The safety systems involved are very thorough.You can’t pick your nose without a Permit.
Kenny ive worked in many classified areas and been to many orientations and you have the safety people watching you with binoculars and they are very strickbut I guess it’s for our own protection

I wouldn’t doubt that you have to where a safety harness when you go crap and tie off to the toilet. I’ve worked in many places where if they catch you violating safety policies you are immediately escorted off the property
 
The lads I know on the rigs in the north sea, last time I spoke to them did either 1 month on, 1 month off or 3 months on 1 month off.

Until about 3 years ago most of the British sector were 2 weeks on 3 weeks off. About 3 years ago there was a price crash and lots of places went 3 weeks on 3 weeks off. Things are slowly picking up and Rita’s improving to 3 on 4 off etc.
 
Rigs on the Bass strait. Rigs in East Timor all have 4 to a room. That’s about 25 rigs

Thats pretty archaic, the British North Sea is almost exclusively 2 men or less, the Norwegian North Sea is almost always 1 man cabins. Anyone with a trade is 2 man or less in west Africa in my experience.

Did a lot of maintenance work on Fuel installations, but most of my kater experience was security orientated, UPs, standby etc.
 
I’ll say this that you have been around the block a few times and I also assume you know class 1 div 1 areas very well

Looking at the definition that’s what ATEX would refer to as Zone 0. Instrument/electrical equipment in these areas is pretty sparse. The vast majority of hazardous areas are Zone 2.
