I am sure others can write in but I think an average base salary is $120k for a DPO. But that is base. You have bonuses and all that. Not to mention getting paid for schooling. If I am not mistaken, Ensco’s DPO’s are not required to hold an Unlimited license. There was a thread about this in the past.
