Working out in the North Sea in March with expected blizzards on the way. Most normal expectations would be to arrive to a freezing cold working environment. As I walk across deck and open the door of the pressurised unit which will be work for the next 2 weeks I am greeted by a blast of heat. The temperature inside the unit is at least 80F. I quickly strip off my fleece and everyone is wondering around the unit in t-shirts.
"Is the Air Con working then?" I venture an opinion. which is immediately shot out of the sky by a volly of sharp stares frome sweaty faces.
" You're on night's. It gets a little cooler at night."
As the shift goes on the heat cools to a bearable 69F and things start to mellow. Lets hope that nothing goes wrong. That will increase the pressure in this unit as Boyles law may explain a few blown gaskets and hotter heads!
