Post: Geophysicist
Department: Geo Services

Job Description:
- To load, analyse, manipulate and maintain geosciences data to support clients exploration and production operations.

- To perform core interpretation (2D and 3D) and well log analysis.

Although my job is not as interest as the big blue one , but since I am fresh grad here, I think that we (freshies) should not be a choosy person to purposely choose the best employer. Those related to OnG companies is a good place for training before you jump to other better company .

So, those who has not found the job yet, try to look for more company and grab the experience as many as you could. People out there are look for the experienced candidate rather than the good academic/education background.

I can tell you that whoever works offshore need to pay hell lots of extra premium on any insurance Due to the risk involve.

Not really. I had only minor adjustment to my annual premium. I think I still pay less premium than aircraft pilot and taxi driver.

Dont compare with pilots / taxi driver ler...

Risk exposure for an offshore rig : Radioactive, H2S, Blowout, Chopper ditch

Cant think of anything else..if you can overcome your fear on above thing, welcome aboard...hehe

If your a girl, take care! Remember to lock your doors (even if the toilet cubicle is oven hot), even though pple workin there are generally nice and friendly, hardworkin & very careful pple, sometimes they can be abit naughty , Coz most likely the guy girl ratio will be, ermm, 50:1?


For entertainment I think they have Astro, DVD players & tons of Pirated DVD, VCD, CD. Particularly Blue movies from all over southeast asia.

Internet access will probably be limited as I assume they using Satellite Communication if it's far away from shore. Phones are probably more easy to access so at least you can make calls.

They probably also have gyms & recreational rooms. You can also find some good spots to fish, even though it's not allowed...

If you are really bored, you can always eat as you probably will have 24 hours access to food. Quality of food varies depending on the cook. But bear in mind even 5 star Hotel mass produced Buffet doesn't taste that great.

If you are still onshore, suggest you bring along a Nintendo DS or PSP, or ur laptop (with entertainment installed). Or else you will either be chatting with guys or you will be sleeping (most likely) after work.

i think is better you go to the company ask for vancancy.
Dun wait the opportunity happen, make the opportunity hapen.
i just give you some advise. whether u accept it nt?

What are the benefits and disadvantages of International Commuter(IC) compared to other satus like Home Country Resident,Home Country Mobile and International Mobile?

Tunggu time OFS-1.. they'll explain everything to you then.

We never really can be too careful around strangers. But other than that.. I have not encountered any harassment when working offshore. Setakat Playboy terselit bawah katil tu.. buat bodo aje sudah.

Anyone here with a mechatronics degree or diploma? Do you need to do some side reading on fibre optics yourself?

I guess when people look at oil and gas, it has been, and will always be, upstream operation.

I got f**ed up on the deal being placed on MTBE processing plant. Pretty much 0 prospect with ***king limited potential as far as OnG is concerned.
