as'salammualaikum ...I just wondering could anyone guide me a bit on my path.
I’m a graduate in mechanical engineering at Universiti Malaysia Pahang, after I graduated, I got my job here at sapurakencana petroleum (lumut) as graduate engineer in yard development department (which is more to civil engineering), I really want to jump to the projects department (PMD, even engineering department) but seems my manager won’t release me as I’m the only engineer left in this department. Do you have any advice to me on what I should I do? Should I stay and waits or it is already time I need to jump to other place?

Mine I dunno what to learn also
The work they give me mainly to help support marketing team, which is really not exactly that technical
Anyone can do it, even an engineering intern

Initially i thought I'd give this 1 year la, but now almost 5 months pun rasa cam no point already

That's why I want out, started looking for jobs.
I don't wanna wait too long, later too old pulak

Gaji kena potong pun okay la, as long as I get to learn and be involved technically.

Actually what does field engineer do at offshore? Did they do the same work as technician etc? Jz the salary is different, isn't it?

hi.. just wanna ask if anyone know company name MCS subsea solutiuons?

Dear All O&G seniors here,

I  am graduated under mechanical engineering and currently as a graduate engineer in SKPB fabrication yard in lumut. I have been here almost 1 year. Currently I am facing a dilemma. Please I need some advice from Seniors here.

Currently I am under project management piping preservation department doing LNG project, but my job scope somehow is too specific on one tasks, due to the project is very big and they requires specific personnel to focus specific task. and the task is very simple and the is too under load. i find it boring and limiting me from exposing to others disciplines. Even though I can personally learn from other disciplines, but without the job responsibilities on them I am lack of motivation to do so. I used to talk to my manager about my issue. he said he cant help much since this is client requirement. I only can have chance to work on new things after the project end, which is about 1 more year to go.

Then I got a new job offer. it is a sub-con grade of company, working on gas metering. they offer me mechanical engineer position, doing typical mechanical engineering job, job scope briefly as below:
  Support the Project & Engineering Team on all the Mechanical related work.
  Generate and verify mechanical BOM at both tender stage and project execution.
  Perform mechanical parts and materials sourcing.
  Perform fabrication inspection, site installation, pre-commissioning, commissioning and field troubleshooting.
  Liaise, coordinate and monitor with fabricators on assigned projects.
  Execute other assigned activities when needed.
  Ensure that general safety and health requirements for both clients and company are observed.

from salary wise, both of them are exactly same. Since I had the interview in the new company without a full one year of experience, I did not have much credit to bargain on the salary. but I am moving bac to KL area (where i am from) an this will cause me having slightly higher daily expenses. But I will try to bargain when complete my probation.

I can't decide whether i should stay in SKPB to gain more 'relaxing' experience or proceed to the new company.
In prospect wise, I heard LNG will b quite the future trend, but I am not sure my relaxing job scope right now is helpful for my future or not. for the new job, i am not sure gas metering has good prospect or not.

Additional comparision:
benefits if i choose to stay:
- low living cost + earn abit more from OT = save more money
- no traffic jam
- colleague here i have no issue with them (whoever i meet here is nice)

benefits if i choose to go:
- stay with family
- physically more comfortable working environment

FYI, SKPB fab yard in lumut is cutting cost as well due to low oil price, quite a number of contract based staffs cant get contract renewal recently. and i am contract based too and my 1 year contract is going to be end in coming march. the new company offering me permanent position, 90% of the staffs are chinese.

I hope seniors can give me some advise on my decision. if you are me, how would you choose? why?
Thank you for reading my post and your opinion.
