WHOA! That link made my IE blow up! Something wrong with the Quicktime plugin I think. Well ya, you should feel sorry for me. You fly to all the warm places in the winter, I've been reading your posts<g> I'm stuck here! Nothing is up with the N. Sea these days. Serious shit really. Layoffs, wage cuts, benefit cuts, offshore allowance cuts, you name it. Majors selling out to smaller operators who run a really tight ship to make a profit. All work right now is 90% workover or subsea stuff. Exploration or even infield drilling is pretty much DOA. I'm looking for work AWAY from the N. Sea. Decline, man, big time. It's here, everyone knew it was coming, now it is here. Donno how the Norway sector is doing but I suspect a lot better than the UK side..... Wayne
