depends if u r hired into position or hired into training...
Last info I have, EPMI fresh will get 3.9k basic

suggestion: dont take engineering
chemical usually in refinaries...
yep.. and so do process engineers for offshore

offshore? very very seldom... usually in design stage of plants/pipelines
Depends.. as service providers yes, since all PLC running on PCBs. For operators, u can do maintenance or design, (FEED, BFD, etc)

Exxon grad pay in Msia is RM2.6k last I heard from a friend who works there.

Aircraft maintenance can earn more than gas turbine maintenance, you sure you want this?

i tot LAME guys earn a big bunch too. Also a specialist job. No offence depster666, I got a friend working as a rotating eqpt engineer and I come from aerospace background.

so actually how much they pay?for a gas turbine rotating engineer?  

where can i find the link to which where most people will read the post about job vacancies. I know of some companies needing some oil and gas trademans but are not sure how to reach to them. all i know is jobstreet really sucks in providing the service since more of these tradesman do not surf.

oic...bt i tot thy r jz distributor, so thy manufacture their own compressor too??...so thy involve a lot in petronas projects?offshore or onshore??...do u noe anythg bout de working culture, job prospect, salary??...sori ya ask a lot questions,lol.. ...thanks!!

How about the transportation? Where is the Offshore work located? How about the entertainment? Shopping Mall?
Internet? Streamyx? What is the prefer mobile coverage?

seems like u have the thinking of when u had intern at that certain company, u will have a very big chance of returning to it to work... but, it is a wrong concenpt which everyone believe in... working and intern is 2 different things and most of the big companies dun care a d*** on where u intern... wat counts is how u perform during the inverview, and not where u intern... and for a great salary, it will also depends on ur position, job performance and so on, and not where u intern again...

Oil and Gas industry may bring you the big bucks, but there are many trade-offs.
One of the most obvious, the time spent with your family and friends are definitely lesser.
Having spent 8 months interning in an O&G company, it definitely wasn't all fun and joy there. The stress and workload is high, the working hours are long, and basically, oil and gas companies are situated at remote places, i.e. no fun.

However, if you really want to venture into this field for the sake of money, go for servicing companies such as Halliburton, Schlumberger, Baker Hughes etc.
Operating companies such as Petronas and Shell does not have that high pay compared to servicing companies.

For example: basic pay for fresh grad in Halliburton RM4.5k+, in schlumberger RM5k+
In petronas, it is only RM 4k, Shell RM 3.8k

But you have to set your priorities right.
When I interned there, my collegues always tell me, yes the pay is good, but you get shit all the time, no life.

Just my 2 cents.

Cmon, dont be sarcastic. It's just what my collegues are going through and just wanna share with all of you. Sharing is caring. Different people are entitled to different opinion and I'm sure everyone is free to share their opinion here as well.

Shell technical, they might throw you to join ECS ( Engineering & Construction Services ) whom IMHO is rubbish lol.

Hi OnG seniors,

I have some doubts about the position Oil & Gas Valve Engineer. I have gone through the job responsibilities. So I think this will be a dirty job and also dangerous job if being reckless/irresponsible. This position is at Cameron. My doubts are:

Do they send this employee off shore for months or long term? Or frequent traveling?
Is this more of a company site work or a customer site visiting job?
Long working hours?
Hows the pay for freshie?

Is this job dangerous? I presume it is since it is Oil & Gas Valve Engineer...So the valve is either flammable or highly hazardous.

Does it require the employee to climb up and down to check valves and piping?

"Diving" if offshore? lol

So this job is like 50-70% office work and the rest customer site visits for release and stuff like that?

heheh, you misunderstood me, I'm heading into EP - onshore based, was afraid of getting placed in ECS (since everyone says its crap)

but since apparently its 2 distinctly different area, I'm relieved

But I hear when you work offshore it's like staying in a hotel in the middle of the sea.

Unlimited food supplies, drinks, satellite TVs, internet, gymnasium, playstation 2, can also go fishing in the evening. Good money good life. Just you will be seing the same guys (most likely guys) everyday.
