I have only been offshore once, in the Goliat platform, for a mooring monitoring system installation — I was definitely not expecting the cruise ship like crew quarters! Single cabins with ensuite bathrooms, a cozy dining room with wall to wall windowing, even a pool table! Goliat is a very modern FPSO design, however. My colleagues' experiences in other floating rigs around the world, which are usually built from converted tanker hulls, are more like what you describe, especially below the equator. For contractors you might be lucky and get a double cabin to share, but cabins might have up to four bunks. Definitely don't forget to pack some flip flops or crocs for the showers! |
