The professionals required by Teekay offshore are mechanical drivers, winders, chief engineers I and II, department heads, foremen, sailors, lubricators, cabin crew, cooks and waiters. It is mandatory that all people who apply for the positions mentioned above, must have all maritime documents up to date, master English and Portuguese well, previous experience in maritime units on tankers or FPSO's, but if you don't have them, send them anyway, Teekay will provide opportunities for beginners alike.

But what are tankers?

Tankers or Shuttle Tankers in English), have the sole and exclusive purpose of transporting liquids, to which most of their use is intended for the oil and gas industry, chemical products and production inputs. Its load capacity varies greatly from unit to unit, but they always start from 100 tons to hundreds of thousands, depending on the type of service and transport for which it was intended.

Curiosity

The largest man-made tanker ever was the gigantic Knock Nevis built in Japan. Its size was such (about 458.4) that it was forbidden to dock in any port from the planet. The way they found to unload the oil contained in it to the refineries, was to hire smaller ships to do it. Its main route was to transport oil from the Persian Gulf to the United States and to go from one end of the ship to the other, employees had to ride a bicycle on it. It was dismantled in 2010. Curious, isn't it?
