Offshore vs. Inland
"I own an inland diving company located in Alabama. Have been in business for around 5 years or so. I spent the first part of my career inland working for a mom & pop diving company. I was taught a few things but most of it was OJT. I thought I knew it all after a few years. And my shit was golden. Then hurricane Andrew blew in and took out most of the Murphy/ODECO field in the Ship Shoal area. Yes I am a hurricane baby. Anyway over the next 10 years I found out what inland vs offshore was. I learned more in 1 year in the oilfield than I did in 5 inland. Here are just a few Offshore vs Inland things: Offshore= 6x6 jet pump, Inland= 3" trash pump, Offshore= 20,000 psi waterblaster, Inland= 2000psi carwasher, Offshore= He02, Inland= Nitrox, well i hope you get my point. I know there are many good inland divers but you can not get real heavy duty construction experience anywhere but offshore. There may be a few big jobs inland working with heavy loads and real equipment but not everyday. Offshore you work with this type of equipment daily and think nothing of it. I can just see trying to get 3' of cover on a P/L with a 3" trash pump. Hey dont laugh there are plenty of mom & pops out there that will give you just that. I wouldn't trade my experience offshore for anything, its what I use to blow my competition out of the water. Most of the divers that work for WDS are oilfield hands and seem to like working inland for a change. One last thing, I would like to say that this website seems to be the best out of all the others. Go figure, its been put together by an offshore diver."
