Work...

Time flies, it has been 8 mths since I have started working, I have been asking myself what I have accomplished so far, am I really doing what i want to do. This 8 mths is not long but it is neither short either.

I have a 2.5 mths of training at the start of work and have been doing the B296 project concurrently. It is a semi-submersible which means that it is a floating oil rig that is able to propel itself in the sea and these 8 mths I have really seen it growing from a small rig to the current mega structure size. The sense of accomplishment is indescribable cos you really see something been constructed out of nothing.

Right now, I have completed about 95 percent of the ventilation system on board the rig and I am way in front of schedule. On the coming Monday, I will been given my 2nd project which is to go and undertake the commissioning of the B288 ventilation system, it means that I will have to run the systems on board which had been constructed, this project is going to be delivered real soon, thus life is going to be tough for me in the coming months but I guess this is a another learning opportunity for me, to give me a better insight of the mechanisms.

I have completed another small dream of mine which is to become an engineer, but what lies ahead of me is still quite grey as I have only given myself 2-5 yrs in this industry and after which I will move on in life. Thus I will have to know what I really want after that, guess I will really have a lot of white hair soon...
