Monkeybusiness offshore

Yet again something exciting happens in my adventurous life. Today I got deported from an oilrig because I did a climbingstunt in front off the platform chief. It is safe to say that the audience did not like the performance. It was in fact the most serious breach on safetyrules he had seen since 1992. (the first version of the rig sank in 1992...)


So how does a chief on an oilrig act to say that he didn't like your performance?
- First off you are not allowed to move outside the living quarters anymore. (As if you've suddently become a threat to safety on board.)
- Then you have to pack all your equipment and get ready to leave on the first flight back to land. (Resulting in an urgent job being postponed until things settle.)
- Then you have to write an extensive report on what happened and participate in a safety-debriefing with everyone on board with the word "safety" in their job-title. (the big bosses on the platform also attend here.)
- At the same time "petroleumstilsynet" starts an investigation commition to investigate what happened and how it can be avoided in the future. (I'm preparing for the chat I'm going to have with them soon.)


Then he tells you have a pleasant day and wish you a nice flight back on shore.
