In the next exciting episode of Proper True Yarn Podcast, our
guest Danny from Bairnsdale takes us on a journey into the heart
of the oil and gas industry. With stories that range from
high-stakes platform strikes to offshore humor, Danny's
experiences are nothing short of captivating.

Danny begins by shedding light on the oil and gas hub of
Bairnsdale, where many locals are employed in this vital
industry. He delves into his time working on the construction
barge named the Hugh Gordon, sharing a particularly eventful
night when the neighboring North Rankin A platform became the
epicenter of a worker strike. The protest escalated to
egg-throwing antics that disrupted operations, prompting the
intervention of the Army. Danny provides a gripping account of
how the military swiftly resolved the situation, restoring order
to the platform.

As Danny transitions to his time in Jakarta and work on gas
platforms, he regales us with humorous anecdotes from the
offshore world. One of his mates, a superintendent on the
platforms, had a knack for comedic quips, and Danny shares one
such joke, demonstrating the camaraderie and unique sense of
humor prevalent in this industry.

laughter as Danny from Bairnsdale opens up about his remarkable
experiences in the oil and gas sector. Subscribe now to Proper
