This combined with the OPEC production cuts should make Summer 2023 very interesting.

Wait until the same offshore workers stop fixing offshore windmills. Those things have crazy maintenance requirements. Shutting off oil and gas for a bit is ok because you have storage. Electricity cannot be stored at utility scale.

Where is this all happening (guessing the UK based on ads at the source)? The idiot who wrote the article never once mentions the location, and whoever was acting as editor obviously didn't catch the error...

Oil and gas platforms will be brought to ‘standstill’ in walkout...

Technically, wouldn't this be a swimout?

I only ask one question?
Do you take a paycut if the corp. takes a loss?
Answer is NO!
I’ve always felt that employees should share in the wealth as well as the poverty of whom they work for. It is my time and my life, I’m giving to an enterprise. I should share in its sucesses and it’s failures.
I’m not promoting communism, but capitalism.
If you run your company poorly, I’m out of here.
eg pay your Managers too much, compared to the people that actually produce something.
I like the way they did it in the Book Moby Dick(The whale)
everyone gets a share of the profits, based on the skills they bring in to the enterprise.
My only change would be, that as your skills grow and are proven, you gain a larger share appropriate to your larger contributions to the profit.

And then, mysteriously, they don’t come back.

Which Biden official is coordinating this one?

By the way, these are British platforms in the North Sea.

Somehow I have to believe government BS is the root cause of their grievances,

Yet another Union is feeling it’s oats.

To benefit from their labor the workers should buy company stock
