Here comes the situation,

This morning, I got a call from UMW oil and gas, and they offered me to work as trainee drilling engineer. The pay is lower than my current salary, basic rm2700/month and Im gonna need to sign contract with them for 2 years. I forgot to ask about the offshore allowance, but I heard UMW only pay rm100/day for offshore allowance.

At the first place Im not interested since thinking the offer is lower than my current salary. But during the lunch I talked with my colleagues engineersĀ  who got more experience than me, they advise me to take the offer since I can learn a lot at UMW and the drilling job got huge and great prospect in the future.

So I wanna ask opinion from u guys, should I stay in my current company, or go UMW? Please help.

Hi I wanna ask for an advise.

I'm a fresh grad who just started working in local oil and gas contractor company in KL as Operation Engineer. My work rotation is 2 weeks offshore, 1 week off, 1 week office. My job during at the offshore is doing the chemical test and taking care of the operation there. My background study was in mechanical engineering. My total salary every month (basic+offshore allowance) is around rm6-7k. If basic pay alone, mine is rm3+++. Offshore allowance rm200-250 a day.

Hello.. I'm pretty sure that you guys have had  this question asked many times but I would really appreciate a feedback.. I'm a female mechanical engineering final year student and will be finishing in June. My CGPA is just over 3.0. I have been interested in oil and gas industry for the longest time. Just want to know what are my chances of getting into OnG industry? Do I start applying now? Which companies accept fresh graduates? I don't mind being based anywhere in Malaysia.

3.0 is good enough. chances will always be there, its how persistent you are when it comes to applying. are you a Degree or Diploma holder? Yes start applying now. I applied back in December 2013 and currently waiting for Baker Hughes to confirm with me whether im in the final stage of interview or not, im graduating this November. Apply as much as you can.there are alot of companies, you can try the big players like Schlumberger, Haliburton, Baker Hughes, Weatherford, Shell, Petronas, exxon etc. Apply for small companies too. biggrin.gif

Are there demands for graduates with electronics engineering background in the OnG industry? Or in other context, does it matter which engineering degree you have?

Hi guys, I am an ex-employee of SapuraKencana Bestwide (3 years of service). I am writing this to inform everyone who wants to join about pros and cons. Most of my friends currently inside is dying to get out, they have to serve 3 months notice period or pay it off (trap) mad.gif

As the name suggest, this is a subsidiary of SapuraKencana Petroleum Bhd. This subsidiary oversees the engineering and project management of Kencana EPC team.

The Pros :

1. Lots of projects (CPP and Riser Platforms) & project tender
2. Office in Publika drool.gif rclxm9.gif icon_idea.gif

The Cons :

1. Below market salary for local engineers
2. Bad management system
3. No reward for performing staff
4. Very high turnover rate
5. Office politics (Inter-department and Intra-department)
6. Not as well established as other consultancy
7. Lip service to retain staff
8. No career prospect


For anyone who is thinking of joining this company, please consider twice. Oil and Gas is not everything unless the pay is good / career prospect is there.

Cheers.
