Hi everyone, I am new to this forum and just started today. I just graduated in Petroleum Engineering last year in August. After few months of job seeking, I finally get offer with Geoservices as mudlogger. Plus I have contract with Geoservices for three years and penalty of 12K if break the contract (working with other company).
After reading few threads in this forum, I found a lot of bad experiences working as mudlogger. For me, I need to start somewhere in oil and gas and working as mudlogger is the first job that I managed to secure. I joined Geoservices by the end of March 2012 and currently is undergoing full modlogging training at Abu Dhabi for a month.
My ambition is to work as reservoir engineer and I see mudlogging job as my stepping stone to reach my dream. At the moment, I am not sure whether this job will lead me to become a reservoir engineer. The career path that I see is mudlogger -->data engineer -->specialized product engineer (FLAIR, Geonext)--> other segments in Slb. From what I see, it is going to take me at least 8-10 years before I switch to other segments (maybe reservoir engineering) in Slb and at that moment I have to start again. Most likely I will have to stay with Geoservices for the rest of my life.
For me, the first 3 years of my career is very important to achieve my dream of becoming reservoir engineer. I really need good advises so I shape my career to what I want. I hope you guys can advice me. Thanks.
