    Nag work din ako sa africa. It's Gabon to be exact under Total-Elf contract.Location was in the middle of the jungle. Araw-araw kasulubong namin puntang location ibat-ibang wild animals na before nakikita ko lang sa Discovery at National geographic channel hehehe. Hirap lang travel kasi lost 6 days punta at pauwi at rotation is 28/28 lang. Hate the waiting time din sa Paris airport kasi almost 15 hours dahil flight to asia starts close to midnight lagi.

    As qman said, it's french company. Malaki field nila sa Gabon.
    Yeah, it was exciting and dangerous at the same time. Katakot yong elephant attack. Muntikan na kami ng driver ko. Buti lang he switch off our vehicle's headlight. Minsan naligaw sa base camp namin, yon tumba ang mga light post at damaged ibang accomodation namin ginawang pang kamot sa katawan nila... he he he

    I've been in Africa for 13 years na, so far the best place for me is now my workplace Eq.Guinea. Tahimik medyo takot lng kaming makagat ng lamok dahil may malaria.
    Worst Place: Algeria, travel kami on bullet proof yellow school bus then may military escort sa harap at likuran.

    mga tsong paki-identify naman company names nyo.

    sa transocean po ako, merger ng dating sedco-forex and transocean inc. chief mechanic, semisubmersible, presently assigned sa indonesia.

    sagot ko sa question: yes, based sa home country ang sweldo. tagal na ko nagrereklamo tunkol dito, pati vice president ng company nakasagutan ko na. sa awa ng diyos e mukhang ngayong april e magkakaron yata ng resulta yung pakikipagaway ko sa lahat ng manager na pwedeng awayin ehehehehehe! pero hindi pa din parehas sweldo, since ang nilalaban ko lang naman e "same standard of living" at hindi "same salary". in other words gusto ko mabili sa pilipinas yung kayang bilihin ng relyebo kong kano sa america.

    yung mga companies na alam ko na patas ang bigay ay diamond offshore saka atwoods drilling. does not matter saang lupalop ka ng mundo nangaling basta kaya mo ang trabaho. kaya lang halos wala nagreresign dun kaya hirap din makapasok.

    yung pinsan ko kakatanggap lang nya this month, schlumberger wireline. nag-hiring ang schlumberger sa pinas last january, lumabas sa inquirer ang advertisement. deploy sya this march 15 going to qatar, $2k+ daw ang bigay (di pa nya alam exact figures wala pa yung contract nung umalis ako last week e.) 27 lahat sila na nakuha. dating senior engineer ng wartzila philippines pinsan ko kaya sisiw na yung makina ng wireline pag dating nya dun.

    yung kapitbahay naman nila ermats ko paalis din sa march 20, doctor yun pero nag-apply na rig medic sa offshore (email sa kanya yung isang doctor friend nya na rig medic din sa qatar). sa qatar din punta nya. dami tanong sa akin kung delikado daw trabaho, lalo na takot sumakay helicopter ehehehe! di pa mandin marunong lumangoy ehehe!
