Workforce Report 2018
For the purposes of this report the offshore workforce is split into core and non-core workers, with core personnel designated as those who spend more than 100 nights offshore in a year. The number of workers has fallen across both categories since 2014 – by 20 per cent (over 5,800) to 23,113 for core workers and 25 per cent (over 8,900) to 26,217 for non-core workers. Figure 6 shows that just under one-third of the non-core workforce spent less than ten nights offshore in 2017, as companies have reduced the number of non-essential offshore visits. However, since 2014 the largest reduction in non-core workforce is in those spending 81-99 nights offshore – a 34 per cent decline – which reflects the reduction in larger projects and development work.
