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.

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 engineers  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.

Its that happen in all ong comp or certain only?because i just get an offer from THHE

Thank you for your advise..do you have any idea the job scope for project service enginner?because i got that position

hmmm...I heard all subsidiaries in SKPB which under Kencana (KHL, KPW, KBW) pay a low salary.
Is that true Kencana Bestwide now flooded with expat from India?

Hi seniors, I would like to have some opinions from you for my situation here.
I am a fresh graduate. I got two offers at the same time now.

1. SapuraKencana HL based in Lumut, position is simply graduate engineer.

2. Favelle Favco based in Senawang, position is mechanical engineer. FYI, Favco is specialised on offshore crane.

Both offer the same salary, Favco offer slightly better side-benefits.

For future prospect wise, which one is better? Why?
Do you think Kencana HL is a better stepping stone for me to work in O&G industry?

your opinions are highly appreciated.

oil n gas with less than 1 month bonus?
i am confuse y still lots ppl eager to enter oil n gas....

is it a big surprise getting 1 months bonus?? coz i know the companies ive been with pays just that as an annual bonus. (put client aside tho)

mean the ppl just join with hoping to jump to client?
how many successfully make a jump to client? i cant imagine....

is it better to join electronic industry then? at least 2 months bonus right?

Shouldn't everyone that works in O&G do like that too?

I don't believe none of you never did that before.
