I'm a Hydraulics tech working in Norway on a 2 weeks on 4 weeks off rota.
Pay more tax working in Norway, but the union system in Norway is first class & provides excellent benefits.
Just putting the finishing touched to the new rig before starting a 5 year contract, happy days!
Agencies are a very good way to get started, I worked for one for first 2 years. I know that most of them are looking for people right now.Posted 1 year ago # -
What agencies?
I used to look on oilcareers (i think it was called that)
A lot of the internet ones appear to be - pay us a 100quid and we'll let you look.

What agencies?
You'll do a lot worse than give Staffhunt a call.
They got me offshore with zero experience, pay above the industry standard for my area of expertise and are pretty much the best "employers" I've worked for - I'm still with them (as a contractor) 4 years down the line despite numerous attempts to poach me by the various platforms I've worked on. They don't charge, and if they don't have anything that would suit you they at least can point you in the right direction.

Oliverd1981, hope you don't mind me asking, what kind of instrumentation do you have on an offshore platform?
I'm an Inst Tech on a refinery in the UK, and considering future options. I'm not concerned about the huet training etc, just wondering if there are any areas of skills I may lack.
Daily routines include calibrating transmitters, valves, checking alarms and safety trip systems, compressor supervisory systems, and various other work associated with the role.
Also think the rotation system would be good as giving me more time at home, as I tend to work a fair bit of overtime.
