Could anybody please give me some info on rov pilot technician what the training entails what qualifications etc and how easy or difficult is it to get jobs once you have been trained. Also can anybody give me some idea of where the best place to train would be
i am taking an ROV technician/pilot training through Texas State Technical College. i have been searching through the jobsl on the internet and they seem to have a real need for them in all oil producing countries. not to mention inland for different types of dam/bridge inspections. i have spoken to Ocean Engineering in Houston and they start at $40k with the right college, ie; electronic training, flight/pilot time and things of that nature. also, if you have welding experience and former sea experience, then that will help out on the payscale also. it seems like a great future in this field also. i hope this helps some. also, here is a link for expected pay for different companies. it is only updated as current employee's send in there information, but it is a prett good baseline as to what you can make and where the money is at.
