Posted By D H You do not make your position very clear - but If you are looking to get yourself offshore working as a "sole" contractor, on top of what you have listed, you will also need to have MIST training - and if for BP - I believe you still need "minimum standards" training. May be easier getting in with a company who already have the contracts? Dave
