What kind of people work at the rig?Our rigs always have about 100 people on board, and in addition to our personnel, there are personnel from oil development companies that are our customers and personnel from companies that provide various specialized services. . Our staff is about 60 people, and about 15 people are dispatched from a catering company that we have a contract with, and are in charge of cooking, washing, cleaning the living area, etc. Our personnel are of various nationalities, with the majority being local to the countries where we operate, but Indians make up the majority of our rigs operating in the Middle East. The work I am in charge of is mainly classified into the following three departments. Drilling Division In order to operate the excavation equipment and proceed with the excavation work, we work in two shifts from 0:00 to 12:00 and from 12:00 to 24:00 in groups of about 8 people. Barge Division We are in charge of moving rigs, holding fixed points, receiving equipment, fuel, water, etc. from supply boats, and getting in and out of personnel by helicopter. I work 2 shifts. On jack-up rigs, some staffing is different and some jobs do not involve shift work. Maintenance Department It consists of occupations such as machinery, electricity, engines, welding, etc., and generally works from 6:00 to 18:00, but assistants in charge of engine duty work in two shifts.

What is the working method of the rig factor?The well is said to be a living thing, and once excavation work is started, the longer the work is interrupted, the worse the conditions inside the well become, and the higher the risk of collapse of the well wall. This means drilling equipment runs continuously and rig crews work shifts, whether on land or at sea. In the case of offshore drilling rigs, there is a 4-way 2-shift system, where 2 out of 4 groups are always on board, each group covers 12 hours of work, and the remaining 2 groups rest in their home country. The working method has become an industry standard. Including our company, a cycle of four consecutive weeks of work and four consecutive weeks of vacation is common, but there are examples in some industries of adopting a shorter cycle. When the 4-week shift ends, after handing over the duties to the replacement personnel in the same position who came on board by helicopter (or boat), they disembark the rig by helicopter on the way back. On land, I stop by the office and have a meeting, and if my return flight is late at night, I do sightseeing and shopping. The living quarters within the rig also include a gym and theater room for the comfort of the rig crew. In addition, in the cafeteria, we offer multiple menus in a buffet style so that we can respond to the taboos of Islam and Hinduism.
