My job is not glamorous and very few people have a clue what I do even after I explain it to them, but most people understand when I tell them I work for an offshore drilling company. Few perks come along with working for an offshore drilling company, but one fun opportunity is getting to go on one of the drilling rigs. Not something your average Joe gets a chance to do. One of the rigs was in the Sabine Pass Yard for some repairs and inspections, so my group took a trip to visit. Was actually my 3rd time on a rig, but I think that this may be the 1st photo I've taken on one.
Group photo on the helideck. The structure directly behind us is one of the legs on the rig. Bethany with a mildly crooked hard hat..
Photo from the yard with the rig in the background. The rig is in the water jacked up about 10' above the water line. It is a big chunk of steel that can still float somehow. And in this one my hard hat is really crooked. Nice.
