Life on an oilrig is pretty neat, but it's work. It's amazing to come out there for the first time but after a few rotations the novelty wears off. Still, working on an oilrig is probably one of the better jobs you can get, especially for me (I work as a scaffolder). The job is exciting with complex constructions required for almost every single job and the general life is good too. Onboard we have cinemas, great food and all the videogames you could ask for.
Drills and alarms are fun too :)

@HomieG75 word! Most of the pictures was OLD school too. If you have any questions about working on a oilrig, just ask, been working in the Northsea for soon 5 years now. and this video doesn't show a thing about the life on a rig. most of the movie was just pictures of a rig.

The fires are burnoff, gases that have built up, common on all rigs.
And, yes, offshore work now has a lot of rules, after the last disaster they decided to move management offshore as well, think prima donnas.
However, safety awareness has gone up, a lot of things that the idiots would do, and not do, has ended.
As far as the rest of it? think of a bunch of uneducated rednecks stuck on a large platform in the middle of the ocean, other than that it is the same as inland drilling.

i graduated BOSIET course and im seaching for a roustabout job but nothing.i am willing to work anywhere and on any salary just to get a job
These videos are terrible. No one wants to see a slide show of pictures of people working on an oil rig put to music. I want to actually see people talking about what it's like to be on an oil rig, or a video about what goes on, not a bunch of caption-less picture.

Wowee! When I was looking for a video about life on an oil rig I didn't know I would find such a comprehensive source of information here! A slide show put to rock music. You sure know how to market your product! Even if you put twice as much effort into your website, I'm sure its a real dump.
