I can attest that my work offshore does not include 'amusing' my male colleagues. I pull as much weight as anybody else out there.
But yes.. I've only mentioned the academic qualifications so far.. you must be a team player but also be capable to lead a crew.. must posses excellent communication skills since you will be working in a multinational environment. While on the job I must be able to understand whatever it is that I am required to do when given the instructions... a misunderstanding can cost potentially millions of dollars in lost production time, revenue and equipment. Believe me the working environment is noisy as hell, hazardous and there's plenty of distractions.. often times I can't even hear what my supervisor is asking me to do above all the noise.. you might have radio/walkie talkie but interference is almost always there and you end up listening so some garbled mess.
in this case, it really cut my interest to work in O&G industry. better for me to be a planner. working in the office most of the time. constantly expose to 100-120db of noise will make u deaf at anytime But yes..
