richard_smith237 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 A few Ideas could be put to vote: O&G Forum O&G Offshore Forum O&G & Mining Forum Energy Sector Forum I personally think O&G Forum is good enough...

I'm not sure I'd like to see a Specific O&G forum over run with Job Advertisements - There are enough agencies e-mailing all and sundry who cover this already.

Which is fine if said jobs from said emails and agencies come to fruition,where as I have worked for this contact many times.

What do you guys say? Does exactly what it says on the tin,Offshore Workers Forum.
IrishIvan Posted March 10, 2013 Author Posted March 10, 2013 Good suggestion - I'm in. Offshore Expat Forum seems a sensible name... Yes, it is the best for the search engines as well. Will set it up now, Might get confused with offshore investments, banking etc. if that's the name? Maybe better to call it something like "Oil & Gas and other Offshore expat work". Would suggest having it as a sub-forum to the "Jobs, economy, banking, business, investments" forum. I strongly disagree. I think keep it away from the employment section of thaivisa. Put it on the front page of the community forum. If the name presents a problem call it offshore oil and gas expat community forum
GooEng Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 I also like the name Offshore Workers Forum - covers all the bases. Also agree with the idea that its a community type forum not related to employment - again covering all bases. Sent from my iPad-mini.

richard_smith237 Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Offshore Workers Forum sounds ok... A name is just a name anyway - the forum is only as good as the content in it...

Located here: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/forum/172-offshore-workers-forum/ We will move some offshore related topics here so we get a little jump start. Cheers

jduxbury2000 Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Hi, Could anyone point me in the right direction to getting offshore? I'm in the Merchant Navy serving as an AB working 3 months on, 3 months in Thailand. I've got Sparrows Stage 2, BOSIET, all medicals, STCW 95 BST. I really need some help. Most agencies don't care and companies don't respond back. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out in this matter. I'm certified to work on offshore vessels and platforms and I'm ready to go now. I'm 26 years old and a UK passport holder. Thanks for your time gents. Kind regards John Duxbury

Ghostmanthai Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Bored right now. Can't remember how to post a picture. Would post the well testing we did. Was a good show and a nice flame.
samsucci Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 I am an engineer on a warm stacked drillship in Singapore. I will marry s sweet Thai woman next year and would love to stay in the area. I would do anything to get away from drilling as this industry is filled with syncophantic unworthy rednecks who actually believe they are worth the money they make. I suppose I am as bad because I cannot leave this industry because I am starting to believe I am worth the silly money they pay. Regardless I would do anything to go back to dive support or seismic with a slash in pay just regain my self respect
CGW Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 Where would the drilling industry be without the "sycophantic unworthy rednecks" your definitely in the wrong industry if you need to be told what to do, have no input and don't believe you earn your pay check. You would be far better off on a cushy dive or seismic vessel, cruising by.......... Good luck!

But when they get promoted to management without ever bothering to learn people skills and a little patience, they're a menace to themselves, their people and to the public. The problem with working for a dinosaur is that it's virtually impossible to excel because they won't accept a threat to their fiefdom. And people with twice their IQ and their education are a threat, even if they can't puff out their chests and outshout the boss.
maria277 Posted April 22, 2017 Posted April 22, 2017 How is that forum for Offshore workers in Thailand going?

That's the case everywhere in every other industry not only the Oil field. Are you a young grad?
