Production, drilling, or construction employee hours worked
This value is the number of actual hours worked during the calendar year on the OCS by those production, drilling, or construction operations employees (i.e., company and contractor employees) assigned to an operator’s OCS locations. Transportation employee hours worked should include all time worked regardless of location (excluding office staff and management), but allocated among operators if the services are shared. Do not include hours for which the employee is off-work or sleeping. Therefore, record 24 hours only in the unusual event that an employee works through a full day.
