    Facinating processes illustrating the importance of good teamwork especially as it applies to safety. There are a lot of ways of getting hurt or killed on the afterdeck of an AHTS vessel.
    Thank you for not adding any background audio. The narural sounds of the procedures are better than any techno-beat audio.

    Tough job undertaken by professional guys. I worked offshore for 25yrs, the last 4 of which was on a Norwegian heavy construction vessel, manned by Norwegian marine crew. Apart from Kumla on Thursday which was rank, it was an excellent vessel and they were all great guys who were good at their jobs. It was a pleasure to work with them. I do miss that Snuse though.

      i worked offshore for 25 years myself. i was a welder/millrite/ pipe fitter and i miss the job and the great money i made. after i got out of the army i used my GI Bill for welding school. 2y ears later i got lucky and was able to get a job working on offshore rigs in the gulf of mexico and the north sea. i was 24 when i got the job and making that kind of money at that age made me a very hardworking person. i wanted to retire by 50 and not 70. pulled it off too. now 25 years later i have way more free time to bang me wife 33 years

    Wow - that is one nice ship!! Big, comfortable bridge with a small lounge. The Sky Lounge for the crew is a really nice touch. I worked on AH ice-breakers in Canada's arctic for many years. Setting and pulling 15-tonne Bruce anchors. Great food, great pay, good crews (mostly). It was an exciting time.
