Im currently working in national oil n gas company, doing utilities. Despite the oil price fall, my company unit still lunching some new projects. Guess the price fall doesn't hit much on gas n utilities business

Must be CUF. Perhaps the price fall only hit the upstream business. Most downstream subsidiary (except refinery), e.g petchem will benefit from current scenario as they bought at low price and sell at standard/market/high price.

Hi

Congrats on your new baby!  thumbup.gif

BTW there are no 'professional' engineers in the O & G industry. Heck! they don't even bother to register with the Institutions and Board!
There is no O&G section in the Institution of engineers. They are just not bothered.
So essentially most so called engineers here are mercenaries, not professionals. Many are very poor at their so called profession.
But that's just the industry.

Im not fully agree with your statement. I believe on the consultant side, most of them require their engineers to be registered with the board.
I dont have the statistics but having work in both manufacturing and oil and gas industry, I feel very secure in OnG compared to manufacturing.
The safety aspects must be followed religiously or else you will be punished. Although it is not uniform across the industry, e.g petronas has their own standard (Zeto rules), petrofac (CoW) got their own, shell, etc etc but their goal is always to make the workplace safe.

p.s Im not SHO. I hate them. They cause me so much trouble at site laugh.gif . But their intention is noble. They want everyone come to work and going home safely. So I have to thank them icon_rolleyes.gif

Do you know there are 2 registration bodies for engineers/

The BEM and the IEM where the former is required to practice.
Here you are going on about workplace safety rather than engineering safety.  biggrin.gif

Perhaps the best way is to know: How many O & G engineers are registered Professional Engineers with IR ?  biggrin.gif

Haha yeah sorry I misinterpreted. So back to discussion. Engineering safety. So, anyone can pinpoint the statistics?
Me not even graduate engineer. I involved in electrical so normally the drawing at least has the .Ir stamp. ..Other than that I have no idea.
