Drawing Boards to Docking Stations is both a serious and light hearted look at the oil and gas engineering industry, as seen from the eyes and experience from one of its long-time employees, Mitch Jago.
Mitch has spent nearly fifty years in the energy sector, starting out as a young apprentice in London, then working overseas for thirty years before returning to London in the later years.
The book talks to the changes from working on drawing boards in smoke-filled offices in the 1970’s to the introduction of computer assisted design (CAD).
Climate change activists, outsourcing and reminiscing about practical jokes, once prevalent in the drawing office culture will put a smile on your face.
If you’ve wondered what oil and gas engineers do, this book may fill in a few gaps and give the reader some insight about a recognized industry where we know little about its characters.
