hello all. long time lurker in this forum. now need some advises from the otai otais

recent chem eng graduate here. is it advisable if i start off my career as a trainee drilling engineer (fast track work up from roustabout -> driller) in a drilling contractor company. then hopefully in the near future move on to being a drilling engineer in an operator/client company?

is that even possible?

any advises will be greatly appreciated!

I would like to share my experience and observations regarding this.

First of all, from what I know the local companies that offering this Trainee Drilling Engineer are UMW and Perisai. I'm came from one of them .

From my observation (local companies), yes, the training is to develop you to become a rig key personnel i.e. Driller, Toolpusher, OIM etc...Is it advisable? I would say yes because you will work as a regular roustabout, roughneck, etc etc....and will know well about the rig equipment and operations. First hand experience!

For some of the international drilling contractors (Transocean, Seadrill, Ensco, Diamond etc), they have different programs, either to develop management positions (rig manager, asset manager, subsea supt) or specific rig positions program (Driller, Subsea Engineer, Mechanic, ET etc)

In near future you want to switch to become drilling engineer (operating company/office job)? Yes I saw some of the trainees (international company) made that switch after a few years doing rig jobs (still in the program)...But, I never saw a guy completed his/her training and become a regular Assistant Driller or Driller switched to become Drilling Engineer. They already have fix rotation job with 4weeks on and 4weeks off (fully paid). Some of them that I see will progress up to become OIM or Rig Manager(office job) or another rotation jobs i.e Drilling Supervisor (operating company) or Directional Driller (services company).

So, for the start it is a good exposure and experience to start working hands-on in this trainee program if you are good with physical jobs and know how to be good with people around you (friend/networking).

Later on, along the way the process you might have a better view or a better choices...

That's the exact answer I was looking for. Thank you meonkutu!

Because I noticed international drilling contractors (like Maesrk) calls their fast track programs Trainee Driller. Not drilling engineer. So my biggest concern was the fear of pigeonholing myself or being stuck as a driller.

And yes I was thinking maybe when I'm considering to settle down being a drilling engineer in an operating company (office job) will be rather decent. Now that I'm still young and capable I should be out there learning in the fields.

You're right about The Driller Trainee Program in Maersk Drilling.

One thing that I should highlight, there are differences between Trainee Drilling Engineer in operating company compare to drilling contractors. From what I know, operating companies will give their Trainee Drilling Engineers/WellSite Engineers some periods of time to work on the drilling rigs maybe 6 months (maybe more or less) and then will stay in the office. The DE with the team onshore will plan the wells and come out with the NOOP, DWOP, Pre-Spud meeting and so on..During the execution of the drilling program, the onshore team will constantly monitor the progress and liaise with the companyman(Drilling Supervisor) onboard.


TDE in drilling contractors is the one who physically works onboard 12 hours a day, 7 days a week depends on your rotation for how many weeks. Your are part of the team that executing the drilling/workover operations based on what has been planned on the table. Everyday (if you are driller), you will receive the Standing Instruction on what to do for that well section.

Having said that, if your are with drilling contractors for let say, 3-4 years (maybe you are doing Assist Driller) and want to switch to become DE, I'm not pessimistic but maybe not that easy because you have to compete with fresh grads, also if you with them from the start, you already designed a few well programs and about to become Sr. DE.

One more thing, please note that Fast Track Program in local companies not that 'fast' as you think. Just beware.

PETRONAS Widens Talent Search, Offers Overseas Graduates Sponsorships

Driven by a desire to grow its workforce to cope with an expansion in the company’s operations worldwide, Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS) is offering sponsorship to overseas graduates who are keen to embark on a career with Malaysia’s national oil and gas firm
oyees,” the Malaysian NOC said in its statement.

INDUSTRY SKILL SETS REQUIRED

Recruiting suitable skilled employees has been a major priority for Asia’s oil and gas industry since this could impact directly on growth in the sector. Skills shortages and/or aging workforce was ranked after operating costs as the second most critical barrier to the industry’s growth in the region this year, Norway’s DNV GL pointed out in its “Challenging Climates: The Outlook for the Oil and Gas Industry in 2014” report.


Based on its observation, the Malaysian NOC has identified 13 job types that the global oil and gas industry needs to fill urgently, which include:

Geologist
Petroleum Engineer
Mechanical Engineer
Chemical Engineer
Electrical Engineer
Asset Management (Integrated Process Engineer)
Techno Commercial
Marketing
Logistics
Plant Operations (Petrochemical)
Health, Safety & Environment
Marine Operations (LNG)
Tax & Accounting

PETRONAS OVERSEAS TALENT SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
Talent management is a key pillar in the firm’s business growth as PETRONAS recognizes that “an organization is only as good as its talents.” To help expand its global talent pool, the company developed the PETRONAS Overseas Talent Sponsorship (POTS) program.


PETRONAS set out to achieve several objectives through the POTS program:

To source and acquire potential multinational talents to support the PETRONAS Global Talent Strategy
To build a talent pool to realize the global expansion and ensure sustainability of PETRONAS’ businesses
To leverage on the PETRONAS Education Sponsorship Program to promote PETRONAS’ branding through scholarship program
To support the Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP)’s vision to be an internationally-recognized higher learning institution as a partner of choice for the oil and gas industry and a respected member of scientific communities by 2025
Under POTS, successful overseas candidates will be offered an 18-month development program covering a comprehensive on-boarding course as well as leadership and development stimulations. In addition, they will pursue a post-graduate Master of Science (MSc.) program at UTP in one of the following disciplines: petroleum engineering, process integration, petroleum geosciences, asset management and maintenance, and process control.

PETRONAS revealed that another MSc. program in drilling might be added to the existing POTS disciplines, subject to approval by the Ministry of Education in Malaysia.

The subjects offered at UTP, which was established in 1997, under the POTS program was chosen because “these areas are considered critical in PETRONAS and highly-demanded by the company,” the firm explained.


It has already selected the first batch of POTS applicants, who will commence their program in May. The 11 POTS scholarship holders are from Britain, Colombia, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Slovakia and Spain. Six of these candidates will pursue a MSc. course in petroleum geoscience, three in asset management and maintenance, and the remaining two in petroleum engineering.

The firm expects POTS recipients to add to the diversity among international students now studying at UTP, where currently the “majority … come from non-developed countries especially from where Petronas operates,” the firm commented.

Embracing diversity as part of its corporate strategy is reflected in the number of overseas staff employed by the company, which stood at 21 percent in 2012, data from PETRONAS Sustainability Report 2012 unveiled. However, “no ideal target has been set by the Management of PETRONAS” on the hiring ratio for Malaysian versus non-Malaysian staff.

Meanwhile, PETRONAS has indicated that it is “targeting about 40 students [for the POTS program] including the 11 successful applicants” and these students will be offered employment with the company upon graduation.

COMPETITION FOR TALENTS
PETRONAS acknowledged that petroleum companies face intense competition in the search for skilled talents to fill industry vacancies worldwide.

Given its extensive operations globally, PETRONAS’ top management considers POTS a high priority “especially in realizing our vision to be a leading oil and gas multinational of choice. Also in building global talents pipeline for Petronas’ Global Operations,” the firm emphasized.

“One way [for PETRONAS to prepare for the competition in talent search] is through [the] POTS program, in which we trust … could be a good platform to invite capable individuals to join our diversified workforce,” PETRONAS told Rigzone

hampeh petronas. semua nak overseas grads. the likes of low key guys and local grads like me semua x layan. then when those so called talented geniuses lari, mula la hire ex-pat whom dont care a feck about the locals nor the shit about what they are doing.

now I'm unconvinced with the whole program

so to put it bluntly. TDE in drilling contractors should be prepared to dedicate their entire time out on the rig, where as DE in operating company will be sent out to the rig for a short stint for experience and then come back to the office.

gotta think carefully on this. thanks again!

Hi all greetings,

Newbie here..

Been looking around about my issue but couldn't hooked any..would like to ask to all otais here.

"Is there any opportunities that I can grab at oil and gas field if currently I work as an aircraft mechanical and engine technician?
I got the experiences but my highest education level is only SPM and I am not sure if training and apprenticeship in aviation is taken account in education background.
Well the training conducted in company training centre and did issues their certificates which is approved by global aviation regulatory bodies.
I did my job on mechanical parts,engines(which can be consider as rotating parts),hydraulics and little bit electrical and electronic"

Thanks and regards. Appreciate any advice in posting rules but I swear I did search all the versions and did not find any! Hehe

Gss turbine supplier or service company will appreciate your experience.

That means I should head to powerplant facilities. Thanks bro!

ofc la mau overseas grad. kalo grad local sama standard tentulah hire..
bkn kata overseas grad tentu hire, tapi semua mrk tu cgpa gile-gile.

beg to differ. plenty of local grads yg standard lg tinggi. no need to pandang lekeh of our own education system la bro.

im not memperlekehkan our local education system la.. im memperlekehkan the bdk-bdk local.
Bagus la if you're not, or your friends are not but majority cannot even survive our own edu system. You pergi edu fair or other thread mintak kerja. Setakat cgpa 3.0 pun they nak mintak turun-turunkan.

This doesnt apply to all but holds true to my ori post. Not all overseas grads are better than locals but all those that are chosen have a standardized score utk tepati first, like minimum cgpa, what classes, english proficiency, yadayada.
I pun bdk local struggling gak
Retreating to my stone.

make a profile with their career section and apply.thats halliburton opening. plenty of openings there. fire away.

but dont expect to get called asap. some fast some slow and some none at all.
