Hi all,

I am a fresh grad here with a degree in Water & Wastewater Technology.
CGPA 3.75.

If I wanna work offshore, what position is suitable?
Anyway, does oil rig need people to treat water or wastewater on board so that people working there can have safer water to use and wastewater get to be cleaned before recycle or dump away?

Potable water engineer

You on lowan golila or deedee3?

Iraq oil fields should be relatively safe compared to a friend of mine who used to work in Afghanistan.

He was working in a civil construction company which was sub contracted by the US military base of kabul to do god knows what work. He told me eventhough his scope of work was within the US base itself, it was naturally a prime target for insurgents and every so often, the emergency siren would blare in the middle of the night when the insurgents attacked the bases and all of they staff had to don their flak jackets and retreat to the underground bunkers.

He only worked for 3 terms before his wife and family begged him to stop working there eventhough the money was good.

On the rig, we have mechanic that will take the sample of portable water,drinking water etc and periodically send to onshore for the analysis.

Mechanic also will make sure the water makers are working and in good condition.

Rowan Gorilla already pulled out from ANGsi kan??? Now is DD3 at ANDP-E....

heard another anchor cable snapped.wahh malaysian seas pun rough mcm their mat salleh counter parts.

I was told this has something to do with the relatively shallow waters of South China Sea. The sea is pretty calm in the West Africa deep-water regions.

No la, gorila still staying at D for few months more.

Weather is quite bad now. I just got back from offshore after 43 days out. 3 meter waves

Now is not a good time for those living near the sea and ocean?>?

sea side ok, water rarely rises up but if youre futher in land tuh yg masalah.its worst if near a river without adequate draining....sure the water over flow.
