Hi all,

I just graduated in July 2013 (in Mechanical Engineering) and currently working but not in O&G industry. So I still searching for O&G jobs because that is what I am looking for.
Recently, I went to an interview for Design Engineer position at MMHE, and last Monday I got a call from them stating that the interview was a success, and they would like to offer me the position, but on a contract basis.

So now I am in dilemma, because in my current job, my position is permanent, BUT that's not O&G field.

On the other hand, MMHE offers me a Design Engineer position in O&G field, BUT it is 1 year contract.

So all sifus, can you guys enlighten me and also share your opinion on this?Should I go? Should I stay?

Thanks in advance! 

Salam to all,

Just finished my PhD study in Mechanical Engineering (advanced material & electrochemistry). Would like to join Oil and Gas company for better salary. I dont have any experiences in Oil and Gas. I got two years experience in electronic industry. Any suggestion where to start? or any position is suitable for me?

During my PhD study, my career objective was shifted. Now, I'm interested to join oil and gas company, maybe something related with corrosion or electrochemistry related jobs.

Thanks for your advice.

Thanks for

hey guys, not sure if you guys are particularly curious in this area, but in terms of pre-employment medical check-up, has anyone have any idea which company do include blood test in the pre-employment package test ? ( to check for HIV, Hepatitis..etc )

and if the results come out positive, will the job offer be held back by HR ? I think this topic might not be interested by many but worth to discuss, especially for operating companies like Murphy, Shell, Hess, Esso....appreciate anyone from HR Recruitment(from these companies) to share their company policies....

Hi guys. I have recently received a rather lucrative offer to join a downstream gas company in Malaysia. Basically a service and product provider, my position would involve project management (operations) as well as overseeing compliance issues with new and existing installations. I would also deal with HSE standards, costs, budgets, while dealing with various vendors etc. The basic salary is high, with generous employee benefits.

Another offer that I have received is from an upstream consultancy firm. It is basically a purely engineering design related job scope. The pay is slightly above the current market rate, however it pays roughly 1.5k lesser than the other employment offer. Their benefits are pretty much standard to other organizations within the same field.

Truth to be told, I am very confused indeed. The downstream gas offer is a very, very lucrative offer indeed. However, I am not familiar with this field. I hope any seniors here working in this field could provide me with some advice?

Thank you for your input. The thing is, my current offer for the downstream position is much higher and better as compared to upstream
Any idea on how career progress within this industry is like? And what working environment are you referring to?
My current offer is based in KL, but moderate travelling (claimable) to installation and inspection sites.

Ah.. Upstream field engineering is pretty different. I know they earn a lot haha
I got an office job offer la. Not field related

About you friend, what position/ job scope did he have when he was downstream? What did he used to do? And what's he doing upstream now?

Oh, interesting. How long was he working downstream prior to moving with an upstream organization?

I'll be joining Petrofac on 2nd May

EP Engineering is contracted by EMEPMI to supply Professional Technical Manpower (Engineers, QA/QC Inspector, Contract & Procurement, Finance) services. So you will be seconded to EMEPMI via this manpower agency. Your salary were calculated by daily rate & hour rate. And you only observe public holiday for your annual leave. So rate yourself to current market FAIRLY hehehehe 

Like myself my agency is Velosi Sdn Bhd so I seconded to EMEPMI.

There are so many agency contracted by EMEPMI for this professional manpower services such as Prumatech, Carimin, NES Global, ProKaseh Sdn Bhd, VH Energy etc
