Anyone here work in Oil&Gas in Scotland?

Am looking to expand my network and find some people who are responsible for Gas Flare Ignition.
Any stalkers out there use their FAC for work?

Drop me a line please

Did you try Wood procurement ?
Most platforms actually get someone to collect ignition cartridges during their home leave

@Malxwal

There were at least two certified flare training outfits up here, but one is possibly no longer trading, at least the gunshop and ground sold to EJ Churchill. Unsure on the other.
I'm well removed from N Sea production facilities these days.

I did
like wading through treacle trying to find the correct person and department

Sounds right

 

[Blench99]

Think every company has designated persons who have shotgun licence for the job of relighting the flare stack

 

[sauer]

As above .... personally on core crew normally has shotgun cert .
Last time seen it done waasa single barrel Cooey.. and lad took box of shells to light it ....
Lot of platforms use basically a beefed version of peizio ignition

Has to be a FAC as the ammo is Sec1

Bumped into a guy returning the gun to Neil Anderson at Seals Cove a few years ago. If you can track him down he knows the right people

Don’t work in North Sea anymore but I have a Flare ignition users certificate.I did have the industrial firearms on my license. The company that did the course and looked after the guns was INS Aberdeen Ltd

 

[reelme]

The guns used are just 12 bore single barrel we had baikal but these were swapped out for modified brownings some on fac (under 24”) some on SGC .
If you want anymore details send me a pm

 

[Malxwal]

I can still contact one person(owner) who was involved in one of the training outfits if required, PM me.

I was on a rig with twin flare booms.

Rumour had it that the chap with the gun was stood at the wrong flare trying to ignite it whilst crude and gas was ****ing out the other one….

All I know is the rig was covered in crude. Took ages to clean up,
