Heads up to anyone who's interested in getting into seismic (a segment within Oil & Gas), my company (Western Geco) will be expanding our fleet with an additional 6 new seismic vessels. They're looking to hire ~800 new employees to man these new ships over the next three years. So start sending in those resumes guys!

I'm surprised nobody mentioned trading so far. Trading is buying & selling of crude oil, gas etc. If you're really good, expect to be a millionaire before you're 40.

To start, get hired by one of the big guys first and get lots of experience there. Shell, Exxon-Mobil, Petronas all have trading in this region. There may be a lot of travel involved so those who enjoy travelling around the world in business class will have some fun here. Once you have experience the sky's the limit!
