  • Good Day Mate...nice vid...my question is what's the duties of a 3rd mate onboard BP's LNG fleet...cause when I was with other LNG company the last LNG vessel I was on there were three 2nd officers and a 3rd officer is considered a Jr. Officer / Training second Officer (fresh officer from Maritime School or a officer newly working on Lng with out prior experience on LNG vessels) is this the same for BP? Thanks!

  • One Captain, One Chief Officer, One Second Mate and Two Third Mates, Thats how it was when i was there, its the same for all their vessels, oil and gas

  • Cool...thanks for the info...

  • @therealfatjimi Cool..I see.........Thanks for the info~

  • You left out the best part, navigating!

    I'd love to work on a gas tanker when I graduate. I'll make sure to take the elective course for it.

  • Nice ship :)

  • that chinese dude wins everytime at ping pong i guess? Just kidding, what a damn big ship is that! so much unused space I.E. the pingpong room!:O

  • Very Nice Video ... I'am indonesian, sorry for a bad english ... I got an offer to work on this kind of tanker ... I graduated from Chemical Engineering ... Maybe I will be placed on laboratory ... What's the different between oil, LNG, and chemical tanker? ... Which tanker have the best accommodation/facilities?

  • Gas boats have the best facilities in my experience

  • @therealfatjimi pls tell me are these facilities available at an oil tanker and are these facilities provided by this company only or by other also

  • @therealfatjimi i will be going to the Great Lakes Maritime Academy in fall 2011, and when i am done i will have a 3rd engineers license, could i as an american get on a LNG? i hear they pay the best

  • @therealfatjimi You have some amazing facilities on board - how many members of staff would there be in total including chefs, mechanics, engineers etc.

  • Video Games!? Bah Contraband!! lol

    You guys have an awesome job, even if it's really hard work. Awesome ship too! I see a Swans poster. Is this an Australian ship or one of the ports of call is Sydney or Melbourne?

  • That's why these guys make the "big money".

  • grandi.........

    

  • Why does everything have to be a music video? Thumbs down.

  • GET BACK TO WORK CADET!

  • please respond ASAP Hi I was wondering is work on a tanker fun cos I was thinking about joining the Merchant Navy when I'm older.

  • @weeBRUdrinker it is fun for me, but it depends on you, most people will probably like cruise ships, but these ships look dull but they have much better facilities for staff than a cruise ship does. and your not constantly at sea, you see countries all the time. i think most people underestimate life at sea. i think you should consider it a great career .

  • how fast is she?

  • A ship full of guys.. no thanks. Bunch of gayness going on I'd bet.

  • There are females on the ship genius

  • I ve been on a sister ship. Verry nice pice of vessel.

  • How do people get internet on board when your a the middle of nowhere?

  • I must say, as someone in the Royal Navy, the accommodation looks great on this ship. I will leave the RN soon and hopefully begin a career in the merchant... once I've passed the EOOW oral!

    Good video mate, thanks!

  • Great video my friend. I wish that i am on ship like that for 4 months

  • Considering My ship is 605 feet and built in 1929, this ship is a Palace in comparasin. About the only thing that stays true to life... are guys playing Xbox in the rec room instead of sleeping LOL. Nice vid, and good sailing!

  • WTH??? Is that on board a ship? I would consider myself lucky if I ever found an apartment with that much room...

  • they have all this because on this type of ship they stay on board all the time during 4-5-6 months,they can't go out in the port,there is no time for that.

    *brizbags you are idiot,the big one

  • @maroje1212 can take their wives onboard too? Is that right?

  • Wow, the cabins looked bigger than what I got on a cruise ship...

  • And you deck officers get paid how much to do this?

  • @lewisscott22 starting salary for a 3rd Mate is around 54,000 dollars

  • in the U.S. you can get 70-100K depending on your rank and job title and the company you work for

  • I assume it's a 100K for a captain? Still not very much for that kind of responsibility... :D

  • nope that's eng., captain can make up to 250K depending on if they work intercontinental (Great lakes) or oceanic, what they hall, the company they work for, union ect.

  • thats because its a gas tanker...life is not like that on oil tankers...

  • What, no engine room!!

  • of course theres an engine room, how would the ship move???

  • Cool shit... I'm waiting for my interview on the scholarship on Nautical Studies.. Now that i have seen this video, i really hope to get accepted man... Thanks for posting this video mate..... Appreciate it...

  • hi can you tell me how i can get a carrear at sea always wanted to work on those big ships im a 25 year old male living in northern ireland

  • You need to get a nautical college degree.

  • Wow.....this ship is fantastic!!!!

  • Wow, that is definitely way more luxurious then the tanker I sail on. I have my United States 3rd Assistant Engineer license. I'd love to get on one of these LNG carriers.

  • my lad is on a sister ship of this as a 4 eng . he as sailed on this ship about 4 years ago i went on one of this class in jan this year when he came to the uk it was one hell of a ship all the best

  • I am a ship agent and have been in more than 200 vessels during my career and for sure vessels are 90%shitty look not like one on this video

    Also is showed only the officers deck

    You must see the CREW deck............you may get scary

  • whats that ship sim controller in the libary?

  • don't know mate, i'm an Engineer. it was basic enough. just charts on a screen, not the 3d stuff you get in college but if you really want to know i'll find out for you.

  • i meant the controller next to the tv?

  • Awsome video! I will be going to the Mass. maritime academy this spring to be a deck officer. I want to go abroad and would like to go on a tanker like this one. I would want to go to a British company. If you could send me some information on how to go about that and what company you work for. Thanks bro! Nice vid-Josh

  • Holy shit man, i just transferred there, starting this spring too. going for deck too

  • Hi, I´m from Venezuela and I´m Chef and a Writer, I want a job like a Chef (I don´t care the rank) in a Ship like this to meet the oceans and the people. Wath you recomed? Beside practice my English

  • Mostly European

  • But...you have to clean it yourself:)

  • dump the shitty music...

  • copywrite police took off my orignal stuff, i couldn't be arsed finding new shite

  • There is a pool on board. The crew usually numbers around 30. The crew are allowed to smoke in there rooms on some LNG and Oil tankers in addition to the bars.

  • It looked like there was a swimming pool (without water in it) in one shot but he didn't open the door that went out to the area where it was. Is there a swimming pool on board as well as all those other recreations?

  • yea there is a full pool shot later on in the vid around 9 mins 7 seconds. thers water in it there.

  • the bathroom looks like a hospital bathroom

  • I wonder where do seamen smoke onboard of a LNG or Oil Tanker.

    Xtof4444, French Commercial Marine Cadet

  • nice cabin compared 2 MISC LNG ship

  • my father work at MS NACELLA in the year 1976-1978

  • Hi my friends,

    I was wondering what are the steps that I would have to accomplish to become a certified captin of a cruise ship or tanker ship?

    Thank you,

    Marcus

  • As long as you don't get too sea sick, can take a drink and generally point the think in the right direction, I think that's all you need

    Worked for the captain of the Exxon Valdez.

  • OK..

    Were you onboard when the big oil spill occured in March 24, 1989?

  • No I was not, were you ?

  • Do all crewman have a cabin to there self?

  • just officers, crewmen share a room with up to 3 other people.

  • that must get old quick

  • yes every one on board officers and crew in the company I work for has their own cabin, en suite. even the cadets.

  • thank you.

  • very light your life ¿no creen creen mucha maravilla en el video?

  • niceeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!111

  • sailors are prophets of sea... great life!

    lavishing... is a word i would attach to your ship comparing to my old msc vessel..

  • fuckin way more facilities than the oil tankers.vid could've been a little shorter too but nicely done.

  • i get that a lot

  • nice cabins, and gym, i wonder if there are on other ships to suchs rooms to spend freetime? are there any standarts for merchant ships, like to have a gym? im about to start my second year, im in engineering department

    who do you work as on a ship?

  • PLEASE....thanks a lot

  • you should put more videos with ships....inside rooms...and if you have some photos with this ship or nother ships ...you shoul send me on my mail....

  • hell yea, you know i there in need of any IR / AB's? haha

  • It looks OK, BUT:

    NO GIRLS, NO CARS, NO LAND -> fucking booooring and alone.

    It's smth like a trucker, but there you have car, land, and girls. :-)

    Girls, not only boys. :D

  • Why drive a car with 200 horsepower when you can command a ship with 20.000 horsepowers? Being on the open sea is fantastic , and time just flies by. You can always get girls when youre moored, but it all depends on the duration of the loading/discharge and your responsibilities onboard.
