Hi , im enrolling in a chemical engineering course right now , i would like to ask for advise on which stream to focus on which will be more applicable to OnG industry
Biotechnology
The opportunities for the application of chemical engineering skills in biotechnology are widespread - from tissue engineering to biosensor development and from development of an artificial kidney to drug delivery - from fermentation processes to biofuels and from drug development to biopolymers.
Sustainable processing
Sustainable processing is concerned with the principles of sustainability and life cycle assessment to the development of environmentally clean technologies for product manufacturing and power generation. In this stream, students will learn how to develop processes for generating energy and for manufacturing existing and new products from renewable raw material sources.
can anyone in the industry give some helpful insight?  smile.gif  ,  the second is more like environemt engineering , while first one is more like biochemistry
I'm enrolling in Monash Sunway Campus
Thanks for any helpful information

Dear sifu and industry experts. I just wanna ask if its advisable to start applying job for the position of graduate chemical engineer in OnG companies before graduating?

I am currently in my last trimester of my Bachelors degree in Petrochemical Engineering. Would complete it by end if this year. I saw a job opening in ExxonMobil exploration and production Malaysia for the position of Recent Graduate Chemical Engineer based in KLCC.

What is the expected salary for freshie in OnG companies. There is a column for me to fill up the expected salary. Hopefully the sifu can help a newbie like me set foot in OnG.

I am pretty sure that the job will mainly be downstream related (i.e. deals mostly with refineries and petrochemical plants). Probably not the best option if you are looking for something strictly o&g.

Yup, correct. I am planning on getting experience first in downstream for 1-2 years before moving to upstream process.

Which university are you from, if you don't mind me asking?
