Do you work for Chevron? They seem to have worse luck than Shell with kidnapped employees. Either way good luck.

No, I work for a major you don't here too much about in Nigeria...

Plus, I would have to get Global Security to approve the trip, but its project related, not typically denied.

So there is a major in Nigeria that doesn't have employees getting kidnapped, and **** blown up? I suppose that would be the one to work for then.

Yeah, it all depends on where you are in the country and keeping the locals legally happy...

Human Factors and Safety. I support among many things, the design/construction of new upstream projects from a safety, loss prevention, ergonomics stand point.

loss prevention?

I think the email checking out has merit, now.

Im getting a bit tired of waiting on the lawyer who promised me the 12 Million bucks from my dead relatives. Neither my sister nor I remember them too well. RIP.

Im more inclined to trust the scam artist that is sending me the 8 million of dubious origin, which we plan to split.

Okay, I guess I'm too imbedded into the lingo...

Loss Prevention = protecting the asset from major damage from fire, explosion, etc.
Human Factors = Ergonomics = Human/Machine Interface, task safety, lifting training and job design, etc.
Project = the thing that is built to bring oil out of the ground

Rock licker, sheesh...
