[QUOTE="10 point, post: 2005502, member: 52520"] According to the site on engineering on rigs a person can get a BA/BS degree and the Masters certification in five years. The pay rate is probably in line with your experience (if you train on the job) and the pay is 190 Gs + and rising. We have a four yr progression now for ft drivers so the pay scale apples to apples is close until your experience (7 yrs average) maxes out on the platforms. That being said, even if the retirement rate for this generation's engineers is accelerating I doubt if they're hiring 50-100 thousand engineers in the next few years. Plus, the job fairs put on by the companies that run/own the rigs are turning away people because the applicants are maxed out. I had relatives that worked (skilled) on the rigs in the gulf. They made killer money. Being away from your family for 10-14 days at a time is not a job that I would choose unless I didn't want to be home. [/QUOTE]
