I am currently working as a Paint technical inspector at Atlantic Offshore (Owner’s Company) and I was involved in surface preparation and coating application inspections on a similar ship (Field Support Vessel "Ocean Response"). She was commenced at Zaliv Shipyard, Ukraine and finally completed at BMV Group, Norway.
I have been in Batangas City, Philippines which can be considered as the furthest place from my homeland durig the period that I worked as Coaitng advisor at PPG Protective and Marine Coatings.
Most of the times it’s a good and interesting job. Also, it makes it possible for me to travel and to be a member of the team which works hard and effectively to reach the best results out of any project. It’s extremely interesting for me to learn new things about corrosion, surface preparation, coating application and new paint manufacturing products. It’s also a good chance to visit new places, to meet new people beyond the work borders.
Firstly, the job can be a bit risky, exposes you to dangers and bad environments. Secondly, during these projects I am far away from my lovely family.
My next project as a Paint technical inspector is going to be in Stocznia shipyard in Gdansk, Poland. My main duty over there will be the one of the Owner’s representative.
Professional networking, coatings & paints, English football (I always support my favorite team Manchester United) and reading books if there is any spare time in the end.
I always wanted to …… work as a Paint inspector and to never live separately from my family.
