People never understand what I do for a living, they can't picture it really, even my family. This hit the mark

Haul twice the cargo at twice the speed with half the people and half the pay of a big boat. Loved every minute of it.

So glad I got the hell out of the oilfield and switched over to the USCG, Aviation Branch, HC-130 and HU-25, It was much more fun flying over the oil patch and being home at night with a steady paycheck and not rocking around on the waves. In the oil patch It was steak and weenies from year to year, from boom to bust. No thank you.

Tug boats are like riding in a car compared to a crew boat like this

What's that song, and who's that singing? Whoever wrote the song seems to really know the industry. Sounds like he's been on a hitch or two. Sort of a 'sixteen tons' for the oilfield.

Chad Cooke Band - Oil Man. Its a great song! Definitely a hint of the pain and struggles associated with the oilfield or any job that requires you to be away from family.

I live in canada, I'm a US citizen. I was working for the Coast guard as a cook on vessels with seven people and 45 people. I'm moving back to America. Can I get a job as a cook on a supply boat down there? Up here I have Marine emergency duties which is firefighting and getting in and out of lifeboats, and also advanced first aid. I've got all the cooking certificates needed I think. I lived in Hawaii 17 years, and Ohio for 10 years.

Starting at 2:27 what are those vertical containers with the funnels on the bottom? I see similar in Railyard videos. Fuel?
@richarda39893 жыл бұрын
Those are dry bulk tanks used for storing and transferring products such as barite and cement.

Do crewboats normally stay offshore or run in and out regularly
@richarda39893 жыл бұрын
They run in and out for the most part. Some companies keep a crewboat handy to run crews about the field or the occasion were the rig isn't ready for the equipment you brought out and ask you to hang out.
@Josh-iv2bw11 ай бұрын
Why do they back up to the rig?
@denali94494 ай бұрын
To put the boat deck under the rig crane. Makes life easier and keeps the boats bow and house out of the cranes work area.

A man just offered me a job on a crewboat.pays $175 a day and their home everyday.what else do they do that's not in this video????
@richarda39893 жыл бұрын
Along with deck cargo and passengers you may also transfer fuel and water. Being home everyday is rare for this type of work and sounds nice.

@@richarda3989 I’m having deep doubts it’s the truth. About being home Every night. I do know for a fact, back 30 years ago when the majors didn’t look, find and drill so far out like they do now, I knew of many crew boats that was home nearly every 24 hours. But, these boats only hauled crews. Nothing else to speak of.
