He missed out ExxonMobil, a main and long time PSC in the PM area. Lundin came back recently after selling of its PSC to Talisman.

Hi..Currently Im working with a consultant company, and working as piping engineer, and it is subsea piping.. It has been almost a year I've been working as a piping engineer, basically office job and doing stress analysis..My dream job is act drilling engineer or maybe hookup or commisioning..need help from all sifus here, what shud I do..proceed with the current job or start chasing my dream job?? Im more on field kind of guy, stuck in office really make me hate my job..

Boss, Drilling Engineer also mostly office based. If you're really keen to work offshore/field, I think better you applying for service companies (slb, baker hughes, halliburton, scomi, NOV, GE Oil&Gas, Weatherford etc) or join hook-up or commissioning like you said...or...you also can look for a training program with drilling companies (Transocean, Seadrill etc)...

www.allaboutcareers.com/careers/job-profile/drilling-engineer.htm

oh i see... can i know what kind of engineering background that oil and gas industry usually looking for? any extra certificate or skills recommended to have better chance to enter this field?

heheh ada la pengalamn sikit2 bro. tp x leh lwn abg beckupp yg senior lg.

to all working on raya, drill safely too.

Thanks for the reply bro.actually I am kinda interested in OnG industry and considering taking up petroleum engineering for degree later on and I am from mechanical engineering course.but there are several types like drilling engineer, production engineer,reservoir engineer,well engineer and etc.I have got no clue on which to join..
Do you or any other sifus mind giving me some advise ? Erm like which 1 has better career prospect or enhancement

He he he...
Pandai la ko nak jack up kita... tp yg tu ak x pernah buat... he he he...
Dulu2 masa time roaming klcc... almost setiap hari kat situ... kuar masuk meeting petronas, murphy, nippon...

tp x pernah lg duk ngorat kat situ...
so ilmu tu tak leh turunkan fasal x pernah buat... walaupun bertahun lamanya duk area tu...
pagi2 meeting utk kena bamboo kat petronas... ha ha ha... bila dah penat kena tarah, kekadang pi low yat plaza cari barang2 komputer... he he he...

Hmmm.. u better do a research what each of these engineers do for their jobs.... As for which one has better career prospect or enhancement...
Each one of them is needed in our area...

Ask yourself, what do you want? Do you want to work at the rigsite? In the office?
As for me, even though money is damn good working offshore/ rigsite, I know that is not my place. So I do not choose it over the money. However, as part of my job I had to be there as well... I hate it especially in high seas when I have to get to the platform from the barge... When the sea swells the barge will move up and down 30 to 40 feet high. You have to time yourself to catch the ladder rope at the end of the widow maker to get to the connecting bridge.... If you are not careful, your wife will become a widow...

And if you work from a semi-sub, it is a lot better... all those engineers you mention will have to be at the rigsite one time or another but their frequency is variable...

What kind of engineering background depends on the job...
O&G doesn't quite use civil eng... but mostly we employ ppl with Mechanical, Petroleum, Chemical eng. background...
Occasionally we get ppl from electronic eng background...

Org dulu2 pakai tangkap muat jee masuk O&G... One guy I know only has a cert in biology but becomes an engineer... Mat Salleh, of course...
Tapi sekarang dah lain banyak...
But there are some cases where it is just pure luck...
So try it.. all your cert and degrees are just to increase the chance of getting in...

haha kena bamboo tuh biasa la bro. seround open table dr manager ilang kejap bamboo nya.

Just wondering..Is it possible to Marketing major graduates to join O&G industry? : /

in downstream section....

currently in a final year BEng mechatronic Engineering student, is there any possiblty for me to join oil & gas company??
