Using Printed Mugs Effectively
Congratulations! Your company or organization has chosen to use printed mugs as a promotional item to bring attention and clients on board. Now that this important decision has been made, it is important to learn how to use printed mugs effectively to achieve your business goals. There are several factors that you will have to consider to make sure that printed mugs will positively impact your bottom line. These factors include effectively building your target audience, effectively designing your mugs, and effectively using a marketing plan to support your printed mugs.First, you’ll need to determine your target audience. This will, naturally, change from industry to industry, and will likely also be impacted by the geographic area in which you operate. As businesses utilize the internet to further their services and products, it’s entirely possible that the geographic area for your business is literally the globe; when deciding the audience who will receive your promotional mugs, however, it’s important to limit yourself only to those people or entities to whom you can provide a benefit. Some business owners succumb to th

• To conduct activities set by directions given by the Rig Manager and Driller and to report any change in programs given to him by the Well Site Consultant immediately.

After the Rig manager, the driller has the most senior position on the rig. The Driller is in charge of the operation of the rig and crew during their tour. They are primarily in control of operating the oil rig and hoisting equipment, and managing the rig floor and driller?s console which includes brakes, throttles, clutches and various gauges. By watching various instruments and gauges closely, the Driller makes adjustments as conditions require.

Drillers report directly to Rig Managers and are the shift foremen responsible for the crew in coordination with the rig manager. Drillers are responsible for the drilling equipment, and for ensuring that the oil rig crew performs its job safely and efficiently, and within the regulatory requir

The Forgotten Advertising Tip
I'm sure while you have seen many tips on advertising, many that talk about testing and tracking your ads, I'm sure that this one important tip is rarely mentioned: Running more than one ad at a time isn't the greatest idea.While it seems like a good idea to spend your monthly advertising budget all at once at the first of the month, is it really gaining you the best exposure? Even if you are running ads on various websites and networks, there is a pretty good chance many of those that see your ad on one site are going to see them on another.Rather than having several ads running at the same time, try to space out your ads a bit and run only one at a time. Why? Well think of it this way. Say a visitor seeing your ad on one site and thinking "interesting, I may have to buy something later". Later that same day if they are on another website I'm sure they'll think, "there it is again, but I'll buy later".Now think if you would have waited a week or two before advertising at that second site in which this visitor comes to daily, and then seeing it saying, "oh wow that site! I forgot I was going to buy there last week,

Oil Rig Jobs range from Offshore Oil Rig Jobs in Australia to Oil Rig Jobs in Alberta to Oil Rig Jobs in Texas. Below we examine the main oil rigs jobs available to those interested in working in the oil and gas industry.

Leasehand oil rig positions are entry-level. The position exists to help inexperienced individuals become familiar with the activities around an oil rig. Individuals beginning as Leasehands can move up to the position of Floorhand within a short period of time depending on their ability and availability of other positions at the oil rig site.

Leasehands perform various duties around the oil rig. They may be required to load and unload trucks, build fences, dig ditches, and assist other crew members with maintenance and pre-job preparedness. Leasehands are also responsible for housekeeping on the rig and often do extensive go-for driving on remote winter roads.

Floorhands on oil rigs spend a lot of time working on the oil rig floor. There are usually two floorhands on a crew but smaller rigs often have only one. In general, floorhands on oil rigs

• use wrench-like tongs to smoothly and quickly connect and disconnect the lower parts of the drill pipe when it is being lowered into and raised from the hole,

• clean and maintain equipment,

• catch samples of drilled cuttings to be analyzed,

• assist in laying casing into a well after it has been drilled, and

• assist other members of the oil rig crew wherever needed.

Floorhands are also responsible for "housekeeping" on the rig:

• cleaning the oil rig floor, and

• painting or scrubbing around the rig.

An experienced Floorhand may move into the position of Motorhand. Motorhands, as with all positions, do not earn their position by equipment knowledge and function alone. It is earned by achieving safe work ethics, knowledge of procedures and by following (not deviating from!) those procedures.

Motorhands are responsible for operating and maintaining the engines that power the drilling equipment. These include the engines that

• run the draw-works to hoist the drill pipe,

• turn the rotary table (which turns the drill bit), and

• circulate the drilling fluid.

There are usually three to four diesel engines and several electrical engines on the oil rig. When not busy with the engines, motorhands

• lubricate moving parts,

• regularly check tongs and spinning chain,

• operate boilers,

• ensure emergency shut-offs are tested and operational,

• maintain a supply of hand tools, and

• help other members of the crew.

Motorhands are also responsible for helping to train Floorhands and Leasehands. Power tong operators operate hydraulic power tongs which are used to connect casing as it is lowered.

An experienced Motorhand may move into the position of Derrickhand. Derrickhands work in the derrick on oil rigs, high above the rig floor on a platform called a monkeyboard. Derrickhands use a harness and platform climbing device to get to the proper position on the derrick when drill string (lengths of pipe) or casing pipe is being raised from or lowered into the hole. On the derrick, Derrickhands:

• Guide the lengths of pipe into and out of the elevators, and

• Steady each pipe while it is being connected to or disconnected from the drill or casing string.

Derrickhands on oil rig crews spend about 20% of their time up in the derrick. At other times during drilling, they:

• Control the viscosity and weight of the drilling fluid or "mud,"

• Listen to mud pumps and check them regularly for vibration and other problems,

• Maintain and repair mudtanks and related equipment,

• Prepare mud reports and instruct the crew handling chemical additives,

• Ensure that the derrick is inspected before raising or lowering,

• Help the driller with the operation and maintenance of equipment, and • Assist in training new crew members.

Not everyone on a oil rig crew is capable of becoming a good derrickhand. Individuals who do not feel comfortable working in high places do not usually move into this position. However, those wishing to become drillers (see the Drillers profile) must have a good understanding of the derrickhand's duties.

Responsibilities among other things are:

• To act as the Driller’s representative around the rig to ensure and report back to him if any deviations from policy occur and support the Driller’s role.

• To conduct activities set by directions given by the Rig Manager and Driller and to report any change in programs given to him by the Well Site Consultant immediately.

Just What Are Consumers Thinking?
Research would indicate that consumers don’t know what they’re thinking. According to an article written by Jack Shimell (2002) for Quirk’s Marketing Research Review, Consumers make their decisions and react to advertising based more on unconscious emotional processes than on conscious rational processes.There appears to be an interplay between the conscious and the unconscious with the unconscious being the driving force, when it comes to reactions to advertising and purchase decision making.There is also a distinct personality / temperament factor involved in consumer thinking and behavior. People with moderate extrovert traits tend to react more positively to advertising, while introverts and people with few extrovert traits would appear to be very difficult to affect through advertising.Part of this may reside in the fact that introverts tend to be energized by solitary activities that are less affected by outside factors while extroverts tend to be energized by outside influences such as social status, social engagement, peer relations, and social value of products or services.The introvert tends to be

If You Could Advertise Alcohol, Smoking Or Gambling, Which One Would It Be And Why?
Alcohol advertising is fiercely competitive and at the same time immensely creative. This relationship is intriguing, as I believe that intense competition fuels agencies to raise the standards of excellence in achieving innovative communications. This competition, well observed in the beer/lager market introduces an element of creative pressure on agencies to create effective communications. I would like to work with that pressure as it inspires originality and excellence in crafting a memorable campaign.Advertising alcohol would allow for intensely engaging and fresh communications to try to allure and captivate consumers to the brand. This is significant for the vodka market for example, Smirnoff, Absolut, WKD etc have a similar audience yet achieving allegiance and belief into one brand is where thoughtful, engaging and commercially effective advertising can be implemented; such that Smirnoff is the most renowned and retentive of its consumers. Building enduring brand loyalty and conviction to a brand would mean exploring consumer insights and developing particular intricacies about the brand that can be crafted into long las

Drillers are actually the Rig Manager’s representative and responsible for the actions of his crew. In fact the Driller is a manager! He is responsible for:

• Ensuring all his crewmembers are capable of performing their respective duties within the parameters of the company policies. Being told they know how to complete a task is not good enough. Proper working procedures must be witnessed and reconfirmed on a regular basis. People tend to deviate from procedure over time as they become too comfortable with the operation.

• Ensuring that all employees wear the appropriate PPE.

• Conducting and supervising regular safety meetings.

• Completing BOP drills, equipment checks (crown saver, motor kills, etc.) as prescribed by company policy.

• The crews knowledge and understanding the importance of these meetings, checks and drills.

• Chairing camp fire drills on a regular basis and revisiting the drills as camp staff or crews change out.

• Instilling a pride for safe work procedures by communicating in an effective manner and by leading by example. Yelling or screaming only makes the employee tense, on edge and in danger of losing concentration on his job thus is unacceptable under company policy. Communicate as you wish to be communicated to relevant to the tasks at hand.

• Ensuring that all documentation is being completed such as meetings, Confined Space Code of Entry sheets, Slings and fall protection Log sheets, Hazard ID sheets, Incident Reports, Work Permits, Motor sheets, Pump sheets, Alert Confirmations and Memo Confirmations etc.

• To keep his area and equipment clean and organized.

The Drilling Rig manager or “Toolpush” is the drilling company’s representative on the rig.

Keeping the rig running efficiently is the main job of a toolpush. That means getting the hole drilled quickly and safely. The toolpush also has to keep costs down and the equipment in good repair. They are responsible for all the paperwork generated at the rig (P.O.’s, tour sheets, reports, etc.) that they must ensure are filled out completely and properly. The electronic tour sheets have to be sent in daily. To do all this, the toolpush needs a reliable crew. This person is on call 24 hours a day.

Rig Managers are the overall supervisors of the rig. They coordinate the work of the crews and individuals on each rig under their supervision as well as the work of any additional service hands that may be required.

Rig Managers normally learn their job through on the job training by working up through the ranks of the basic crew. This experience is vital in order to supervise the oil rig operations, take over running of the rig in emergencies, or assist in times of peak load particularly during rig-up or rig-down operations. Rig Managers must always exhibit superior leadership, excellent managerial skills and precise organizational skills.

At the oil rig site the Rig Manager directs and coordinates all drilling activities with the oil company whilst determining and coordinating optimum drilling practices based upon their extensive experience. They are also responsible for the well being of every crewmember.

Specific responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• co-ordinate the work of all crews,

• ensure that the entire oil rig operation runs smoothly, safely and efficiently,

• ensure that operations comply with company policies and government regulations,

• make arrangements to prepare areas for drilling,

• organize the setting up and dismantling of rigs, and

• ensure that emergency evacuation and medical procedures are posted and understood.
