Hi guys,

I am wondering whether how is the Oil and Gas industry in Australia? Is it good? Are there vast vacancies for drilling or completions?

Guys, I am currently working in the petroleum industry for a year + and I have recently did the expression of interest in applying a visa for skilled workers. But it seem I am just lacking for IELTS (which I have taken years ago) and also my mechanical engineering degree from a British University (still accredited under the Washington Accord) to be verified by Engineers Australia. Any of you guys have any experience in getting your degrees accredited through Engineers Australia? I would like to know your stories.

Hi Nemesis. Yeah I am currently in Halliburton in Malaysia. But like you said, once I get my visa settled I will start applying. Planning to retake IELTS this end of the year. Sadly my IELTS from 2008 is no more recognised.

Thanks alot man. Will definitely msg if if there's anything. BTW may I know what part of petroleum engineering are you involved in?
