The Perfect Storm in The Barents Sea

Continuing my adventure...
Today the work is stopped...The reason...? Nothing special...Just a nice breeze over the Barents Sea!
Waves from 6 to 8 meters and a REALLY strong wind!It's going to last for, at least, 2 days... Hang on sailors!

Just made a movie from several places in the ship...Deck, bridge... and to create some more drama added a soundtrack - Carl Orff, Fortuna from Carmen Burana.


Sorry guys...Unfortunately someone sitted behind a desk without anything else to do thought that this 2 minutes could be dangerous within a "corporative view" of offshore work. I was asked (forced) to delete the movie from the net... Whatever...fight the system...I will get a way of getting the movie back here again (just not in youtube) ;)

Good Morning Barents Sea



Good morning from the Barents Sea...


As all of you know (or not...) my first offshore job is going to be somewhere in the middle of the Barents sea, 1500 km from the North Pole. For 4 weeks the only thing I will see in the horizon will be water...Anyway this is been, so far, a unique experience. My shift will be from 0:00 to 12:00 everyday so I'll have the privilege of seeing this sunrise every day. Lucky me!
