Dynamac isnt an OnG firm, more of specialised frabrication company. Like alpine engineering or some other third party outsource manpower company, your gonna get bullied by the owners (aka SBM, petrobas, exxonmobil, transocean and various shipyards where you will be working at).

Setsco inspection is somewhat similiar to my previous company where there offer professional inspection services which may entail ndt inspection, RA, visual inspection, tank inspection, corrosion inspection etc.

From personal experience, you gain alot more experience and expertise in an inspection services company since your not limited to just one method of inspection but the a plethora of inspection methods. Plus you get to meet with potential employers. Like how i got my current job was through working with them as a sub-contract inspector.

Anyway I chose EM over dynamac because of career prospect. I believe working as a Client even though is manpower supply is much better in terms of career progression and also experience gain. Both position I am interested in. Hope I am not making the wrong decision, fingers crossed.

I've spent many years in one of the top 3 OnG corporation in the world and i fully understand the system that have in place to safeguard the people, the equipment and the environment. do you ? probably you could tell us your work experience to come to such an understanding of your statements ? If not, don't talk to me about being arrogant.

I truly believe that all accident are preventable and humans are to be blame. Ppl failed to follow procedures is the major one. A place is only dangerous if the risk is not managed well. I do have some info on Pulau Bukum incidents but unable to share it due to the ongoing investigations.


Added on October 20, 2011, 4:17 pm
one shouldn't give opinion without the credentials, etc experience in that field at least ? This is not some kopitiam talk, especially with a sweeping statement like 'dangerous OnG industries'

I have audited the coy who is related to amonnia..you know every yr should have at least one person die at the site.
the accident is variety, from the explosion of the pipeline to the person fell off from the top.

A lot of people are earning 5 figure salary in SG. It's so common it's nothing to shout about. Take for instance, my office. I think everyone in my office except for the foreigners(like me), the <5 years exp. people and the dead wood are earning 5 figure salary. No sweat! In Aus, no such luck, mate. You start of with a little bit more than you did in SG and then it hits a plateau. No more room to grow both in terms of money and career prospects. Like I said, just comfortable meaning can comfortably have 3 meals a day, car and a house. Nothing more than that.
Then what comfort what you can get in SG? And why you did your degree at sg?
