What is a oil rig tify?
I agree tiffy = instrument artificer= instrument and control technician. When someone works on the ‘rigs’ often they don’t. An oil rig is a facility for drilling oil wich forms part of the structure of an offshore platform. Similar rigs are installed on land as stand alone facilities and many are placed on sea-going vessels Our beloved media love to call oil and gas installations as ‘oil rigs’ , ‘gas rigs’ or sometimes after a bad accident ‘killer rig’. Many such installations have no permanent drilling facilities. So an oil rig tiffy is likely to be a tradesman quailified to carry out instrument work on oil and gas facilities.
