O&G Industry pays top dollar to a skill set called Materials and Acquisitions or Materials & Planning .... similar skill sets as a quantity surveyor.

Hi,

I wonder if anyone is a safety officer in any o&g companies and wondering what r the certification that they normally would like to see from a safety officer. I'm currently a safety officer in a shipyard and want's to try venturing into oil and gas or related field.

Contact Administrator? Sub-Contract Exec? Procurement Exec?
Cost Engineer? Cost Estimator?

In China quantity surveyor called engineering cost..

What the actual position called? Now I currently studying bachelor in quantity surveying, do I have a opportunity to work in this field?

I'm in QS field as Contract Administrator. Daily rate salary. Currently working with ExxonMobil. I've been in O&G Contracting & Procurement for 7 years already.

Fresh QS background the place start to work in O&G is by joining fabricator like Brooke Dockyard, THHE, MMHE, Labuan Shipyard, OceanMight, Boustead etc

Weird thing is my degree is in IT

QS background - Contract Administrator, Contract Exec, Subcontract Engineer, Contract Engineer, Cost Estimator etc

A good friend of mine, a QS graduate, is now the Procurement Manager (now they call SCM) in one PSC company.

He started as a contracts administrator (he also doubled as meeting's scriber ) in one of the local fabricators and worked his way up in a few PSC companies before landing on the current job.

Anything is possible in O&G, you just need to work hard and smart, and build a network of connections. And play golf!

Alamak.. i do not play golf...

Hi bro Mohdyakup, can you further explain more about the job scope when fresh graduate QS do? and how about the salary

Alamak bro...we are in the same ship la...
The different is Im with diploma & degree in QS.
Psssttt....exxon got vacant arrr for Contract Admin?


bro....are you fresh graduate? If yes, don't aim to much on salary. Just grab the opportunity 1st, gain as much knowledge & experience.
I will say, in O&G, is not so much different from the fundamental of practice as QS (or what we learn before). Just nature of work is different comparing with building construction.

Just wondering, will structural engineer in oil n gas ,client/epcc(feed) get to go offshore (often)? How hard is it to get Ir if working as structural engineer in, say Technip? thanks
