Is it difficult/ not recommended for a woman to work in the OnG industry?

not really, many female frens of mine join ong. mostly men work offshore.

Hi guys..im new here.Recently graduated in civil engineering,majoring in oil n gas upstream. Just want to ask some opinion from seniors, which opportunity offer me the best career development/future:

1) RWP Kerteh (Position: Civil / Structural Graduate Engineer)
2) Sapura Kencana (Position: Trainee Engineer)
3) Dialog Asia (Position: Plant Maintanence)
4) Cape Group (Position: Field Services Engineer)

Dont have any clue which offer might help me to be involved much in the industry in the future

You need to know what area in the O&G that you think will be suitable or fit with the experience and degree that you have. You need to tailor your CV as well so that people can relate to what you do now in construction and how that experience in construction is similar or will be useful to the job you're applying. Ask some of your friends who are already in O&G about what they do in their field of work and then once you get an idea about the scope of work the do, tailor your CV towards that. Meaning, if you do something that has to do with the environment, then O&G also has some areas where they need to comply with DOSH and Environment etc.

Good Luck.

Hey. I'm a lady. Come join us happy berry.


In my current company it's very very normal to see female engineers. All departments. Mostly in process, instrument, electrical, structural. Most of my friends in other companies are in safety. And some in service companies in wireline, LWD, completion. Too many to name. Even the HOD of the instrument dept here is female. The GM too.

Important topics on labour law, introduction to the oil & gas industry, international economics, marketing, strategic management, econometrics analysis as well as the essentials of quantitative systems & business applied in oil & gas have been developed by educators and field experts to provide a distinctive learning experience for students.

Engineer = Kuli

Any people like to give their 2 cents on the link(thread) above? The whole thread scares me.

Choose option 1).

IMO.. option for No. 1 or 2.. If you at right department, no 2 is the best..

And you believe all that have been said in kopitiam?

Why do you think I brought it up here?

You are kuli if you choose to be kuli. Nothing is easy but not everything is hard.

So, my say, the TS doesn't know what he is doing and has no direction in what he wants to achieve.
