In this article we discuss transferable experience that tradesman and prior military can leverage into fast-tracking themselves into jump-starting their new offshore job and career.

One of the obstacles even experienced workers may encounter when applying for offshore work is not having worked offshore before. Often, the interviewer will ask this question even before asking what position the applicant is applying for. Fortunately, this obstacle is one that is easily overcome.

Everyone working in the offshore jobs market faced this question at the start of their career, and managed to get past it. The solution they employed is one easily employed by anyone - namely, being able to concisely point towards prior experience as sufficient reason to be considered for employment. The key is to point towards experience that is easily transferable into an offshore work setting.

If you are an experienced tradesman, or have prior military experience, you already have a huge advantage, as these are the types of employees that most rigs are looking for.

However, even if your prior experience would qualify for you for a higher-level land based position, it is to your advantage to accept offshore work that may be a step down the totem pole, and then work your way higher by proving yourself and your abilities. The opportunities to do so will be almost unlimited.

Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Julian_Gaston/307482

There is a good reason for this. Regardless of your skill levels as an electrician, mechanic, painter or pipe fitter, or any other job category, it takes time to become familiar with the distinctive differences in operations in an offshore environment. Mistakes will be a part of the learning curve, and the lower you start on the totem pole, the less serious those mistakes will be. So it is better to learn the ropes of your particular trade and how it translates when working on an oil platform, rather than starting at the top, then falling down because you weren’t familiar with the specifics of how your trade operates in a sea-based environment.

With that caveat, there are multiple job categories in which to apply your prior land-based skill sets that will enable you to gain employment offshore in an accelerated fashion.

people with these skills are always in high demand. This is only a partial list; there are many more positions and job titles than this, and if you have experience in any of these areas, you will a huge advantage when applying for an offshore job: * Electricians * Welders * Scaffolders * Painters * Riggers and Crane Operators * Pipe Fitters * Mechanics * Fork lift drivers * Warehouseman and Storeroom Personnel * Divers * Medics and Nurses * Dispatchers and Radio Operators

PRIOR MILITARY If you have prior or current military service, you have a huge leg up. Your military training will be a huge plus in your hireability. Much of the excellent training you have received in the military is directly transferable into a new career working offshore.

This applies to numerous military job categories. Welders, electrical workers, technicians, mechanics, truck drivers, those with jet aircraft and helicopter maintenance, turbine and diesel engine experience, and numerous other jobs all have valuable experience to bring offshore.

Being former military gives you another advantage - your value in the eyes of your future employer. Personnel managers love prior military, as veterans know how to follow instructions and orders, and are trained in reacting to emergencies, a real plus in an offshore work environment.

So the advantage that tradesmen and former military enjoy when applying for offshore work is quite substantial. That hard earned experience can easily be leveraged into a high paying and adventurous lifestyle that will make you the envy of all your land based family and friends. What are you waiting for?

Powering the nation:

Smart grid careers James Hamilton

Implementing the smart grid requires many workers in various occupations.

And after the smart grid is set up, other workers will be needed to operate and maintain it.

Our nation’s energy needs have increased tremendously, especially in the last few decades. But the basic system for transmitting and distributing electricity hasn’t changed in more than a century. Modernizing the system through “smart grid” technology not only improves the way we store and get power, it provides jobs for workers who have the right training.

Population growth, an increase in home size and air conditioning, and the proliferation of computers and other electronics are among the factors driving growth in demand for electricity in recent decades. According to the US. Department of Energy, since 1982, growth in peak demand for electricity has out-paced growth in power transmission by almost 25 percent each year.

The current power grid—the network for distributing electricity from the power source to consumers—evolved during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The grid was designed to route power to consumers through high-voltage lines from a small number of power plants located far from population centers.

The amount of power generated at any time was based on overall demand and did not account for fluctuations in use. Because of the high cost and risks associated with making large-scale changes, however, little had been done to the existing power grid since it was first created.

Until now. Smart grid technology (the smart grid), in early stages of implementation nationwide, allows utilities and other electricity suppliers to constantly monitor electricity flow and adjust its distribution for maximum efficiency. In addition, the smart grid makes better use of energy generated from alternative sources, such as from solar panels, wind turbines, and other energy-generating systems, through improved storage and transmission.

This article describes career fields related to the smart grid.

FROM FUNCTIONAL TO EFFICIENT: UPDATING THE GRID

46

JUNE 15, 2018

The electricity we use comes from a variety of sources, including coal, nuclear power, and natural gas. Power plants generate electricity from these sources and transmit it to homes, businesses, and other structures, such as streetlights. In the grid system, electricity

moves from power plants through high-voltage lines to distribution stations and on to consumers. Smart grid technology improves upon the current grid. Modernizing the current power grid should create a more efficient, reliable, and flexible system for supplying electricity.

OCCUPATIONS IN SMART GRID WORK According to the US. Department of Energy, companies producing technology and offering services related to the smart grid include communications firms and new and established technology firms.

Implementing the smart grid requires many workers in various occupations. And after the smart grid is set up, other workers will be needed to operate and maintain it. Work related to the smart grid is expected to result in about 280,000 new positions, according to energy consulting firm DNV KEMA. These jobs span several occupational groups and include engineers, technicians, and construction workers.

In addition to employment with utilities, many workers will be hired by suppliers and contractors.

COMPUTER AND MATHEMATICAL OCCUPATIONS One of the defining characteristics of the smart grid is increased computer control and automation. As a result, computer systems analysts, network and computer systems administrators, operations research analysts, and software developers are needed to create, operate, and maintain the computer systems that the smart grid uses.

Workers in these occupations spend most of their time indoors working with computers. They are usually employed by utilities, technology firms, or government agencies and may work in offices or in a control center.

Network administrators may be required to travel to different locations to troubleshoot and fix problems.

Computer systems analysts have a variety of roles. They may specialize in helping select the appropriate system hardware or in developing and fine-tuning systems. They could work with computer programmers to debug, eliminate errors from, or do in-depth testing of the systems. Because the smart grid relies more VOL. 23 control ISSUE 1145 on computer than the current grid, com

puter systems analysts will be needed to help build these systems and man-age them once they are operating.

Network and computer systems administrators install and maintain an organization’s computer systems. Many components of the smart grid depend on reliable computer net-works to operate, so these workers are needed to ensure that computer systems function properly and that problems are fixed rapidly.

Operations research analysts formulate and apply analytical methods from mathematics, science, and engineering to develop and interpret information. They reduce the complexity of resource management to help utilities make better decisions and to improve efficiency. Using sophisticated software, these workers solve problems and are often involved in planning and forecasting. For example, they may predict future electricity needs so that power generation and transmission capacity is developed before it is needed.

Software developers design, test, and evaluate the applications and systems that make computers work. The computer systems that run the smart grid require specialized software.

Software developers are needed to create this software and to modify it to suit each electric utility’s individual needs.

ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING OCCUPATIONS Engineers apply science and mathematics to develop economical solutions to technical problems. Many engineers specify requirements and then design, test, and integrate components to produce designs for new products. After the design phase, engineers evaluate a design’s effectiveness, cost, reliability, and safety. Electrical engineers, electronics engineers, and electrical and electronics engineering technicians are needed in smart grid work.

Most engineers and engineering technicians work indoors, usually in an office or laboratory. For smart grid work, they use computers extensively to produce and analyze designs and for simulating and testing systems. Engineering technicians assist engineers with designing, developing, and testing quality-control products and processes. Engineers and technicians are typically employed by electric utilities, government agencies, or construction firms.

Electrical engineers design, test, and supervise manufacturing and construction of electrical equipment, including power generation, communications systems, control, and transmission devices. In smart grid work, electrical engineers typically focus on power generation and supply.

Electronics engineers work on applications for a range of smart grid technologies, including control systems that monitor how much electricity is being used at certain locations and systems that monitor electricity produced at generating stations, solar panels, or wind turbines. They also design and develop control systems for power plants.

Electrical and electronics engineering technicians help design, develop, test, and make electrical and electronic equipment. Technicians may test and evaluate products, using measuring and diagnostic devices to adjust and to repair equipment. Many engineering technicians assist engineers in researching and developing electric and electronic equipment for smart grids.

VOL. 23 ISSUE 1145

INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE, AND REPAIR OCCUPATIONS Telecommunications workers install, maintain, and upgrade the communications equipment that controls a smart grid. They are employed by power plants and utilities, and job tasks vary based on where they work. For example, line installers and repairers employed by utilities maintain low-voltage distribution lines and equipment such as trans-formers, voltage regulators, and switches.

Line workers travel with a crew to maintain smart grid transmission lines and towers throughout a region. Some occupations are dangerous because workers must be close to high-voltage electricity or high above the ground to do certain job tasks.

Electrical and electronics repairers fix equipment used in generating and delivering electricity. Electrical equipment generally refers to what is used to generate or supply electricity, including transformers and switches; electronic equipment is used to control devices, such as those that monitor and adjust the flow of electricity based on demand in a given area. Repairers troubleshoot problems and fix damaged or broken equipment.

Electrical power-line installers and repairers build and maintain the smart grid. They routinely work with high-voltage electricity, which requires extreme caution. They inspect and test power lines and other equipment and install power lines between poles, towers, and buildings.

Telecommunications equipment installers and repairers have a range of duties that varies by the type of work they do and where they work. Most work outdoors to install and repair smart grid equipment that transmits data to utility control centers and computers that monitor electricity supply and demand.

PRODUCTION OCCUPATIONS Operating the smart grid requires new equipment for generating plants and substations to handle increased capacity. Other plants and substations must be upgraded with smart grid technologies. Equipment assemblers, power distributors and dispatchers, and power plant operators are needed to prepare and control these smart grid facilities.

These workers spend time indoors in factories, offices, operations centers, or power plants.

Electrical and electronic equipment assemblers construct the equipment used in the smart grid. They assemble components of smart meters and other equipment used in the real-time monitoring of electricity demand. Some of their job tasks are repetitive.

Power distributors and dispatchers control the flow of electricity through transmission lines to industrial plants and substations, which in turn supply residents and businesses. They operate electrical current converters, voltage transformers, and circuit breakers. They also monitor other distribution equipment and record readings at a map board, a diagram of the smart grid that shows the status of transmission circuits and connections with substations and industrial plants.

Power plant operators in power-generating plants control and monitor equipment, such as boilers, turbines, generators, and auxiliary equipment. They regulate the output from generators and monitor instruments to adjust electricity flow

from the plant.

When demand changes, power plant operators communicate with dispatchers at distribution centers to match production with system loads and alter electricity output, as needed.

OTHER OCCUPATIONS Among the other occupations in smart grid work are electricians, meter readers, and urban and regional planners.

Electricians install smart meters and other equipment at homes and businesses. Meter readers’ occupation will undergo transformation with smart grid implementation, and their jobs are likely to change. Urban and regional planners are important in the analysis and arrangement of the power grid.

Electricians install and maintain electrical systems for homes and businesses, working with electrical wiring and control equipment.

Electricians who work with smart grid technologies install smart meters and must be familiar with smart appliances, lighting, and other technologies associated with the smart grid.

Electricians usually work indoors, often in cramped spaces, and may spend a lot of time kneeling, lifting, or standing. Most electricians work for electrical contractors and other wiring installation contractors, but some are self-employed.

Meter readers will be heavily affected by the implementation of the smart grid. Meters for the current grid are attached to houses and other buildings, where they must be periodically read and recorded by a meter reader. But the smart grid relies on advanced metering infrastructure—automation that does not require meter reading as it currently exists. As a result, meter readers need to be retrained for another occupation.

Meter readers work mostly outdoors, driving or walking around neighborhoods. They are employed primarily by utilities.

Urban and regional planners develop long- and short-term plans for land use and community growth. They recommend to local officials infrastructure and zoning locations, which requires forecasting population needs. In smart grid work, they determine a community’s electricity requirements based on its industries, population, and employment and economic trends. This information helps local and regional utilities in developing the smart grid.

Most urban and regional planners work in offices, usually for state or local governments.

GENERAL

H O U S T O N

Q: I just moved to Houston, and it seems like everyone tells me distances in minutes instead of miles. It’s driving me crazy! I can fi gure out how long it will take if they will just let me know how far it is!! Thank you in advance.

-Humble, Texas Reader A: Welcome to Houston where everything is about 45 minutes away. The reason they are telling you the distance in minutes rather than miles is simple: All miles are not created equal when it comes to drive time. As of October 2017, the average Houston commute was 50.56 minutes. If I am driving east to Humble from FM 1960 and Torrey Chase, it will take me 28 minutes if I leave right now. However, if I wait until 5 pm to make the same trip, it would take an hour and half, but it’s still the same distance. We tell you the distance in minutes because it is an accurate way of fi guring out your drive time. You’re welcome.

Q: I was fi red from my job, and I am totally embarrassed by that.

I know that I was doing a great job, and my last job review was very good. My manager just had something personal against me, and the director let him make the decision. I won’t criticize the company in an interview, but I honestly don’t know what to say when interviewers ask why I left the company. What do you think I should say?

GENERAL

-Houston, Texas Reader A: Don’t make it seem mysterious because that can send up red fl ags. In your place, I would just be honest. Work on an answer that saves you embarrassment but is truthful. How about: I have never lost a job before, and I have examined my performance honestly. I know that I did a good job, and I know I can do a good job for your company.

Q: I love my work friends, but I am kind of an introvert. I love being at home on weekends and just doing things with my husband and family. It seems like someone is always having a party or dinner or something, and they always ask me to join them. I don’t want to be rude, but I need some down time. What can I say that doesn’t hurt feelings?

NO OBLIGATION HERE

STEP BY STEP

Dear Dave,

Dear Dave,

My father died recently. He walked out of my life 25 years ago when I was a teenager, and he never wanted anything to do with me after that. His brothers, who have already paid for some of his final expenses, asked if I wanted to pay to have his body cremated. They didn’t ask for money, they just offered it as a chance to be part of things. I’m in good shape financially, and I could easily afford the cost. Morally, I wonder if I have a responsibility to help with things. Do you feel I’m obligated in any way?

When is the right time to buy a house when someone is following your Baby Steps plan?

Julie

Samuel

Dear Samuel, That’s a good question. Let’s start by going over the first few Baby Steps.

Dear Julie, I’m sorry for your loss. I’m sorry, too, about what happened with your father.

I can’t imagine the mixed emotions you must have in your heart.

When someone asks me a question like this, I try to put myself in their shoes. Under the circumstances, I don’t think you have any obligation whatsoever — morally or legally — to help pay for anything. If you want to help, and you can afford to do so, then follow your heart. At the same time, I don’t think you should lose one wink of sleep over this if you decide not to contribute.

Twenty-five years is long, long time. I don’t know your dad, and I have no clue about his situation or state of mind back then and in the time since. I can’t imagine doing that to a child of any age, though.

Do what you feel in your heart is best. But in my opinion, there’s no obligation here. God bless you, Julie.

Baby Step 1 is saving $1,000 for a beginner emergency fund. Baby Step 2 is paying off all consumer debt, from smallest to largest, using the debt snowball. Baby Step 3 is where you increase your emergency fund to the point where you have three to six months of expenses set aside.

Once you’ve done all that you can begin saving for a home. I’ll call it Baby Step 3b. For folks looking to buy a house, I advise saving enough money for a down payment of at least 20 percent. I don’t beat people up over mortgage debt, but I do advise them to get a 15-year, fixed rate loan, where the payments are no more than 25 percent of their monthly take-home pay.

Doing it this way may take a little more time, and delay your dream of becoming a homeowner a bit, but buying a house when you’re broke is the quickest way I know to turn something that should be a blessing into a burden!
