- Every piece of equipment onboard the offshore oil rig, is identified with a color code on them. This code tells us that it has been tested and is safe to use from the most recent equipment testing process. Equipment with recent color codes is safe to use. Items like alcohol, matches and lighters should not be taken aboard offshore oil rigs. Other forbidden items include flammable items, illegal drugs and weapons.
- All luggage is checked before coming aboard an offshore oil rig to ensure the safety of all people onboard. Batteries should be removed from electrical equipment; cellphones should be turned off and can be taken from you before you come aboard the helicopter.

The workday
Employees who work onshore in oil productions have a basic workday of 8 hours, for 5 days.
This is differs to oil rigs offshore as they tend to work 7 day weeks and 12 hours a day then they may have 7 days off. Drilling operations will work continuously for 24 hours and or until oil has been discovered and fully pumped then drained. Working offshore the workers will be transported by boat or helicopter to and from the oil rig platform.
