Do you want to work on offshore rigs / offshore platforms like these?

All oil drilling into the South Ellwood Offshore field takes place from Platform Holly, about two miles offshore in state waters. It is very cold here.

Platform Harvest, in the Point Arguello field in federal waters 7 miles from Point Conception, has produced more than 73,000,000 barrels of oil and 50,000,000,000 cubic feet  gas.
