Answer
Apple -- just continue your brainstorming let your Imagination go

How about artichoke hearts mushrooms there is a cocktail mix also
search the canned food isle

But why not focus on your sandwich - - you can use many different breads - several kind of greens or sprouts - and sliced cheeses or cheese spreads to titillate your taste buds - I fear you may have excluded the many sausage meats that the deli has
Have you also thought of soups - stews and other casseroles spaghetti raviolis lasagna that you can take in a wide mouth thermos hot or cold like jello- potato - macaroni - potato salads
and remember they make insulated back packs for just this purpose - - along with plastic ice bags
My brain is tired - - I wish you only the best

Any good gift ideas for someone going to work on the oil rigs? Something they might need on arrival?

There are probably many things people may have not thought of needing until they arrived to live on the oil rigs, like clean sheets or something?? Anyone know what that item(s) might be?


Answer
Former roughie here.

Old Lady is right. SOCKS, SOCKS, SOCKS. Good heavy wool ones and lots of them. Make sure he goes out with at least one pair per day of his hitch. You might not always get to wash them and you are nuts if you wear them for more than one shift.

With socks there is also good BOOTS. You can make due with the cheaper rubber steel toes, but trust me, the expensive ones are totally worth it. I made due with insulated Baffins for the longest time. Had problems with blisters and traction on steel plating (extremely important) Bought a pair of heavy rubber boots commonly known as "inverts" (because they're necessary for invert drilling) Cost me $250 but they were totally worth it. Also if he's going out now, get the -100 degree boots ($200)as well. Maybe you won't wear em, but better safe than sorry. There will be days when you NEED them. (Give him a gift certificate for Marks or something and buy them in Calgary or Edmonton. You will get the right size and save big bucks)

CELL PHONE- Absolute necessity. Get one with analog and digital coverage

CASH- Come with a couple grand in your pocket or access to it. Lots of companies expect you to cover living expenses for the first couple weeks until you get your first subsistence pay.

CERTIFICATIONS- H2S Alive and Standard First Aid are absolute necessities to work in the patch.

FIREPROOF CLOTHES- You have to wear either all natural clothes of fireproof synthetic stuff, which can get pricey. He'll go through alot

BAGS of rubber GLOVES, glove insulators, "green king" gloves (NO LEATHER)- You would be amazed how many pairs you'll go through

Beyond that there is lots of other stuff that is good to carry with you but not as necessary. Extra blankets and sheets for example. Small cooler to keep food. Lunch kit. It depends on where you end up. Maybe you'll be in a motel and need to cook for yourself. Maybe you'll be in a good camp and not need anything. It's hard to say. A good winter jacket for camp and travelling is a good idea.

What you will not have to worry about with most employers in personal protective stuff. By law they are supposed to supply that sort of stuff. If they don't have it there, they will tell you what you need and give you funds to go get it. For example very often companies have color coded hard hats (Green is almost a standard color for new/inexperienced guys. Less often you see things like blue for management, red for safety etc)

Good luck. One last word of warning though. Watch the price of oil. How much work that is out there directly corresponds to that in more industries than you'd expect.
