Working in Norwegian/Dutch waters.

[Guest guest]

Hi All, I've got a queery that someone on the list may be able to

solve.

I've been informed that only Registered british nurses can work in

the above mentioned waters.

But I have also been informed that if the medic is not a nurse, but

is audited yearly by a Qualified Doctor, that he would be allowed to

work in theese waters.

Anbody know the rules, and where I can find them.

Yours Aye

Rab

It depends who you work for. Total require nurses but the other

companies don't. You may also have to do a week's course every year.

I did mine at medico's in hull in october.

Hope this helps.

Rab,

There is no problem for Medics to work in Norwegian or Dutch waters as I

have worked in both. Could possibly be operator preference??

Although if you are a Medic onboard a dive support vessel in Norwegian

waters, the Norwegian Maritime Directorate requires a Registered Nurse

to be on board.

Also worth noting that if you do work in Norwegian waters, you are

liable to Norwegian Tax which is more that UK contributions.

Waqar.
