I'm PETRONAS scholar.just finish my study,currently waiting for my final exam result.people at KLCC already contact me.starting salary for engineer is RM2510.If work as Petroleum@Drilling ENgineer RM3500.Allowance is RM30/day at platform.This is consider very low compare to Service Company(Like SCOMI,SCHLUMBERGER,OPTIMAL) coz i heard they earn RM300/day for allowance.But PETRONAS is very good since it is the CLient.not much work to do and you can enjoy the salary that u earn.what point if your salary RM6000/m if u have to work hard since morning till night and no time to spend money that u earn.both have pros and cos i think..

QUOTE(forrest @ Dec 26 2007, 05:58 PM) ya... of course easy life, but if one day when you leave that company, you might have the difficulties to adapt yourself outside petronas environment... i see most of the young staffs just waste their time only... even thou got the opportunities, if i can choose from beginning again, i would like to join service company first before go in pcsb.. I reject chance to be interviewed by SLB last month becoz i already bonded with PETRONAS.i must work for 10 years with them lorr..otherwise i have to pay them back RM120,000 if i breach the contract.damnn.i love to work with service company but the situation is not allow me to do so.now im wasting my time at home before my final exam result will be announced,only after that i can report my duty at PETRONAS.after report duty,again i have to wait for them to find suitable position relating with my abaility.. Now you fell proud because you can grab the chance to work in a big company with good benefit before you graduated, but one day you will envy ppl outside who earn big figure... |

QUOTE(Ezra @ Dec 27 2007, 02:53 PM) Upstream is where the money and fun is, my friend. Work hard for 15 days, then play hard for 15 days lah! Ezra looks like u r already experience in this field Hrm? So eager to disclose the salary level for the engineers in PETRONAS? Btw, the offshore hardship allowance is not RM30/day, it is more than that. And all engineers are actually earning the same starting salary, no matter the discipline. Of course, there are special allowances and adjustments... Not really. If you are looking for technical career progression, consultants/contractors/service providers provide better opportunities. In client companies, you'll mostly be bogged down by management/supervising tasks UNLESS if you make the extra effort to directly do the work yourself. Of course as a client, you just need to review and approve procedures/drawings/specs/datasheets with occasional site visit, but how to gain the knowledge and experience to be 'qualified' to review and approve them? That's where the hardworking and lazy types are sorted out.. Ah come on now, you don't have go on and praise PMU until like that. I'm beginning to suspect that you're from there. You should spare a thought for the PCSB guys who slog it out at fabrication yards, pet. engineers who sit at their PC reading the reservoir data in the weekends, offshore guys who spent Hari Raya out in the open seas. I haven't counted the downstream guys yet. Everyone also deserves praise what. Agreed. Best that you move on early, unless if you intend to stay and move upwards in the company. A common scare tactic which I encountered a lot lately. True, you will probably not be able to work with PETRONAS again once you resign, but look: If you've made up your mind to leave, why think about going back? The world is big, and there are more things out there than in PETRONAS. |

QUOTE(Aurora @ Dec 30 2007, 11:07 PM) Hi there, Haha..seems like more ex-UTP clan here Ex-UTP and PETRONAS scholar reporting here Our work evolve as how the work progress. Being as a client representative, we deal with a lot of people, from skill workers to professional engineer and manager level. Document review is only part of the work. PETRONAS staffs are very marketable in O&G not without any reason. |
