From Geordie Offshore Shetland

There are more offshore oil rig jobs than you have listed on your great website. Why not include the full range of job opportunities such as: Driller, Derrickman, Shakerhand or Mudman, Toolpusher, Floormen or Roughnecks, Motorman, Assistant Driller, Crane Operator, Roustabouts, Cleaner/Painter,Storekeeper, Mechanic/Electrician, Sub Sea Engineer, Rig Mechanic, Rig Electrician, Rig Welder, Barge Engineer, Ballast Controlman or Watchstander, Captain and Chief Engineer, Rig Medic and Safety Man. Most offshore oil rig jobs call for a 14/14 day rotation that means you work for 14 days and have 14 off. This equates to you having half of the year off on holiday.

From Craig Location Offshore Aberdeen

From 'Scotty' Location Stranraer

its a very good industry to get into and there is still a chance to progress just like you say. i work 6 weeks on, 6 weeks off, and earn the same as mentioned on your website, dont do no overtime, but have the option of working in my leave, if i wer to work 4 weeks of every leave i got, my wage would probably be in excess of 70k. there will always be a job for me on the ocean, and because i'm experienced, doubt i'll ever be unemployed again.

From "Poncho" Offshore Tartan Oilfield

While many of the offshore oil rig jobs are physical in nature, many of the rig companies go out of their way to make sure your time spent onboard is an enjoyable one. For instance employees may find themselves living in accommodation wings that meet 4 or 5 star hotel standards - despite the fact that you a living in the middle of the ocean. While you are on board the company will usually meet all food, board and laundry expenses, along with travel and transfer costs.

Comments from Rig'ers can be posted to us here:

The Benefits: Opportunities for advancement working on the rigs are excellent. It is not uncommon for a person starting at the bottom with no previous oil field experience to be making  £65,000 - 75,000 a year - for working only six months out of the year - usually by 2 weeks onboard and 2 weeks off.  

Education: The majority of entry level oil rig jobs do not require a formal education as the employer is more interested in your ability to do your job well. Some jobs require at least a secondary level school education. Other positions, as they get more complex, will naturally require higher levels of education.

Health Requirements. The first and foremost requirement, for working on the rigs offshore, is that you are in sound physical condition.

Onshore Experience. Most onshore experience is transferable, for example if you have heavy labouring experience, on say a construction site, then that could stand you in good stead as an oil rig roustabout or roughneck. If you have any mechanic skills that will be valuable too, because mechanics, fitters, and welders are currently in great demand on offshore oil rigs.

Ex-Service People have a great opportunity to use their skills - for example: Motor Transport Fitters, Diesel Mechanics, Engine Room Mechs, etc, etc. are always needed.

Entry Level Catering and Galley-Hand Jobs There are always offshore oil rig catering jobs and cleaning jobs too, so the opportunities are there to be had - if it were not so, then who do you think would crew the rigs? If others can land an Oil Rig Job - then so can YOU.

Offshore Work Experience on Oil Rigs: Once you get on-board and have gained some work experience you will have the opportunity to advance into many different areas involved in all phases of the industry.

How far you want to go is up to you - the Oil Companies recognise ambition and will pay you while attending courses. From the writer's personal experience that is true of Exxon Mobil, Esso and BP, and probably all the other well-known Oil Companies too. They will PAY YOU to advance.

Interest: Showing a keen interest in the job will play a very important part in your getting and keeping a job on offshore oil rigs.
