Well the beauty of working in the oil patch is you can live where you want. I'm a captain of an offshore supply vessel. I fly to work and fly home. There are all sort if hitches(work schedule) depending on what you get into. 28-14. 14-14. 7-7. 14-7. 28-28. These are days on and days off. I currently work 28-14. Studying now to upgrade to a big boy license and the pay rate goes up enough ill work 14-14 at some point in the near future. 6 months a year off ain't bad.

I have a good acquaintance that works in the rugs and does the 28/28......I agree like you said the 14/14 sounds much better to someone like me as well.

That's ok. I've wanted a fountain since I was 10. My next purchase will be a 42 fountain.

My big thing is I am not willing to relocate. I am willing to go offshore for "X" amount of time but at the end of whatever travel I want to be at home Herr in Clearwater.

So in have been looking around Port of Tampa so far. Have not came across much but that's cause I know we don't have much.

As ICU mentioned, this is where the jobs are advertised. They will fly you home after your gig. Try the big city papers or rigzone.com

Wow didn't know there that many oil/ gas field brothers here I work for a service company in the marcellus shale play here in pa. the best parts of up here is you can find companys where you get to go.home everyday. Lots of jobs down south but there's a lot of big companys leaving the.south all together and moving up here I would deffently keep that option open we can boat to our jobs though

I'm offshore. These guys can't leave down here for up there. Lol plus I love living where I do so I'm ok with not going home every night. I like my 2 weeks at a clip off.

I am with ya, I love were I live and if I ever did move it would be south more, not north.

I would be fine doing 14/14 and coming back home to here then home everyday but living up north.
