About MeOffshore the workers have long and often stressful shifts. They cannot just catch a bus home from the 'office' but have to live and work on the platform for 3-4 weeks at a time.

As can be appreciated, when not working the crews relax in a variety of ways such as organising games competitions, as well as watching cinema, exercising in the gyms aboard, organising 'shows' and other entertainments for each other.

This is one of a number of trophies for competitions held aboard Brent D, this was for the winner of a pool competition.
