Selani,

It's (Doha reader) man not (Doha boy), lol,

Welcome man,

Doha reader already gave the names of the recruters, but I don't know any of them.

Wondering where do you know all these recruters (doha reader), are you working with one of them, lol.

I will try to ask the guys here about something might be useful for you, and good luck.

Doha reader,

enjoy your meeting ;)

Peace

:D

I never knew such asimple question would stir such a lively debate. Actually I'm planning to move a carrer change to offshore drilling. Right now I am desparetly looking for any tip/ clue/ advice how the hell can i get onto a platform. I have plenty of HSE experience in petroleum, but not drilling.

Any help would be highly appreciated.PM me if you want to keep it quite.

Just joking, orget it man, I know we come to QL to get out of our working environment, lol, we better stay away of each other, :), because when we meet we will be talking about oilfield all the time, right? lol.

..Roughneck is one of several roles in the hierarchy on an oil rig. A roughneck's duties could include anything involved with the connecting and "tripping" of pipe down the well bore, and the roughneck is the person when it comes to general work around the rig. The roughneck is part of the crew.

more details? check it here...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roughneck
