I've already work with Fugro for 2 1/2 years (Mainly in Malaysia and Thailand). I'm still seeking for experiences which is still a lot to learn.

About salary increment, so far I get increment annually or you have been promoted to another grade (eg: Probation>Junior). Plus I get 13 months pay annually.

Actually, I don't have to come to KL office frequently since I'm a 'Field Staff'. Most of the time, I'm at home either for holidays or standby for the job. USD40/onshore allowance applies when you working onshore and travel to another place, mobilise equipments and etc.

To be the truth, Fugro is quite a big name for Seismic and Positioning services in OnG sector in this region. More info: http://www.fugro.com

Bro,

Looks like you are one of the slb trainee/junior engineer who need to becomes GFE in 3 years...

I dont know how it is in slb but i do work for 1 of the slb segment.....i bet you ever heard about westerngeco...

yeah i am one of the specialist onboard seismic vessel.....i know and i've seen numbers of seismic engineers quit coz they cant complete gred 11 within 3years...most of them were under pressured d/t they need to take over chief's job when they get to gred 11 which is normal crew spent 10-15 years
before became a gred 11 chief ...one more thing is, the 5weeks onboard, 3weeks office assignment and only 2 weeks break schedule seems the main reason why most of the engineers quit...

not sure what was your reason....if you hate the hard work and shitty schedule in yamen you are most welcome to joint seismic crew coz i can give guarantee there is no hard work, greasy coverall, sweat like a pig at all....you will enjoy recording room, sitting on the chair, starring your eyes to 12 diff monitors for 5 weeks and a solid break...no on call, no stay over or no surprise at all...

well ya...i was talking about seismic engineer program...but for a slave program..or so called specialist we enjoy our great rotation, 5week on and 5week off...

money wise....no doubt other segment in slb makes more than us....
the only thing make me stay here is the fix rotation...no prob at all to plan for vacation…

once you done with ur Msc you are most welcome to westerngeco...you could choose either to become specialist or engineer...then you will enjoy your life...money….OK larr….
