I heard that Shell Sarawak is on the verge of laying off 30% of its workforce. Can anyone confirm?

Standard "modes-operandi", contract staffs will not be renewed (exceptions apply). Hiring will be either halted or slow.

Some of their sub departments within their department are like 90% contract staff. I wonder how they will restructure. It will be interesting to see.

Shell will need to balance between laying off local contract staff and expat contract staff.

Heard rumors in the grapevine that news that one international o&g engineering design company's decision to keep expat contract staff and to retrench local contract staff have reached the government ministry. It's better braced for future law suits from former disgruntled retrenched staff.

Very unusual to keep expats and lay of local. Unless their expats are cheaper workers from places like Philippines or India. i.e lower wage workers VS Malaysian workers.

Although it is just Gas Metering Company, but its engineering vacancy requires O&G experience.

asalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera. currently I am doing petroleum engineering and have 1 more semester to graduate. my results are not that good because I mess up during my year 1 and 2. year 3 subject I tried my best to score but I barely pass through it.

with this academic transcript, I am quite demotivated at the moment. however because of my inspiring supervisor I suck it up and will not give up as I have nothing to lose.

I want to pursue career as wireline engineer, is there any way that I can climb into this career path? if I cannot get through it as a fresh graduate, maybe I start from other related job and hop into wireline works later on. kindly advise me on this. thank you.

i search in the internet that slb,hali,weatherford,etc all do wireline. i do not have specific company that i'm pursuing as i am not in position to be choosy at the moment. i will grab any offer that i can get to be honest.

wireline because not a lot of people are doing that job in my opinion, and i am keen on travelling outside.

btw, are you married when you are in wireline? is it mainly family factor make you change your job?
