Ya basta!

Creo que , bueno estoy segura que me gustaria tener un trabajo normal, de oficina, pero en el mismo tiempo agradable, entretenido, con algun trabajo de campo, pero no 80% como tengo ahora!Ah, irme a la oficina bien vestida, en lugar de Full PPE (Botas, casco y salopeta naranja).
Ayer estaba trabajando y el olor toxico del barro me ahogaba! es un trabajo sucio, y no en sentido figurado./

Estoy harta! ya! me dicen todo el rato que estoy en la lista para irme pa'casa, que en 2 dias me voy, despues tengo muchas ilusiones, y claro las cosas cambian, todo va mal, fallos de tuberías que hacen que todas mis ilusiones están tiradas en la basura..

Estoy cansada, no es normal, pronto tendre 18 dias desde que estoy aqui, pero seguramente me mantendrán aqui 3 semanas, se me sube la tensión pensando en esto.
Está uno aislado, en un mundo a la qual tiene que acostumbrarse a compartir su espacio privado con los otros, espacio privado solo tienes en tu habitacion, eso si eres afortunado como yo y no compartes la misma habitacion en el mismo tiempo.
Mi compañero me dijo hoy que se me nota en la cara el cansancio, pero que se entienda: es un cansancio psihico, no fisico. Probablemente es mucho peor que aguantar...
Me quejo aqui, es mi blog, tengo "mi espacio privado"...
Hoy todos estabán con las cabezas bajas, frustrados, cansados...Estamos aqui todos en la misma "olla"y quieremos libertad pronto.

Nadie entenderia toda esta situacion si no ha pasado por ella, asi que la pena no me vale.

Delayed

Stage 1: When I get a phone call saying that the plans have changed and I need to wait a bit more until I go to work. Sometimes, most of the times, it´s great! I get the chance to stay more at home, chill out(or study for my Master, like´s the case this time).
Today I don´t know really, for the moment I´m glad I´m not going to travel to UK (long and tiring travel), as I wake up with a terrible headache. I can stay in bed and drink a lot of green tea with lemon. :) But, I am conscious that if I will leave later, I´ll be back later...And I´ve kinda wanted to be back until the 15th of May, when it´s a major holiday in Madrid (St. Isidro).
Let´s see what happens these days..heheheh.

Types of oil drilling rigs

Getting down to the basics, there are several types of offshore oil rigs designed to work in a variety of locations, on certain kinds of wells, and differing environments: Jackups are moveable drilling structures with bottom supports. Jackups have open-truss or columnar legs in support of their main deck or hull area. Are one of my favorites, together with fixed platforms.



I used to work on this jack up for many months, I had a really awesome team, good food, good weather, good geologist to work with, was ok.

Platforms cannot be moved like Jackups. They are immobile. Platforms are typically made from steel or cement and are used to drill new development wells.


On this big platform I worked all year 2009 until my last day of work. It was massive, at first I was getting lost all the time, there were 170 stairs to climb from my room to the working unit...
was a good rig, good memories, nice people to work with, the food was not the best, but you could survive with it.

Semisubmersibles drilling units, or Floaters, stay afloat offshore on giant pontoons or hollow columns. When filled with water, the pontoons or columns will partially submerge the unit to a desired depth. Floaters are reliable in rough seas and most frequently used for drilling new wells. I hate them!!! THey are moving all the time, I am sea-sick and I throw up all the time at first, the medic has to give me pills especially for this reason, I remember not but the people was worth it. Some of them were misserable, the food was horrible, I got indigestion twice, ah that Artic 2...that no longer drills! Finally..!



THis semi was not bad, actually was barely moving, I liked it as I was working with terrible great persons. I felt very good there, though there were some guys from Malta who were stocking me all the time...it was frustrating!

Well, there are also the drilling ships. I have never been on one, but I have seen them.
I guess they are moving too...I couldn't like this.
