Haha... Your BOSIET holds no value after this if you don't have PTW. Carigali's platforms require PTW to board.

all can pass, but i forgotten what was taught d. haha.

I know one man from Petronas who worked his way up as a painter to a Dril Sup if the news encourages you.

That's was like 20 yrs ago..it's already hard to climb the ladder without a proper academic qualification, but you know in O&G anything can happen if you are strong and determined enough.

Grad is 3.5k

well, if they had revised the starting salary, that's good news to fresh graduates.

hi all,i have something to ask and would love to hear opinions from all of you here..

1st,offer from transwater api,i will need to travel a lot for this position,i heard outstation allowance there is high,but still need to check with them because they just inform me yesterday.

2nd,i will attend 2nd assessment day with petra energy this coming wednesday,they offered fast-track engineer program which means in this 1 year,i will bond with them and after finish this program,they will assess and placed me based on my performance.(basically petra group consist of 7 companies,so in this 1 year program,they will send me to all the departments before being assess)

other information:this 2 company give same salary,transwater give much higher outstation allowance than petra,but i think work in petra means 2,3 months directly onshore/offshore,that is why they can not give high allowance..

so,let say i success in petra assessment day,i need help from all otai here to decide which one will suit best for my 1st step into this industry..im sorry for my bad english.thanks.

I'm working in Shell in Bintulu now as a Contracts Specialist. Any questions for me?

there's one more, as-built drawings. the AFC dwgs will be updated to 'As-Built' drawings to reflect the final built of the structures.

when is the walk in interview? Can't read your post,too small.

Hi syarehey,
Pls can you advise petrofac's job opening detail? The snapshot is blur when zoom in, yet could not find any info in internet. Thanks.

It seems like to enter this field u need good cgpa. Am I right?

i am a non-engineering graduate, working in SHE related position in manufacturing/research laboratory environment for 3 years, then plan to take Master in SHE Engineering.

Upon finishing the MEng, will i be considered as fresh grad in SHE O&G when applying position in O&G and has to compete with other fresh engineering grads applying for SHE position also?

Is it feasible to pursue this Masters in SHE route as a ticket to enter O&G industry?

Need advice from veteran here. thanks.

Your comment, so racist. To be honest, ONLY in oil & gas you can see a balance of race mixture. Do you see that in any other industry? Sadly no. Please don't get me started on accenture and the likes ok.

You don't get a reply because you don;t make the cut. As simple as that.

hehe from the statement implies that HSE from non technical background is common then..

mind to elaborate your experience with them..

scorecard for the manhours is simple, that is very worst if can't do it.

what is the most worst is risk assessment (which is the core of their main responsibilities), interpret wrongly and not competent to do.

oh calculating manhours daily only ah their job..so easy one..that one like site supervisor only..

yes risk assessment is the core..

Roughly:

Most metal to metal joints in this world are welded.

Welders are one of the most in demand job in the world actually.

Often to start as a welding inspector you need a CSWIP 3.1 most of us look down upon PCN WI's. Inspectors can work either for the client side (big bucks) or the contractors side. A 3.0 will help you gain the experience to take the 3.1 examination.

After a few projects usually you will meet some of the same inspectors you know cause they suka lompat.

For the most part oil and gas  both upstream and downstream is not for small businesses. The capital required is huge, plus at least in Malaysia, the connections you need is significant ie. not just some random datuk but on the sultan level and ex-PM level

There are people who start businesses in oil and gas obviously, I know one personally who's doing stuff on the downstream side, but the paid up capital for his company is in the 7-8 figure range, etc. There are other opportunities eg. software development and training but you're competing against the big names in an industry where money is not a huge problem so you need to know what your competitive advantage is.

The other reason why you don't see a whole lot of people leaving the oil and gas jobs to start their businesses is because the money is good. If you ever look at the Robert Walters salary survey for example, the base salaries are quoted in USD for this sector, compared to RM in other sectors. Not a lot of people who get paid US$100-200k salaries + bonus with pretty decent job security want to venture out on their own.

I'm not saying you shouldn't try though, so good luck!
