  1. I worked on contract with Russian companies on rigs , drilling & exploration , in Middle East where they were partners with nationla oil companies like ARAMCO or just straight with Rosneft in Iraq...very odd fellows ... they were very strict but that did not help them. They seem to walk blindly into obvious contractual traps, drilling in places that Aramco knew (even I knew) there was littel prospect ....Viktor was the Comapny Man on one rig "Speak" "go" was his english and when he spoke with the base it was with a similar tone. I got the feeling that they had to work hard and that is not a criticism...but the fear of being "run off" and sent back to Russia was always running in the background. In the end I got on well with some of them after we had a few arguements and then they relaxed more. I could see that a light had been lit as they understood how they might get out of their terrible situation simply leaving the Russian Oil Company and joining a Western one where they could do the same job but not under such duress and stress. Americans are not much different BTW ...unemployed in USA is pretty grim if you have to keep up the health insurance for your family...thank f i am british...is all i think now ..retired ..TF also
