Narrative:
ATC facility: sea ground control. Location: sea ramp. We pushed back from the gate at sea without contacting ground control. Controller was upset. Neither the airport page nor the ATIS indicated the need to call ground before pushback. We should have called. Requirement to do so should be stated.
