The OOW Engineering Watch is responsible for maintaining a safe and efficient engineering watch aboard an offshore vessel or installation. Typical requirements include an STCW-compliant engineering officer certificate, relevant marine or offshore experience, valid medical and safety certificates, and strong knowledge of diesel engines, power-generation systems, pumps, and emergency procedures. The candidate is expected to monitor machinery, carry out inspections and planned maintenance, respond to alarms, maintain accurate engine-room logs, and support repairs and troubleshooting. Good English communication, teamwork, discipline, and the ability to work rotational shifts in demanding offshore conditions are essential. Experience with offshore support vessels, dynamic positioning systems, or international projects may be advantageous.
Global Projects Services AG is an international project-services and engineering company associated with the offshore energy and marine industries. The company supports clients through technical personnel, vessel and project operations, engineering expertise, and specialized services for demanding offshore environments. Its work typically involves mobilizing qualified professionals for marine construction, subsea, drilling, renewable-energy, and oil-and-gas projects in different regions. Employees may work on vessels, offshore installations, shipyards, or project bases and are generally expected to meet strict safety, competency, and medical requirements. As with many international offshore contractors, assignments can involve rotational schedules, travel, multicultural teams, and employment conditions that vary by project and client. Applicants should confirm the exact employing entity, contract jurisdiction, rotation, benefits, tax treatment, and certification requirements directly with Global Projects Services AG before accepting an offer.
For offshore and rig personnel, island locations such as Malta, Cyprus, the Canary Islands, Mauritius, and Singapore can serve as useful crew-change or project hubs. Opportunities commonly include marine engineering, deck operations, drilling support, subsea work, vessel maintenance, logistics, HSE, and catering. The culture is usually international and practical, with strong emphasis on teamwork, safety, punctuality, and respect for different nationalities. Lifestyle depends on the rotation: offshore work is structured and demanding, while time ashore offers beaches, water sports, local food, and relaxed social life. Visa requirements vary by nationality and whether the worker is joining a vessel, transiting, or residing ashore; a seaman’s book and joining letter may be needed. Employers commonly arrange work permits, flights, accommodation, and medical checks, but this should be confirmed before travel. Relocating families requires separate residence, schooling, and insurance planning.
