Wondered what your role was saw your post on going on the rigs... Most of my experience is in oil and gas electrical switchgear I still have the opportunity to go on the rigs but unfortunatley it wont just be rig work it will be so many weeks in qatar so many weeks in saudi basically all the shit hole places no one else wants to work. I worked for most of a year on the London Underground as a commissioning engineer and senior authorised person. The money was great but it was just constant working away and Im from huddersfield so its a four hour drive from home. Just wanted to come back to a standard factory role or a site based role with a area like yorkshire/north west but there just isnt any work.
Also where you working at the moment?
