Does anyone work for Apache North Sea? ... or, indeed have done in the past.

If so, I'd be grateful if you could PM me.

I'd just like to get an impression of what they're like as an organisation to work for.

Cheers,

Eric smile

don't go there as a contractor as they're trying to put them on 3 & 3 and rumours ahve it they're trying it on with the apachie boys aswell.

From people who work there that I know there an avarage company to work, not the worst but no where near the best.

Never worked for them personally, but have heard mixed responses, but over riding comment seems to be 'good ol' boys' 70's style O & G operator, with all that entails....bandit

Did some consulting work through an intermediary for them a few years back, if there's anything specific you're interested in (I'm a QS/Contracts/Estimating guy) that I may be able to help with, PM me.

I did three and a half years (as a staffie) in the drilling department (onshore and offshore).

Give me a call if you want a chat, Eric.

Cheers
