Before I got sacked, I got 1.5 months of bonus which almost the same for the past 10 years.
But with the high oil price, those bonus money are never enough to cover the spending due to high oil price.
With current low oil price, my bonus have balance, first time for all the years.
As long as we still can work in O&G companies, no bonus are not a big deal. I don't want to see in situation such that, I happy but the rest have to cry icon_rolleyes.gif

I only worry about my increment, my company announce due to oil price the increment for staff has been decreased plus  a lot of colleagues proposed to promote by their manager but rejected by senior management.. My manager promised me to submit promotion proposal to management to promote me but i afraid management rejected it due to oil market bad.... cry.gif  cry.gif

For me is different, when i join company they press down my salary, but when i perform well in the first year and my boss wanna promote me, the oil price drop and my chance of getting promote is low doh.gif too bad for me to holding the salary which only ngam ngam to live but cannot save more money.. cry.gif
*
Job group got salary range, and the HR says no increment considering current situation, so they give me the max drool.gif
Again, got pros and cons. Usually for a person that got sacked, the new job's pay will be lower, but mine are slightly higher, so, I just accept only.

Any of you have tips on breathing test for medical checkup?

I have done it last year and passed after like 20+ attempts

I have to do another one soon and feels very anxious about it

Just one last obstacle before offshore life

20 times only passed? That's a record.
Do regular exercise, don't use air cond for too long period of time(too long means > 4 hours daily).
Drink less chemical coffee, junk foods from chain restaurants.

5 times still way too much, proper is twice(to verify first blow are correct)

I'm doing this blow test every year and never go beyond 2 times.

Construction works delayed are normal. You must know who is the contract holder whistling.gif
Also, once the plant are up and running, it can't be simply shutdown. With current low oil price, it may not be a bad thing.

Most refinery here also shut down. Take advange to change DCS system.

I know is it normal for construction to delay

But what keeps malaysian worried is this 1MDB. Petronas wont be interested in bailing out those fellas. RAPID is giving people jobs even in the future.

If petronas is forced to bail 1MDB chances are we wouldnt see RAPID even take off.
*
They won't use Petronas to do bail out, so don't worry too much.
Even if they decided to use petronas, the worst case is they will increase petrol's price. Again, they are looking for trouble by doing so.
Now with low oil price, only India still selling at expensive price.

I really hope they do that. RAPID will have long term prospect both job and growth for the country when oil is falling short in exploration. At least until someone can create a new method of drilling high pressure and deeper depth for Tapis.
But by not taking petronas money, the rakyat suffer a lot through lost of EPF money.
*
Not much refineries in Malaysia will buy Tapis crude and process it. If we are talking Brent of USD60, Tapis crude cost USD75-85 at the same time.
That's another reason why Esso in PD changed to Petron.

maaf bang, actually my point was the oil was running short lately. Building a new mega refinery is the future to sustain the future generations of  malaysian and the rakyat.

Regarding the Tapis oil. Tapis oil is good oil that have low/no sulphur content, thus there is not much need to so refining at all. These kind of oil you can take and pump straight to the car and it will burn well.

So to elaborate further, there is a reserve at Tapis at deep depth(i cant remember, my dad knew there is oil deeper) that petronas till today still cant drilling that bugger right out of that. What exxon found for petronas was just a vein that links to a big reservoir. The french had tried to drill for pertronas to reach that depth, they drilled for 1 month nonestop but failed due to the technology and pressure was too great for the BOP at that time.

Not too sure if anyone had figure out how to solve that problem till today.
*
Oil never been running short, no doubt Malaysian crude are low in sulphur, but because of the price, not much people willing to buy it. Our oil is got price no market, so nobody willing to buy = oil short as stated by government.
Middle East crude are way cheaper than our crude, so most people will build a better sulphur removal plant rather than buy expensive crude.
If the crude got price and market, sure Petronas already buying technology to dig it out.
Our sea are not deep if comparing to other country's oil rigs.
BTW, if you know nuts on Tapis crude, don't simply talk like you are a pro. A crude consist of various impurities, it can't be pump straight to a car. Maybe asking help from wiki will help to prevent you on slapping your face your self doh.gif
The only refinery in Malaysia that still relying on Tapis crude is Petron, go look for a job there and see how they process it.

Malaysia's Petronas Posts 39% Drop in 1Q Profit on Global Oil Slump
KUALA LUMPUR, May 22 (Reuters) – Petroliam Nasional Bhd , Malaysia's state oil company more commonly know as Petronas, reported on Friday a 39 percent drop in quarterly net profit due to a drop in benchmark crude prices.
Net profit was 11.4 billion ringgit ($3.18 billion) for the January-March period, compared to a profit of 18.8 billion ringgit in the same period in 2014, Petronas said.
Revenue for the quarter was 66.2 bln ringgit against 84 bln ringgit in the prior year period.
The company said quarterly profits were impacted by lower revenue due to a 50 percent drop in benchmark crude price, but was helped by higher processed gas trading and better LNG sales volume.
It maintained a projection for crude oil prices to average $55 a barrel in 2015.
Petronas will pay a dividend of 26 billion ringgit to the Malaysian government in 2015, lower than the dividend of 29 billion ringgit it paid in 2014.
Unlisted Petronas is Malaysia's only Fortune 500 company and accounts for most of the government's oil and gas revenue. ($1 = 3.5830 ringgit)

Those office workers does not develop, they are just copy and paste from previous design.
An office worker can show to the boss all sort of rubbish numbers and figures, but as long as front liners does not know what it is and can't operate properly, those numbers will be bullshit basically.

agak2 la tapis no need refining.  doh.gif  still need distillation maa. if you said tapis dont need desalting that is true as salt content of tapis was very low during its initial period around 1990 if im not mistaken lah, but now tapis need desalting as salt content is typical like other light crude.

tapis still being fed to PSR1 and PSR2 refinery in melaka and PPT in terengganu.
*
You need distillation to separate all the fractions required.
Follow by hydro treat it to really remove sulphur to really low level.
Then need reformer/platformer to boost the RON up and mix up with other components to make petro.
Desalting are needed to remove all sort of salts, from organic to inorganic.
For Shell that having LRCC, this is very important as salt is a poison to LRCC's catalyst.
Salt from crude are sometimes they mix the sea water to crude for dilution.
Most of the info can be known by doing a quick search from wiki or the company's website thumbup.gif
Like SMDS GTL plant are using 192+ technology, but still they are the first company to make big scale GTL plant in the world.
