Competence Pool
Odfjell Drilling’s Competence Pool is a body of permanent employees used as substitutes in connection with sickness, leave and course participation for employees in fixed offshore rotation. Employees of Competence Pool are also available to be used as extra staff during periods of unforeseen activity/requirements for the company. This department mainly consists of employees in the fields of drilling, engineering and maritime studies.
In connection with manning specific positions, we recruit personnel into the Competence Pool wherever necessary training courses and offshore activities are carried out. When there are vacancies on a permanent offshore shift, we utilise personnel from the Competence Pool. In periods of reduced activity in the company, personnel may be temporarily transferred to the Competence Pool to avoid lay-offs and redundancies. The size of the Competence Pool is customised to match the needs of the company.
The Competence Pool has trainee programs that qualify personnel for positions as Subsea Engineers and Materials Managers. We can offer job training, education, appointments and courses to qualify workers for positions in the training period. After completing the training program, employees are offered an eligible position, either in the Competence Pool or on one of the Company's offshore units.
