    You would think so! The place isn't new, its 30 year old. They maybe just found a set of hospital plans lying around and thought "they'll do" when they were building it!

    It looks like them old time horror movies. Pretty neat though. You guys have pool tables and that is enough for me to love the place. Just add a bar fridge and I will send out my resume to you.

      I have uploaded some of the photos from my 1st trip to my new platform. These are just from the Accommodation areas, the weather was too rubbish to take any outside. As you can see, my office is a big improvement on my last place! :-D https://plus.google.com/101536499829290847861/posts/H459ein4u8P[^]

            I find the floor plan quite interesting. There is a Clean locker room and a Duty locker room. Which my brain of course read as Dirty locker room.

              I don't know what I expected - just looks a bit sterile - I guess inside/accommodation is a stark contrast to the 'work/outside areas' though. Nice to see they have a pretty good 'sick bay'. 'g'

                Entertainment room could use some improvement. Overall a lot nicer than the rigs I've been on, I usually get on the exploration/initial well rigs. A lot of Diamond and Transocean rigs mostly, and all floaters so pool table is out of the question :). They are really spoiling you with the sauna though!

                  When the owners require them to run for 30+ years to get a good ROI, they tend to keep them extremely clean. The only rigs I've been on that were really nasty were the ones that were scrapped then bought for pocket change and put back into service.

                    What do you suggest, what is missing? However, in addition to this area, there is also separate TV rooms for Smoking/Non Smoking, a separate Internet Cafe computer room, a fully equipped gymnasium. There was also a large cinema with staged flooring etc, but apparently that was never used so is in the process of be converted to an equipment room for the new control system and office for the system engineers. We are planning a refit in 2015.

                      You'd be surprised, the now torn down R&D facility I used to work at (built by a well known multi-national oil company) was exactly that, a set of hospital plans. Operating theatres = Chemistry labs Private rooms, examination rooms = Offices Storage = storage Wide corridors, lifts etc. etc. The old ones are utilitarian, simple and probably cheap to build. Job done, not eactly inspiring but it was 1970 (ish). Not sure the new, modern, stylish hospitals would work quite so well... M
