    Welders can do all sorts off tasks like repair broken equipment which comes under maintenance.

    There are also underwater welders which weld underwater things such as repair and also weld pipe lines. In under Water welding it is a high skill job as you have to have a commercial diving license and train and be a good welder in arc welding MMA (Manual Metal Arc welding) with Arc welding you can also use an electrode that cuts the pipe but doesn’t give a clean cut as oxy & acetylene/propane cutting this is also used underwater at times. But welding on a rig is very dangerous and have to hav lots of risk assessments in place.

    Hope this helps :o )

    There are two basic types of welders employed in the oil field. Pipe welders and structural welders. Most structural welders have not be certified to weld pipe but most pipe welders can also weld structural steel.

    Depending on circumstances, pipe welder may also fit the pipe prior to welding it but their primary job is to weld the pipe. Because of their special skill and pay grade they seldom are employed to do anything else.

    Yes, thank you. I can see by the points I lose just how much everyone wants to tell me it’s an analogy/metaphor/imagery not actual logic.I read stuff all day long where people say, “your analogy is wrong”. That actually is part of an argument.

    Let me guess- this was a government college or community college where those people there are not trained as in higher education colleges. This woman thought you were stupid or may have thought your questions were too much or you may be speaking too quickly. People on the phone when they get nervous speak very quickly. Having said that, she should have been more encouraging and had enough skills to deal with you. It takes all kinds to make a world and successful communication is being able to communicate with all kinds of people.
