not to pour cold water, but be sure of what you really want before entering into O&G industry, as not everyone will offer big bucks in comparison with equivalent jobs in other industry.

and the industry is in sunset (well, some would say it's sunseting for the past 20 years anyway) especially in malaysia, so be willing to relocate

My cgpa aint touching 3.5, merely 3.0 but heck i care, i just send in..  

Need some feedback,

I have received offer for NDT position for O&G sub-contractor but pay is to say <2k with a 5 year bond and allowances are fixed. Increments are based on performance but not exactly significant.

With a mech engineering degree, what do you guys think is the offer worth taking or should I wait for a better offer?

They have been saying that the industry is a sunset industry for the last 30 years , same thing for Malaysia, been saying that the oil is going to run out in 15 years and that was 15 years ago ... so technically we shouldn't be producing any oil anymore .... never trust all those analyst ... these are the same analyst that tanked the economies in Europe/US etc ...

Market in Malaysia is booming ... I've got an offer for 70K a month ... but it's a contract and I have 2 small kids so can't take up the offer ...maybe when the kids are bigger we'll see.

It's always been that way. Or that's what they want people to think. If there's so much oil and gas around will they be able to increase the price? Go figure.

I am relating to you the situation 5 years ago, I know they have changed the salary scheme for technical professionals. The starting pay for fresh grads has increased to 4K now. When I joined the company, it was RM2050 per month, so that's doubled after 15 years. They also implemented during my last 2 years there the technical allowance for specific skill groups such as SKG9, SKG10 (G&G and Petroleum Engineering) where you get a range of allowances for your technical skills (900 for Senior Execs, 1300 for Staff and 2500 for principal etc etc)

When Dato' Shamsul came on-board 2 years ago, he drastically changed the remuneration scheme, those in the technical ladder or in certain critical skill groups are got a 30% pay raise and (I'm not sure about this), a bump in bonuses and skill allowances (though I've heard that have been removed ... not too sure).

My colleague who is at the same skill level as me is earning close to 17K a month now so that was close to 2.5 times the salary when I left 5 years ago so they have changed a lot nowadays.

They have even allowed for ex-Petronas to return on a contract basis (3 years contract IIANM) and the salary is upwards of 30K and above per month. The previous CEO had some sort of vendetta against ex-staff where there is an unwritten rule where any subsidiary is NOT ALLOWED to hire ex-staff (this must be against the labor law but it was done nonetheless). That unwritten rule has been abolished as per the new CEO.

True. And even if ONG is sunsetting, there is still other unconventional resource that currently picking up rapidly, like coal bed methane and shale gas. So its always opportunity out there. Just you need to be in the right discipline.
Even right now im working in cbm field for client in Australia. A bit different but quite interesting.

I wouldn't say that. Easy oil is getting harder and harder to find and demand for oil is extremely high right now so that's another reason why the price has quadrupled in the last 6-7 years. I remembered 7 years ago when oil price was trading in the 25 USD range and 13 years ago it was trading at USD10 range. A lot of those skill engineers are retiring so getting skilled people is becoming harder thus due to supply and demand, these skilled people are getting paid higher and higher.

When I was in a task force in Petronas, you can see the almost 1-1 correlation with regards to the price of oil and the number of attrition in the skilled personnel that we had. By the time it was 2006, Petronas had lost a total of 1500 skilled personnel to the Middle East/Europe/Other IOC oil companies

Now the Middle East companies re concentrating on Petrochemicals and I know of an entire department (from the managers downwards) that was poached. It was a Cut & Paste operation ... the entire department became the new department in the new company but triple the pay ....

I think you are someone that I know...
I know only one company that working on CBM for an Australian company.

just out of curiosity, the m.east comps swooping experience up, wont that at least have a slight effect on companies we have here?

or is that our experienced engineers are still in good numbers companies not feeling that much of a pinch since when ever a job add comes up they want experienced ones.

They removed the skill group allowance, and increase about 40%, based on experience and skill group, staffs with 3 years experience and below doesn't affected much.
BUT drilling engineers still getting the scarce skill allowance.

I heard that nowadays Middle East companies lower their requirement (recruitment) from 10yrs -> 7yrs -> and now 5yrs, is that true?
