Further technical study or move into business aspect.
(OP)
I'm graduating from a 4 year Mech Beng in Dublin in just over a month, most likely with a 2.1. I have also gotten an offer for a post graduate taught Msci in Subsea engineering in Aberdeen.
I did a intern-ship in a Subsea engineering design company in Lagos nigeria during the summer. This was an office based job.
I want to work in a practical hands on and on site job, in some sort of remote or exciting(different)locations. I would like a high pressure job where I'll have to deal with other people to find solutions to problems. I'm not sure if these sort of work exists.
I just wondering that by doing a Msci in Subsea will that mean that I am more likely to end up in a office job. Or will it enhance the chance of getting an on site job with more hands on responsibility.
The other option is to work in a fab yard in Nigeria, but this looks a bit limiting technically but seems like a quicker way to managing operations.
Any advice or even information would be appreciated.

However, you are still young, so you get to explore before you settle into your niche. In any case, only you can determine and decide whether one particular course of action is right for you. You might be the next Donald Trump, or not, but it's all up to you. You need to find what makes you tick and get excited, and hop out of bed in the morning, chomping at the bit to get started at work. If you get well compensated for it, so much the better. But, don't go down a path simply because someone tells you there's more money there. The road to El Dorado is paved with the bones of those that weren't meant to travel down that path.
