Life in the GOM

[puddy310]

Hello everyone..

 

I just got hired on in the GOM and was wondering what I can expect life to be like. Are you based in different places or just one? Do you have a choice? Where do most people decide to live on their 1 or 2 weeks off?

I am just curious about this stuff and really looking forward t o starting work...but unsure of what to expect.

Any insight or info someone might be able to add would be great..

Thanks for your responses helix and rat. I checked out what other people had said and it sounded very cool...and very diverse. Lots of different experiences and opinions. Either way it sounds like it will be fun...
