You are talking about Seatransport Nigeria limited. It's a good company that gives ample opportunity for starters in the Nigerian maritme industry. But it's managed by Indians and we all know how they manage Nigerian companies. I started as wiper in the company,today I'm a Motorman and very soon I will write my COC exam and become a third engineer..I studied political and administrative studies in school. They only need to increase their salary for their Nigerian crew who do almost all the hard jobs onboard, this will stop experienced and hard working Nigerian hands leaving the company to other companies [qquote author=Tbozun post=126153865] Bismillah Rahmani Roheem My Life at Sea (Being my daily accounts of my experience as a seafarer)
Day One (Tuesday 8th August,2023 I can say my seafaring experience started with the company Oceanic Transport Limited (not real name). My contract was signed on the 8th of August 2023, 3 copies- one was left at the office and I was to take 2 along one for myself and one for the ship's captain. I embarked on the ship ST.MT. ZAHZOO (not real name) the same day. My experience while taking the flying boat to the ship was also interesting. From the window I could see the sea and some ships too were scattered here and there. I also noticed some big granite stones were used to line some places which I figure is to break the strength of the ocean waves and prevent them from going beyond. We were stopped on the way by NDLEA officials and they enquire from the driver who we were to which he answered surveyors and crew members. One of them entered and asked the only lady among us some questions and asked to identify herself which she did. We also stopped at Naval checkpoint and there was not any issue. Now we arrived at the ship and myself and one other person. The scalar (rope ladder) was dropped and we had to carefully climb. Luckily the ship had stair about midway which was used to finally enter the ship. The captain was around and asked for my age which I told him. He asked if that was my first time on board ship which I answered in the affirmative. He said I was older than him and he asked a question which I could not answer. Not a very hard one but because it was long I studied the training book. The officer that came with me said I should have just said something as once you are taught a thing you come to know it as everybody started from somewhere. I pray the captain doesn't use it against me.
I was ushered in and shown the cabin I was to stay. It had an occupant, a cadet,, Mr. Stanley who received me very well and showed me where to put my luggage ( to be contd)[/quote] |

Tbozun: Day 2 (Wednesday 9th August, 2023)
I resumed for work a few minutes to 0800 today and went straight to the workshop to continue my rag cutting task. I had already being told by my cabin mate that I should always endeavor to get to work by 0750H. One of the ladies working in the ECR (Engine Control Room) came to call me and said that the chief engineer didn't know I had come that I should always come to the ECR first or else the chief engineer(CE) will think I came late. On getting to the ECR met some other officers of the engine room. The CE addressed all of us on being hardworking and avoid being negligent. He said he's watching and will take disciplinary action if necessary. He then dismissed us. After sometime he called me to ask for the ship I had worked before and I answered that this was my first time on board. He said I should be very careful being a first timer I should take things easy and should stay away from moving machinery until I know how to operate it. He asked for my career ambition which I told him I wish to progress to oiler then upwards. He then informed me that I should come to his cabin on Saturdays or Sundays to collect his boiler and civil suit to wash. Below is the hierarchy of the engine room ( from top to bottom): Chief Engineer 2nd Engineer 3rd Engineer Electrician Fitter Motorman Oiler 1 Oiler 2 Wiper (I may update in the future in case it's not correct) One of the expatriate (of which I am yet to know his designation) came to call me that the CE wants to do some work that I should assist him. I went to help him bring in some of the things he wants to use to work in the workshop. He later instructed me to empty the dustbin which I did with the help of my cabin mate and the motorman. I also went down the engine room with both of them to clean the filter of the high sea check. Veronica one of the ladies came to call us that provisions for the ship had arrived and that we should collect and put in store. While we were collecting the provisions I moved close to Alhaji Sariyu He told me he wondered why people are so selfish. He said the monthly allocation for the ship for food provisions is 1.2m but that everyone wants to cut their own share. From the captain, Chief Cook up to the people bringing it. We both agreed that that is the general attitude of Nigerians always wanting to get selfish benefits for any chance given to them. I was called to the 'Bridge' (Office of the captain and the ship's navigation center)today at several times to get my personal data and documents.

fashrola: Welcome aboard, it's good to have a fellow seafarer on this forum ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png)
You are lucky to be employed onboard with your age as a wiper, I think you have someone at the top who linked you up in the company and from your story i've read, You are working on an Oil tanker vessel and which could happen to be (ST company - abbreviated for personal reason).
Your job description as a wiper is to keep the engine room clean and tidy, Help out in other engineering jobs carried in the engine room... You are in the lowest rank in the engine room department, and i will advise you keep your head on the ground and learn the job instead of poke nosing on ship provisions etc or using religion stuffs in your workplace since the owner of the company shares the same faith with you.
Your next rank you should be targeting is "Oiler" this is an engine room rating personnel who also helps the duty engineer in their daily tasks in the enginee room and you must apply for the watchkeeping exams and must pass before climbing up the rank.
Then your next rank should be Fourth Engineer and this involves a lot if you keep your head down to study and get your license.
My word of advice to you: Get closer to your duty engineer and learn the piping arrangements of the vessel, boiler operation, Main engine shutdown and starting operations, purifier maintenance and other anciliaries, This will make you a good engineer in the future.
I know the Indians onboard can be frustrating but that shouldnt deter you from learning.
Also as a married man, After getting your Oiler watchkeeping certificate, You can target applying to Offshore vessels which has less contract duration of (2 months on/ 1 month off) unlike tanker vessels of 6 months contract and extension.
I wish you luck!!!
Nice input. What ll be ur advice to my brother in law who just got appointment as a 4th engineer? |

He posted that there are some departments on: Bridge Deck Engine room Galley. Electrician (we call them Elecki) falls under engine room and it ain't an easy position o especially for fellas with no onboard electrical experience. Where I hussle,the position is held by only expatriates. But that may not mean other companies don't have Nigerian electricians though,so you can always try. You can also go the op way by becoming a wiper and worth hard and work your way to the top in the engine room... Good luck 1 Like |

Day 4 (Friday 11th August, 2023.) I worked mostly with the new Fitter today. The old fitter had gone, he had complained that he was supposed to have disembarked but they had found no replacement for him so he had overstayed. I think he said he had used 9 months instead of 6( a contract term is usually of 6months duration,) and that his 3year old daughter that he left would be about a year now.
The CE had instructed the 2nd Engineer in the ECR room in our early morning brief that I should work with the Fitter. The work was a leaking pipeline that carried oil to the hydraulic pump. It ran between two platforms (floors) so it means we had to go up and down from time to time. Abeg e no easy o. I was called to the Bridge ( the ship's main control centre that also doubles as the admin office of the captain ( Master) in the night and was asked to bring a photocopy of my passport.

Day 5 (Saturday 12th August,2023)
Today started well and in the morning briefing of the CE in the ECR room he instructed that myself, the motorman and the cadet should go and clean the tank tops just below bottom platform which is the last platform below which is the base of the ship. Here is located the engine that runs the ship- a massive one indeed. 11,240 BHp (Brake horse power) and 127rpm( revolutions per minute). The diameter of the gear is no less than 3m. In this platform are located the pumps and there are many valves which we had to open and close at different times. We have an intertwining of pipes of various sizes it wasn't an easy job but somehow we did it.
Late in the afternoon after 1500 tea I resumed the cleaning of some engine the CE had instructed I did about 2 days ago which was where I ended today's work.
May Allah forgive me my solat were not really in order today. After Magrib I went to the CE cabin to ask for his civil clothes. I was wearing my sweater on my jalabia so he looked at me strangely and asked are you feeling cold? Then looked under and didn't understand he then asked if what I was wearing was lungi(the wrap around cloth usually worn by Indian men) and I said no. He said do you know lungi( and I said yes. He was about going out when I came so he invited me to enter and sit down. I uneasily sat down he asked about how I was finding the work and I told him I'm managing. He now said something like it will get better. After giving me the clothes he asked if I still had soap and I told him the one he had given me hasn't finished. He now went inside to bring like a small satchet to give me, I even thought it was hypo but he said I should eat it. I later found out that it's peanut biscuit so I ate it - of course after checking whether it was halal. 1 Like |

When Indigenous firms started becoming big players in the system, they made sure the jumbo packages and allowances paid by the multinational companies were slashed and some will even be owing you salary for months.
The maritime industry in the country died the day local content was introduced, Lot of foreign companies left the country with lof of their ships and up till now the indigenous companies can not meet up with the growing demand in the industry.

Tbozun: Day 3(10th of August,2023)
Today also began with subhi prayer, I then started to read my training tutorial to keep myself updated with the life at sea a routine I started from day 2. When it was time for breakfast I went to take it and then proceeded to ECR room after wearing my boot in the dressing room.
At the ECR, the CE was there so also other crew members of the engine room started coming in. As I was waiting I looked around at all the controls and it make to now wonder if all these controls are just for a ship and so complex how then will be the controls of heaven and Earth by Allah be if He were to be using controls but far is He above that. I looked at the wall and saw the general arrangements drawings of the ship with plans and sections. Due to my previous knowledge of Engineering drawings I could be able to make some meaning. The ship was 110 long- not yet sure if that is in m or ft. The ship had tanks-big tanks fa! built into it. I also noticed that the paint store was at the bow (front part) of the ship. That reminds me I have later enquired and now know the answer to the question the cappy asked me. If you are facing the bow(front) of the ship to your right side is the starboard side of the ship while to your left is the Port side.
