Hey Aquarat,
If your deafness is total then I dont think you would be able to pass the hearing test for the offshore medical. You need to be able to hear the alarms etc on board a ship/ rig etc. If there are lifts going on you need to hear the crane alarms as well as anyone shouting at you not to walk under the load.
If its just a partial deafness, then your medical would be down graded accordingly up to a point.
Your best bet is to ask a doctor who is qualified to give OGUK medicals as they will give you the best advice/info. A list can be found here:

Best of luck mate!
