well if you want to be a specialist esp in the field of pumps and compressors, why not, just be a niche in that area, unlike me, im a static equipment engineer, i opt to be a generalist so that i have the option to go to management role next time.

If managing is your cup of tea, i suggest changing from rotating to static equipment, as its basically a very broad field of engineering. I can safely say, 50-60 % of plants are made out of static tanks, piping, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, fired/unfired heaters, etc. Usually, if you have lots of hands on with these equipments, you are ready to take on managing maintenence, managing projects, and lots more.

Btw, if you are like me still less than 3 years experience, i would really recommend you to really go offshore and learn hands on, then go to detail and technical engineering. I have already been offshore for a year plus, still learning tho 

Its already 1 year since Im working as piping engineer..honestly I really didnt enjoy my job..no site visit, no offshore at all..only office job design n stress analysis..any offer for operation or maintenance? or maybe HUC..aish!
