Intern Program Information :

This program offers students enrolled in oil and gas production degree programs the opportunity to work offshore and gain valuable job experience.

By intentionally promoting the program to students of varied backgrounds and demographics, and by providing practical experience, Danos is contributing to the growth of diverse new talent for the industry.

Each participant in the program spends six to nine months receiving hands-on training in an offshore environment. Field internships are made possible through the support of oil and gas operators (Danos customers) as well as the schools’ willingness to accommodate an offshore schedule.

During the internship, students work -days on followed by -days off. Currently, all interns are placed in offshore environments, but Danos would like to eventually offer onshore placements as well.

Internships typically focus on production operations or instrumentation and electrical (I&E). Students are assigned a mentor working for the operator, who is responsible for directing their learning and providing feedback and assessments.

The interns generally shadow multiple employees around all areas of the offshore facility, performing tasks like walking rounds, checking levels and valves, assisting with work on compressors, introductory control room work and more.

The goal is to give the intern as broad an experience as possible with hands-on tasks and exposure to day-to-day operations.

Though the training is offshore, it also helps the intern qualify for work in the onshore environment, like plants or other industrial facilities, expanding their job prospects even further.

By offering interns on-the-job learning opportunities with support and mentoring from industry professionals, the program helps these students build skill sets and gain experience that truly sets them apart.

Danos works directly with customers and schools to ensure that interns are meeting goals and that training programs are aligned with industry needs
