My dad used to work on oil rigs for 14 years, often being away for months at a time. This was an interesting insight into his work environment and a part of his life I'd never seen before. I'm glad I watched this.
Tell your dad I love him.
Was your dad allow to have a phone 📱!?
@@princesitadulce18 What for? there is not tesla towers there.
I think that's just what your mum used to tell you when your dad was really in prison.sorry pal
Same
Thank you Paul for taking me into your 360 experience.
Holy shit this is the first time I've experienced a 360 on RUclips
I expected this video be a preset recording of somebody else navigating the environment, so I was surprised suddenly realising I got to do it
Same, it's very cool
It's not 360 video..
@@airkuna huh? Top left corner you can control the camera
It’s amazing what human beings are capable of building. Incredible structures.
I'm amazed at how much damage humans can do to the earth.

@@ased4995 well when a Earth killer meteor hits us that will do more damage to earth than anything than what humans can dozz
@@ased4995 tbf we don’t really do much. The earth will be fine. We may not be though lol
That was the first time I've watched a 360 degree video on the phone, pretty fascinating. Almost like VR
It's not 360 video..

@Piano God NO IT DOESN'T!
Piano God technically Europe isn’t a continent. It’s just an extension of Asia
Piano God I’m just stating a simple fact that Europe isn’t a continent
@钟业恒 ye its the only little pool of oil we got so go take canadas oil they have shit tons
@@MrSir-ly9lz yes Europe is a peninsula
What an incredible video! I never even knew that I could participate in 360 technology on my phone! Amazing! I got up and started wandering around the room, so immersive! Thanks!
That was really neat, BBC. Thank you very much for doing this. What an extraordinary bunch of people that we have out there, working so that we can go for a drive or keep our homes warm. This technology is so awesome and it really isn’t very old relative to the age of humanity. We ought to be very thankful for these people. May God bless them and you as well, BBC.
Still Wakes The Deep brought me here and the accent does not dissapoint!
Amazing to see what daily life is like, working on a production platform in the middle of the North Sea, thank you for showing us!

Spent 26 years in the oil game. Now work on a solvent plant as the senior control room operator.. Reminds me of my time in the Army.
anyone else here trying to learn about rigs after playing "still wakes the deep" lmfaoo
No
lol yeah same here
yep xd
I played the game then jumped on a chopper 2 days later to go to one.
Omg! Seeing that in 360 on my phone was amazing! I was spinning in circles in my room looking at everything from all angles😆 a bit dizzy now 😂 But well worth it!
Amazing! This video deserves more views!
That 360° deal was cool!!
This is awesome! Thank you BBC for this amazing, 360 look into the lives of offshore men.
Been there done that in 80's amd 90's !!! Not just north sea but all over the world as Mudlogger and one of earliest MWD engineers for Teleco.. Unique and exciting time of my early years !
I never knew 360 video existed. Now I’m searching RUclips for more lol
they been out for like 7 years bro lmao
Dude same tho I was trippin when this video started. Lmao
It's not 360 video..
We've been drilling, milling, repairing the Wells for them. I had absolutely great time there! Thanks for that opportunity!
I would like to work on an oil rig but dont know where to apply ... I couldn't find anything online (for inexperienced people like me) only for skilled technicians etc.
Try to PM me I'll try to help you with that.
Valerijs Otovcics hi! I’d really like to find out more about oil rigs if you’ve got a spare minute or two ahah. I’m also applying to work at an oil rig.
@@gheudbbn9134 at the moment I am with atlasprofessionals.com
I know in UK they are recruiting "Green hands" (no offshore experience). They do have a lot of offices around the globe, check with them. To have more chance to get offshore job I would recommend to pay for the courses (1000-1500GBP). If you are over 40 years old with no offshore experience it will be VERY difficult to get a job. Have you got any more questions which I could help you with?
Problem working offshore is you are frequently away for birthdays, weddings ect
Im gonna be working at the rigs in West Africa Angola from next year, thank god they have a gym🙌🏾
I saw a meme with an oil rig in it, look up what it is and came here, now I'm learning about oil rigs at 12 am.
I moused around. 360 vision. Fascinating.
Me too. Cool. I love the ocean but that's a lot of water in the middle of nowhere lol.
Right On!!! This is awesome. You can stand and do a 360 and see the whole thing
Things like this are fascinating
seriously cool 360
Narendran Manogharan lol i dident realise until i touched and i was like WTH?!?
I didnt even realize this was a 360 even though I see the hand cursor! Thanks!
Where is the Neterland oil rigs
My uncle used to work on the oil rigs I like this video the way you can look around 👍🏻
This is probably the closest you come to living on a space station here on earth. Very cool!
The most important bit they never mentioned. They pay you VERY WELL.
Feel like I'm playing Still Wakes The Deep
Ahh Mr McLeary
That was soooo cool!
Dont know why i always loved oil rings...wish I could just go&visit one.
Amazing video! Haven’t seen
This on youtube yet! Thank
You for the work this took !
Thanks lad for uploading, enjoyable way to interact and see your place of work. It looks awsome.
The fact that this was a 360 video made it more interesting
thank you paul very much
That was immersive
This was the coolest
Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
My relative is on an oil rig near Ireland and works for Kirby Marine He has run out of juice on his phone! It seems he is not with a way to call anybody, said he would be there for six months.
I’m really imaged like I don’t have a single word to explain. I’m sure you guys are super strong and really brave to work middle of the sea. Honestly I don’t even know how swim actually I’m scared since I child. But I think I’m lucky to see you guys working so hard. It’s pleasure to see you guys. May god bless you all time.
Working my first rig next week, can’t wait

You definitely couldnt have a girlfriend with that type of job she's going to cheat every time you go to the rig lol
Nah he definitely could. Someone appreciates all that he does
Not every woman cheats :)
Good women won't cheat on a good man
Holy syit and my father is the one who controls them from the office trough computer lol so proud
Crazy that oil is still a resource
Incredible
Good video
He is cute
Wow, that was really interesting!
1:10 awesome graphics, but it looks like a beta as there are no enemies :( Only a few unfinished npcs but i can tell its going to be a must purchase once on Steam!
123OGNIAN oil rig loot needs a nerf
😂😂😂😂😂
Stay Safe
As a chemical engineer, I know that a job on an oil rig is the one with the highest remuneration I can expect. I don't want that job though.....
I must have missed the kitchen and chow hall haha. What kind of food is available during your 3 weeks stay?
@Hello Steve how are you doing?
i luv ur vid and if all my dream jobs are not going to work i will try to do this job!
Looks like a dream job for me too bad I'm too old (49) to learn something new I've always fancied it though.
Never too old my friend. Determination will stop no man
That was cool!
Couldn't stop laughing there Paul!! 12hr shift! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pretty cool though
Great video
My dad also worked on a oil rig platform , Maui A Taranaki of shore New Plymouth, New Zealand, he was a crane driver , he also operated the world biggest ship Crane , the Blue whale, the stories he told me still affect me to this day, one very important story he told us , and believe me this is the truth, there were Japanese squid boats with massive lights to attract the squid , a few time the boys were looking down and witnessed UFO activities on the bottom of the ocean floor , the men were all watching them scanning the ocean floor , there lights were clearly visible from the platform 1000 of meters about, it was completely oblivious to them all they were compling information about how much oil the rig had been
Taking from the oil reservoir, he also said when they take out the oil that also works as a natural suspension system they back full it with sea water, he said one day in the future when there will be a major shift in the earth's crust the whole plato will fall, it will cause a massive tidal wave , headed straight for my birth place, New Plymouth.
That time is coming soon , it's way overdue.
@@grantbailey6748 usually extensive drilling is linked to risks such as earthquakes, and near drilling sites on land where there may be leaks, sinkholes
I’ve never had the 360 experience before very cool
Cool, do you have divers on that platform I would imagine so
