Daffy D Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Oh! OK I get it offshore but not as on a rig We used to call it Overseas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben155 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Basically any mining or drilling etc that's done offshore off your home country people refer to as offshore these days, some mining companies even name themselves as such and such offshore minning!

Daffy D Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Getting a bit confusing Always considered offshore as in rigs and platforms and dodgy money transactions Progress I guess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben155 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yeah not sure when it started but it is what it is. However there are a few companies starting to develop new deep sea mining ships, so in a few years we might have another name " offshore, offshore mining" ?
