Maritime experience and other unspoken jobs:
I have been through multiple shipyard jobs.
I have been through several US Coast Guard inspections.
I have been through several MMS inspections.
I know most of the laws for ABS and USCG. I know what they are looking for. My vessel has never received an 835 (INK) while I was onboard from either MMS or USCG.
I do know how to weld and have done a lot of it.
I do know how to operate a crane and have did a lot before certification was required.
I have ran the rig. In the past I have relieved the driller while tripping pipe or drilling so that he could go eat. That was part of my job.
I have worked in the derrick a lot.
When I worked on the barge rigs I was responsible for sinking the barge on location.
In the past I took care of the IADC report for the toolpusher every morning before he got up. I would also do the time sheets and a lot of different paperwork.
I have pretty much helped with different jobs through out the entire rig. I know at least something about all of it. We all must work together to make things work right.
I have experience working abroad. I have spent the last 8 years in Brazil. I have also worked in Mexico. There is nowhere that I will not go.
