Well good for you then.  Even though i heard a lot of retrenchment news, yet business is still ongoing. Lets hope for the best.
well thats petronas and yes the ratio is low but they still having non malay right.  If u see Shell,  they are opposite  to petronas.  Non malay is majority there.
*
Actual ratio is 5% only, so PM's slogan of 1Malaysia are more on bullshitting.
If you are talking about Shell HQ, yes, if talking in PD, again, you are wrong.

Which fuel brand is officially selling Euro 4 mogas in the market now?

In terms of sulphur, all petro already Euro4 compliant, just that RVP and distillation are not.
But with the word M behind that means substandard, no need to waste time to make your self happy with same stuff.

yes, from shell insider. I dunno how much petronas will scrutinise though... but then as long that the number is viable i suppose.

and since i am not in shell but was once working for an engineering company in kl, i know that for RAPID project, the said engineering company dun have a big say in who they want to send to work for to work in RAPID.

Petronas hv to view their resume and approve.

Even when workload is low and many charging overheads, the said company still can't use their own overhead staff for that project just bcuz petronas duwan so they have to hire new ppl under petronas approval. So those overhead ppl just help up but not charging to RAPID. just charge overhead.

National Oil Company (NOC) has a big say of what foreigners wanna do with their oil

Actually without petronas, most locals won't have the chance to work in oil n gas. Decades ago, whenever there are oil project here in msia, it was done by the westerners. Until petronas came in and set a rule that if they wanna drill oil from msia, they need local content.

Shell provide expertise in technology and know how, while petronas controls the project and learn from the big international oil companies.
*
There's already Petroleum Law to protect Petronas's interest.
But with current situation, if were to continue on executing white elephant projects, hiring people, only way is to rob from other companies, like MLNG2 is a good example.

Hi otai-otai sekalian.

I would like to ask opinion. I just graduated from UTP  then after that I work in EPC company as a graduate engineer (Project) until May 2015. Unfortunately, because of the current situation I didn't get the chance to become permanent staff.  sweat.gif

until now still searching job. I saw a program from TWI under cidb youth program they offered this program :

1) 3g/6g welding - 2 weeks
2) NDT :
    - Magnetic Particle Testing - 2 weeks
    - Penetrant Testing - 2 weeks
    - Interpretation of Radiographs- 2 weeks
    - Ultrasonic Testing- 2 weeks
3) Blasting & Painting operation- 4 weeks

Which courses should i go to expand my marketability? I don't mind to start from below (even if they offered me under rm 2k i also grab it, because I don't have enough experience) Btw I have degree in Mechanical Engineering and Diploma in Plant Engineering with 6 months experience as a QC inspector and around 11 months in PMT offshore project.

Thank you for the opinion, appreciated it.

Your fact isnt quite right. Local crude is mostly exported. Local crude usage is imported. Melaka mostly handles imported crude.

All contractors (Exxon, Shell, Murphy, Talisman and the likes) who has business in Malaysia will have to go through PETRONAS for approval when they want to do hiring. This is a known fact and has been in place since aeons and aeons ago. Why? Because headcount is cost recoverable. So anything that's cost recoverable, of course PETRONAS needs to know and will need their approval. However, what these people fail to tell you is that PETRONAS has no control over whom you hire. They approve only the headcount but they don't control who should you hire. PETRONAS does not control how many you wish to hire even, you come in and propose and they just approve.
*
Few years back, indeed you are right, headcount only.
But now no more, race comes first with main factor is take Petronas's engineer first.

Bro, don't feed the troll. He's a well known moron in here.

Troll or fact that you guys can't deny is still too early to say.
If Melaka refinery are so superior, then why they don't introduce Euro4 RON95 and have to wait for RAPID to come up only can doh.gif
A crude that contains 0.5%/wt of sulphur already is sour crude. And by feeding 10% of "sour crude" and blend with other sweet crudes also can be considered as "able to process sour crude.
And from that page, petronas already said they are processing both together at the same time, so melaka refinery is a refinery that using old technology are still a fact that you are trying your very best to deny.

Petronas, the Malaysian energy giant with big plans in B.C., faced ‘catastrophic’ safety issues

OTTAWA — Petronas, the Malaysian state-owned global energy giant at the heart of British Columbia’s LNG ambitions, was told in late 2013 that it was dealing with “very serious” safety and integrity issues throughout its offshore Malaysian operations, The Vancouver Sun has learned.

A 732-page internal audit, presented to senior management on Oct. 24 of that year and obtained recently by The Sun, uncovered numerous problems on Petronas oil and gas platforms in the three major oil and gas fields off the Malaysian coast.

Well, is nothing wrong actually, since Petronas are using yesteryear's technology to build a facility.
And the climate in Canada are not same as Malaysia, so bringing such design to other places may have problems.
But, now the oil price are quite low, so maybe is Canada looking flaws from Petronas and to flush them out. People are self fish anyway.

Well, processing Arabian Light which have low sulphur content of 0.3-0.5%/wt still considered as sour crude.
A true modern refinery are able to process Arabian Heavy with 2%/wt of S2 without any problem and yet Euro5 compliant.
Non of the current refineries in Malaysia able to do this.
BTW, just put more effort on understand that statement, again your myth are busted. You shall highlight the "mainly sweet crude" also. But then if your intention are to mislead, sure you will forget about this totally shakehead.gif

The word that the banking industry are using is RIGHTSIZING as shown in yesterday article

Well, any word(from downsize, rightsize, normalizing) can be used to justify slashing manpower. Like MAS is the best this year. Using MAS's name they says only cut 6000 but it seized operation(or can I say close down) on 31st August 23:59:59 and MAB takes over. But only 9000(contract staff I won't include since it may or may not get extension) of permanent staffs. So who is right and who is wrong?
Total manpower cut is 11000, not 6000 and that's 5000 extra.
