Sweet, I am with Gulf Offshore too and finish my college phase on Friday, so never know could end up on a ship with you. How soon did they contact you after finishing college?

Remember they'll probably be no good once you start being sick, so if the feeling is there, get some from the Mate. Also if you are sick, stay hydrated, small amounts at a time, same with any food. I always found eat before sleep because I was never sick when lying down. And by the time I was up again it was digested.

Jam sandwiches won't stop you from being sick, but at least they will still taste nice on the way back up again.

Kwells seem to work for me.

Jam sandwiches. Bit strange hah! Expecting the sea sickness. Any good type/brand of pill?

Try and get the non-drowsy ones and its always worth letting the chief mate know what you are taking if you are regularly popping them

Never been with Gulf, but presently working offshore, or at least for an offshore company.

Take plenty of seasick pills with you and if they don't work eat jam sandwiches.

You will probably be spending a lot of time on deck, listen to what people tell you about safety and follow it.

I'm not with Gulf personally, but my tutor at South Tyneside was, and they sound like a good bunch. I'm offshore as well, so hopefully I'll be heading off soon like.

Hi. I've just heard from my sponsoring company Gulf Offshore that I'll be going to sea for the first time on Monday for 2 months. I just wondered what other peoples experiences were offshore for the first time and if you've got any experience with gulf offshore. Thanks
