Enfermeiro embarcado em plataforma petrolífera: um relato de experiência offshore

This experience report aims at describing the activities carried out by nurses on an offshore oil platform between 2010 and 2011. Administrative (monitoring, inspection, and water analysis) and health care and orientation (training of the rescue team, health lectures, and health instructions for onboard processes) activities were managed through planning, organization, control and leadership protocols within the workplace context established in offshore environments. Predictable and unexpected occurrences were also taken into account. In this multiprofessional team, the nurse must interact, dialogue with and conduct actions aimed at promoting health and maintaining the physical and psychological integrity and welfare of offshore workers performing complex and dangerous activities in a confined space, as professionals are kept onboard for 15 consecutive days. In this scenario, the nurse is the only health professional to work a daily 12-hour shift, plus 12 on-call hours for emergency care.
