I haven't flown off-shore since 1999, back then we were under strict instruction that both pilots should identify the installation, and state aloud the name they were reading from the nameplate, or deck.

In the late 80's to mid 90's there were several wrong deck landings, the crews were subjected to the usual ritual humiliation by management and colleagues, and the oil companies complained vociferously, and we all learned lessons and waited for the next incident. Reading these two reports makes me wonder if any of those lessons have sunk in, or if they have just been forgotten.
