UKCS Offshore Workforce Demographics Report 2013

UKCS OFFSHORE WORKFORCE DEMOGRAPHICS REPORT 2013

3. Introduction This report presents up-to-date analysis of demographics data for the offshore workforce from 2006 to 2012. The data are extracted from the Vantage Personnel On Board (POB) system, which is used to track the movements of personnel to and from offshore installations. The data are collected in two groups – the total numbers travelling offshore and the core workforce (those working over 100 nights per year offshore). The report will consider the differences that arise between the core and total workforce and between operator and non-operator workers, as well as analysing theworkers’ UK residential locations, the nationalities represented by the workforce, the female demographic and the age profile of the workforce and how this has changed.
