at that company for at least 1 or even 2 years.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<li style="text-align: justify;">People, looking for oil rig jobs in UK assume that oil rig companies will not employ oil rig workers in this time of the year.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Oil rig drillers, <a href="http://drillingrigs.blogspot.com/2013/11/oil-rig-jobs-in-uk-drillers-derrickmen.html" target="_blank">Roughnecks</a>, Roustabouts, Motorman, Helpers, Deckhands, Stewards etc., are widding down for the Christmas holidays and they probably start thinking: "I will find a job in the new year."</li>
</ol>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's an opportunity for those people that need to give themselves an edge over other oil rig jobs seekers. We are going to use an example with the <b>oil rig jobs in Australian market</b> to express what opportunity we see but this theory may apply for oil rig jobs market in other countries only with distinct circumstances.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Right at the mentioned time interval between October and January when people stop looking for oil rig jobs, the Australian oil rig companies and even gas companies are hiring more <i>oil rig workers</i>. Extra drillers and staff are being employed during the Summer to manage with the hot conditions on the oil rig platforms. Some people may not agree with the fact that most positions are filled as November hits, there is still a chance for oil rig job seekers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Indeed, some of the new oil rig workers weren't out to work on an offshore oil rig platform, so many of the new oil rig workers that just began are likely to quit after a few weeks or less. Even though, there are less positions going, the total number of potential oil rig workers that look for a drilling job at this time of the year is less than 1/10 of what it is in other months. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Oil rig job seekers usually make mistakes while making assumptions when the simply truth is that they are not enough aware of the <i>oil and gas industry market</i> condition to be making assumptions about when is good time to apply for the job. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Just giving an example, best time for <i>oil rig job opportunity</i> if you were living in Canada would not be because of the "hot summer." But you may think about reasons why other oil rig job seekers would be saying "it's not the best time to apply for oil rig job position" and chances are that's exactly when you must be handing in your application.</div>

I've spoken to many people about <a href="http://drillingrigs.blogspot.com/2013/07/how-to-work-on-offshore-oil-rigs.html" target="_blank">how to get a job on an offshore oil rig</a> with no experience and there is one answer that comes up all the time that I find quite funny. People usually use “Yea but <em>you need to have experience</em> to get a job on offshore oil rigs”.<br /><br />The <em>oil rig jobs with no experience</em> remind me about the joke about “what comes 1st, the chicken or the egg?” because how does anyone ever get experience on oil rigs if you have to have experience before you can get an oil rig job? It doesn’t make any sense.<br /><br />This is the real truth and lots of people are not going to like it. This excuse plus many others that people make up are nothing more than a lie, which they tell themselves because it’s easier admitting to themselves that they are just too lazy to go through the effort to find good <strong>oil rig jobs no experience</strong>!</div>

Think about it for a while… You can walk onto an oil rig platform no experience at the <strong>entry level position</strong> and earn somewhere around <em>$70,000 for working half of the year</em>. Of course there are going to be challenges trying to get into the oil and gas industry, because everybody know that finding an oil rig job with no experience is not a easy job. These are highly sought after positions so they are not going to hire every Tom, Dick and Harry who decides to hand in a<strong> resume for oil rig worker</strong> with no experience.<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Who would you prefer take advice from? Someone that has actually done it or someone that failed and made up an excuse to justify their laziness - offshore oil rig jobs with no experience is not easy to be found, but not impossible?<br /><br />The real truth is that, <u>no experience oil rig jobs</u> do exist and 90% of the oil rig jobs no experience that you will have to do in the early days on the offshore oil rig you could teach a monkey to do. Your #1 priority when you get on the offshore oil rig is to watch and learn as QUICKLY as you can. The offshore oil rig company you work for is soon enough going to know if you were worth hiring but in the beginning all you need is the ability to follow instructions and a good work ethic for getting and keeping an offshore oil rig job with no experience.<br /><br />Many had <em>no experience when they got an oil rig job</em> so you can too!</div>

As global demand for offshore oil rig grows, the oil rig industry is under increasing pressure to expand exploration and drilling operations. Many of the <a href="http://drillingrigs.blogspot.com/2013/04/offshore-oil-rig-job-companies.html" target="_blank">offshore oil rig companies</a> are capitalizing on relaxed restrictions of the government and technological advances to maximize production of the drilling rigs. The new offshore oil rigs they build require offshore oil rig workers to man them. Jobs on the offshore oil rigs are physically demanding and the conditions of work on the<i> drilling rigs are usually dangerous</i>, but offshore oil rig workers earn good wages, usually gain promotions, and are able to work in locations all over the world. If you need to <u>learn how to work on an offshore oil rig no experience</u>, there are some guidelines.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
1) You should assess your ability to work under <i>challenging circumstances on the offshore oil rigs</i>. </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most oil rig jobs no experience require hard labor under trying conditions on the drilling rigs. Entry-level oil rig workers no experience, like <u>roughnecks oil rig worker</u> and roustabouts, may expect certain challenges. <br /><ul>
<li>Shifts: Most of the offshore oil rig workers on the drilling rigs, both onshore and offshore, work grueling 12-hour shifts per day. Rotations may vary, but most <u>offshore oil rig companies</u> keep oil rig crews on site for 2 weeks and then give oil rig workers 2 weeks off.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Labor on oil rigs: Entry-level offshore oil rig jobs no experience are physically taxing. Most involve moving on supplies and<i> heavy equipment on drilling rigs</i>, like <i>drill pipes</i>.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Weather: <b>Offshore and onshore drilling rigs</b> offer distinct challenges for oil rig workers no experience. Most oilfields in the US are in the unforgiving climate of the Southwest, where summertime temperatures are usually over 37,7 C. Oil drilling in the petroleum-rich fields of Canada reaches full capacity during the bitterly cold winter months, when the frozen ground is better able to withstand heavy equipment and exploration procedures on the drilling rigs. Offshore oil rig workers are at the mercy of the elements, too. North Sea offhore drilling rig platforms are battered year-round by strong winds and unyielding waves. Oil rigs dotting the United States coastline in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_of_Mexico" target="_blank">Gulf of Mexico</a> are on alert during the hurricane season 1st of June 1 to 30th of November.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Danger at the oil rigs: The contents of an offshore oil well are under extreme pressure, but this is only part of the danger offshore oil rig workers face every day. Cranes of drilling rigs are constantly moving massive sections of pipe across the drilling rig platform. Highly combustible gases are used in everyday operations, which include welding and pipe-cutting. </li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><h3>
2) Pursue applicable training and <b>certification for the offshore oil rigs</b>. </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While <i>entry-level oil rig jobs no experience</i> are plentiful and technically do not require any experience, few oil rig companies are going to hire a "green hand" to work on their billion-dollar oil rig platforms. Generally, offshore oil rig workers only need to be 18 or older, have a high school diploma and pass a pre-employment drug test. Successful applicants have generally pursued offshore oil rig training independently or bring transferable experience to the drilling rig job. All oil rig workers need to meet certain minimum standards and certifications to work on an offshore drilling rig. These include: <br /><ul>
<li><u>Current work visa for oil rig job no experience</u>: Most oil rig companies are going to arrange for a current work visa for oil rig workers, working outside their native country.</li>
<li>Immunizations: Offshore oil rig jobs no experience are available in some of the world's most exotic locations, which include the coasts of Africa and the waters of Southeast Asia. Oil rig workers from other areas often get oil rig jobs in these regions, but they should complete a full course of immunizations before they will be hired on the oil rig.</li>
<li><i>Specialized training courses for oil rig workers no experience</i>: Many trade drilling rig schools and colleges offer classes on various facets of the drilling rig industry, which include oil rig work. Most classes blend coursework with hands-on, field experience. Oil rig companies generally secure training for oil rig workers no experience looking to advance their careers in specialized fields.</li>
<li><b>Certification for oil rig work no experience</b>: All offshore drilpling rig workers are required to earn an <a href="http://www.contractorsunlimited.co.uk/guides/offshoresurvival.shtml" target="_blank">Offshore Survival & Firefighting certificate</a>. Specialized offshore oil rig workers, such as electricians, scaffolders and welders, must hold a state-issued license or certificate if they want to work on drilling rig. </li>
</ul>
<h3>
3) Decide what offshore oil rig job is best for you. </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A drilling rig is a place where oil rig workers no experience may work hard to get ahead. Most crane operators on the oil rigs, shift supervisors and other skilled offshore oil rig workers started out in entry-level positions. They set themselves apart by pursuing advanced offshore oil rig training and accepting additional assignments. Inexperienced drilling rig workers may start their careers in any one of several drilling rig jobs, which include: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><ul>
<li>Roughneck: Roughneck oil rig workers are general laborers that usually work on the oil rig deck. They move equipment and supplies, and also they are accountable for cleaning equipment and work areas on the offshore oil rig.</li>
<li>Roustabout: These offshore oil rig workers are involved in drilling operations on the drilling rigs. They usually move sections of drill pipe and clean spill. Roustabouts oil rig workers aspire to one day become the tool pusher, the senior supervisor on an oil rig.</li>
<li>Helper: Helpers on the oil rig assist skilled oil rig workers, serving as apprentices for oil rig electricians, lead welders and heavy-equipment operators on the drilling rig.</li>
<li>Painter: Drilling rigs, in particular, should be painted constantly to protect the structure from the corrosive effects of saltwater. This is hazardous duty, as painters generally should be suspended in harnesses to reach remote regions of the platform.</li>
<li>Motorman: Motormen on the drilling rigs maintain and repair all rig machinery, whichi include generators and deck equipment.</li>
<li>Deckhand: Deckhand oil rig workers build tow lines to provide barges and vessels to the structure, facilitating loading and offloading of cargo.</li>
<li>Steward: Housekeeping needs, which include laundry service and janitorial duties on the offshore oil rigs, should be met to assure the smooth operation of an offshore oil rig.</li>
<li>Assistant chef oil rig worker: Galley hands that include assistant chefs, work around the clock to prepare meals for all shifts. This is an offshore oil rig job where mainstream experience is directly transferable to <b>duties on the drilling rig</b>.</li>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<em>When a lot of people looking for offshore oil rig job set out in search of offshore oil rig vacancies, they generally expect to find oil rig jobs, which are physically draining and work environments that are fundamentally unsafe.</em><br />
<br />
And while its true that lots of offshore oil rig vacancies are for oil rig jobs, which are extremely physically demanding, there are a number of <a href="http://www.joboilrig.com/2012/04/find-oil-rig-job-with-no-experience.html" target="_blank">oil rig vacancies</a>, which are not common with the drilling work, which is the most physically-demanding type of offshore oil rig job.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some of the more common non-drilling oil rig job vacancies include:</div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://s2b.experience.com/alumnus/article?channel_id=energy_utilities&source_page=additional_articles&article_id=article_1128902416846" target="_blank">Radio operators</a> on offshore oil rigs</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Engineers on offshore oil rigs</strong></div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Catering staff on offshore oil rig platforms</strong></div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A closer look at a couple of the above-noted offshore oil rig vacancies paints a pretty bright picture for any <strong>oil rig job seeker</strong> that needs to avoid extremely physical work.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An offshore oil rig radio operator jobs - that, in addition to radio operations on offshore oil rigs, also serve the critical function of being the center of all oil rig logistics in emergency situations - pay an average of around $42,000 per year. You will need a radio operators license for this type of oil rig job.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An <strong>offshore oil rigs catering department</strong> also provides an example of oil rig jobs that do are not as demanding as offshore oil drilling jobs. Additionally, to the head chef and cook oil rig jobs, there is also a camp boss, a team of stewards, bakers, and so forth. The camp boss is the most senior catering position on an offshore oil rig and it typically pays around $55,000 per year.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And since an offshore oil rig is a non-stop operation, food is needed - and served - around the clock. This means there may be many offshore oil rig vacancies on a rig for catering department jobs.<br />

The best advice, when considering which <strong>offshore oil rig vacancies to apply for</strong>, is to take a look at <strong>your own skill</strong> set and interests. If working outdoors in an extremely physically demanding role -exposed to unsafe conditions - is either beyond your possibilities or simply does not appeal to you (or both), then you are better off thinking about one of the many different types of <strong>non-drilling offshore oil rig vacancies</strong>.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Non-drilling offshore oil rig vacancies may offer you the best of both worlds in that you will still reap many of the same rewards of the lifestyle (offshore oil rig workers commonly work on a 14-day; 21-day; rotation, with no meal or accommodation costs), but you will not have to put as much of yourself on the line physically.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And, who knows? Maybe through your exposure to <strong>non-drilling offshore oil rig jobs</strong> you will find yourself warming up to the idea of a more physical role. So much so that you may, in future, find yourself keeping an eye out for any offshore oil rig vacancies, which are going to make bigger demands of you physically (and with bigger demands, come bigger rewards).</div>

<strong>Offshore oil rig jobs</strong> are the hot new oil rig jobs for this coming decade, bumping IT and finance from their perch. These are some of the oil rig jobs in the upstream oil industry, where you search for oil and drill for it. Then there is the midstream, where you refine and transport the oil. Finally, there are the down stream oil rig jobs, where you sell and distribute the finished product – offshore oil rig jobs.
</div>

Offshore oil rig jobs</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Upstream is where both the greatest demand and the greatest competition lies. Most of these jobs are international and require a lot of travel. Employees on offshore oil rigs here often <strong>work in Alaska</strong>, the Arctic, Canada and the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_East" target="_blank">Middle East</a> as <strong>offshore oil rig workers</strong>. The people on the really sharp end are the geologists who search for oil and the people who support them, doing seismic testing and test drilling. Should you try to get in here? This is a judgment call. If you started a university degree for offshore oil rig worker with the related qualifications 2to 5 years ago, you would be in a very good position to<strong> find an oil rig job</strong>. Many of the oil rig company staff here would be in their 50s and 60s, some of them recalled from retirement. If you start today, you'll get your degree for oil rig worker in 3 to 5 years time. Demand for a geologist would probably not be as strong. If you have started your geology degree, this is a good time to get the specializations you need to branch into this line of work –<em> offshore oil rig jobs</em>.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A better choice for someone starting out is to <u><a href="http://drillingrigs.blogspot.com/2013/04/offshore-oil-rig-job-companies.html" target="_blank">get an offshore oil rig job</a></u> as a<strong> roughneck or roustabout</strong>. While you are technically a laborer, your salary is better than many managers on oil rigs (unless they work for a tobacco company). Let your high school peers enjoy their better-sounding titles. You get to laugh all the way to the bank. Additionally, if you show the right attitude and skills, you can work your way up the hierarchy from roustabout on offshore oil rigs all the way up to derrickman, driller and <em><a href="http://www.planitplus.net/careerzone/areas/?pid=nf&secl=10eo&id=511" target="_blank">oil rig manager</a> – oil rig jobs</em>. Whether or not you make it to oil rig manager, do remember history. Oil prices are eventually going to drop again after about 1 decade. Save some of your salary and use it to build your nest egg. Don't blow all your salary on beer and cigarettes and living the high life. Make sure you can retire when the oil boom ends.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another good choice is to get a good trade skill like<em> electrician, mechanic, medic or cook on oil rigs</em>. These are some of the support positions also needed on an offshore oil rig. You don't get labeled as a laborer, but you still get a good salary and excellent benefits. For spending six months every year in the middle of nowhere, you get more pay than your peer working on land. It is still a pretty good deal. In addition, when the oil market bubble bursts again, you have your trade skills to get by – offshore oil rig jobs.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even without the specialized skills of the driller on oil rigs, you can still get an offshore oil rig job. You can work your way up from roustabout, or you can get in through a trade skill in a support <strong>position on oil rig jobs</strong>.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /> </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />We would say that electrical, mechanical or engineering types of certificates (offshore oil rig jobs), diplomas and degrees justify most of the positions on offshore oil rigs. These would cover jobs like: oil rig managers and supervisors, oil rig mechanical and electrical engineers, drillers, tool-pushers and roughnecks, fitters, welders and boilermakers, mechanical maintenance staff, riggers, oil rig diesel mechanics, oil rig mechanics, oil rig compressor technicians, oil rig crane operators, etc. There are also roustabouts or deckhands on the oil rigs, which are generally skilled or semi-skilled staff and functionas cleaners, assistants and general tasks on the offshore oil rigs.<br /> <br />Qualifications in Oil and Petrochemical regions account for many oil rig positions on the oil rigs for operators and subsurface engineers. Geological qualifications also account for some positions on oil rigs such as: oil rig mud engineers and oil rig mud loggers. As safety and environmental protection is a huge responsibility on offshore oil rigs, qualifications in that region could get you a job on oil rigs. Deep water scuba divers are also employed by offshore oil rigs, even though this oil rig job career is not advised for too many years as it takes its toll on the human body (offshore oil rig jobs).<br /> <br />Doctors and paramedics (employed on offshore oil rigs) are important and may be found on any large offshore oil rig. If it’s a small manned platform, the doctor is only going to be a short trip away by vessel. Staff with IT diplomas on the oil rigs are found on offshore oil rigs too. <br /><br />There are also the chefs and cooking and catering type certification is required on the offshore oil rigs. Oil rig Cleaners, which keep the livingquarters, offices, galley and bathrooms clean, wash the washing, empty and sort garbage also make up an important part of the offshore oil rig staff. Without them, no one would want to work on the offshore oil rigs. Offshore oil rigs mostly look for staff already experienced in offshore oil rig work or trained specifically for offshore operations. The main reason for this is because of the busy and schedule and hazardous environment on oil rigs. This makes it hard to look after inexperienced oil rig workers, but this isn’t always the case. You should start somewhere.<br /> <br />Experience is crucial though. Needless to say, oil rig companies are extremely good at QHSE (Quality, Health, Safety, Environment) management and accident prevention nowadays. If you are interested in working on oil rigs and need to know the qualifications needed to do so, there are some to factor in. Depending on the type of oil rig job, you might need a college degree. Some labor jobs you don’t need any kind of skills and may be trained for oil rig jobs.</div>

Oil Rig Jobs - Life Conditions and Other opportunities</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Every applicant for a oil rig worker to this kind of job wonders how it must be like to live in such environment. Certainly, the extreme isolation of so peculiar a place, the presence of such hostile surroundings as it is the open ocean and the cold or very hot weather conditions leave nobody impassive. Offshore oil rigs and oil rig jobs.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXJ7R-J5TlEia06RCmlHp-frPQFVIPal57eVcohfsbygqBDVJFYUmNQ6kq2H4A9mLaFizF2vAeW5pBsgC27x2nOpFLPyQpAkVro1XxCDu4q-UfCMSURXKv-XsmaY1TAsxdyOfmWqD1Kgkf/s1600/Oil+Rig+Jobs+-+Life+Conditions.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXJ7R-J5TlEia06RCmlHp-frPQFVIPal57eVcohfsbygqBDVJFYUmNQ6kq2H4A9mLaFizF2vAeW5pBsgC27x2nOpFLPyQpAkVro1XxCDu4q-UfCMSURXKv-XsmaY1TAsxdyOfmWqD1Kgkf/s1600/Oil+Rig+Jobs+-+Life+Conditions.jpg" height="188" width="320" /></a>Offshore oil rigs and oil rig jobs - It must be considered that conditions vary according to the different posts. Drilling, metallurgical or construction employees and their respective assistants work outdoors in hash conditions; geologists and engineers divide their tasks between offices, inside the oil rig platform, and deck areas, outside, enjoying an intermediate conditions; and managers, executive and administrative oil rig staff work in the offices, in the most comfortable situation.</div>
<br />
Nevertheless, living conditions on oil rigs have improved considerably and, nowadays, many offshore installations meet hotel standards <em>Offshore oil rigs and oil rig jobs.</em><br />
<br />
On arrival at the place, new employees are provided with all they need to guarantee a safe and comfortable stay. Everybody is provided with overall, safety boots and glasses and hard hat, and, afterwards, they are all shown the whole installation.<br />
<br />
Economically, working aboard an oil rig or platform is quite profitable. Certainly, income and benefits in this sort of oil rig jobs are considerably higher than any similar land-based positions. Additionally, all the possible expenses on oil rigs, such as food, accommodation and travel when going to and leaving from the workplace, are paid for by company, which means that you can bank everything. And it is this way even working aboard a local platform. Although, working in a foreign country as a oil rig worker is financially more attractive.<br />
<br />
Most of the oil and gas companies are based on places as Venezuela, Brazil, Middle East, North Sea or Scandinavian coast. This means that the oil rig workers have to fly long distances to reach their respective workplaces or to meet family and friends. All this is at the company´s expense.<br />
<br />
Schedules and shifts are another important subject. They vary, depending on the company and the type of position. A very common type of schedule consists in 14 days on, followed by 21 days off; another systems are based on working for 1 or 2 weeks, rotating off the platform for the same period; or 1 month on and 1 month off; and, sometimes, due to the speciality of the service, you will have to work until the job is finished.<br />
<br />

But, it must be considered that the employees are in the workplace 24 hours a day, which avoids the problems inherent in land-based jobs, such as getting up hurriedly to drive to the job site, having meals or snacks hastily, etc.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, time off is one of the attractive side of this sort of posts. Few positions of oil rig jobs offer the workers so much time to carry out their private and familiar activities or to dedicate to another job or business. Offshore oil rigs and oil rig jobs.<br />
<br />
While on board on oil rigs, you may spend your time off in a wide variety of amenities and amusements, because modern offshore installations offer an interesting range of leisure activities, designed to ensure a comfortable rest. There are modern satellite TV and phones, updated selection of videos, gym, sauna, video games, connection to Internet, etc.<br />
<br />
The well-being of the employees is essential to avoid stress and ensure the quality of work.<br />
<br />

The great combination of concreete and steel forms the giant offshore oil rig structures that sit on the seabed. The <b>oil rig platforms</b> are designed to help offshore oil rig workers to drill the wells further into ground and produce greater levels of hydrocarbons.<br />
<br />
<b>Jack-up oil rig platform:</b> the so called Jack-up oil rig platform is a mobile structure, which instead of floating over the area of drill like a semi-submersible, has a long leg mounted on that helps to lower or raise the entire oil rig platform in and out of the water.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
This kind of an offshore oil rig platform is able to operate around 500 feet in depth of water. The Jack-up oil rig platforms are usually used in North Sea, as those areas aren't too deep.<br />

<b>Drill vessel:</b> this is a unique drilling platform, in a shape of vessel. The drill vessel is an offshore oil rig platform that doesn't need a tug or tugs to keep in place, unluke the Semi-submersible and Jack-up oil rig platforms.</div>

<br />
Flotels oil rig platforms: a Flotel oil rig platform is a structure that is being made up of a Semi-submersible, which has been changed to suit a new purpose. The Flotels are designed with the opportunity to be attached to a Semi-submersible and give additional accomodation for added employees. The Flotels also provides extra place for leisure and catering activities.<br />
<br />
<b>Floating Production & Storage Units: </b>the floating production and storage unit is a facility that can be attached to the seabed and it is being used to store the produced oil until the tanker may ship it to land. This structure can be made from facilities like tankers or semi-submersibles, to store the oil, produced on the oil rigs.</div>
