Drilling in Africa

Does any one know anyone currently working over in Africa or anything about the drilling over there? My man works for Patterson in West Texas. He'll be with the company a year in April and is seriously considering applying to drill in Africa for 6 months, but we don't know a lot about it and I was hoping maybe we could get some experienced information from families that have actually been through it or are currently going through it.
