Well there are only two units in the whole Corps that do what I do, and we're in pretty high demand all over central Iraq. They deploy us for seven months. the first half of the first month, and the last half of the seventh are the times when we're RIP'ing with the other unit. After that we get 5 months back stateside, then head out here to do it all over again. The deployment schedule really sucks, but the job is rewarding. I'm on my second tour, and I'll have a third before I'm done. Guns, do you have any kind of Instant messenger name?

Hahaha, ANYONE that needs a gmail invite to use one of the best inboxes out there send me an email to guns951@gmail.com and I'll send you an invite...limited to the first 50 people who email (at my discresion of course).
No affiliation or anything, just love the system and have a bunch of invites that aren't being used. And an invitation is just about the only way to get registered with an account.

Neddrill 2 (Drillship), Bow Drills 1,2, 3 (Semis) Sedco H (1st Gen Semi) Zapata Ugland (Semi) Canmar Explorer 1 (Drillship in the Beaufort Sea) Timesaver 2 (Mini drillship on the Great Lakes) I was on the Bow Drill One the night the Ocean Ranger went down off the East Coast of Canada and testified at the Royal Comission into that disaster. (84 killed during the sinking, all hands plus three more trying to refloat the rig to get it out to deeper water.) I miss the ocean and really enjoyed the equipment. I never got a chance to work on something with the capabilities of your rig but I have been considering going back overseas and offshore and the future is deeper and more remote to find the needed hydrocarbons as we deplete the easy to find stuff.
Merry Christmas to you,
Lanny

Damn Lanny, I worked 13 years for Zapata(Lexington, Yorktown, Concord, and the Neptune - went to Norway to get that one - they can have the North Sea!!!) before coming over to Sonat;TSF; now we're just called Transocean. Our thrusters are in for repair after severe damage from Rita but they should be back next year with updates.
Merry Christmas to you, it's my year to work. My relief and I swap out every other year so we can plan events with family.
