QUOTE(mohdyakup @ Jan 27 2016, 07:33 PM) Ampelmann awarded a contract by Petra Resources Press Release 27-01-2016 27th of January 2016, Delft – Ampelmann, the global leader in offshore access solutions, has secured its first contract with Petra Resources Sdn Bhd, with end client Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd in Malaysia, to supply safe offshore access services in Sarawak waters during the monsoon period. Stretching from October to February, the monsoon period is renowned for its harsh weather conditions, making conventional offshore transfer methods less safe and efficient. The Ampelmann A-type system compensates all vessel motions, thus providing a stable gangway for transfers, which significantly increases the safety for the workers. Furthermore, Ampelmann’s systems minimize the amount of ‘Vessel Waiting on Weather’ (WOW) days, which results in shorter project duration and lower project costs. The first transfers have been successfully completed in up to 3,0 m significant wave height. Sander Zwanenburg, Business Development Asia-pacific: “We thank Petra Resources and Petronas Carigali for their trust in Ampelmann. We look forward to working together towards a safe and efficient project completion, and continuing to build on our strong relationship.” Goodluck in chasing payment from petra  |

QUOTE(TheReaderReads @ Mar 28 2016, 05:19 PM) Yea a real dilemma... Altho I am happy that I got offered especially with the job insecurities and the likelihood of getting cut this april/may. The thing is I dun hv site construction experience. And construction engineering is usually reinforce concrete. I am a civil engineer graduate. Now in structural engineering in OnG. RC to Steel construction are different plus, in OnG i just design engineer je... Civil engineer doesnt have site experience?  |

QUOTE(TheReaderReads @ Mar 28 2016, 05:34 PM) I dun count internship site experience as anything substantial though Anyway, a civil engineer can go consulting or contractor in construction industry. As a consulting engineer, u dun get site experience until your design stage project is done, then only u go site review on work done. Usually just work in office infront of computer using Reinforced Concrete design software and manual calculations. Once project is done, then got chance to go site just review for few hours if not days or weeks. But usually, you will be given another project task. When I was in construction industry, I have 7 projects given to me just within my 3 months working for the company. Some are new projects. Those that work on site as site engineer. They dun do design. They manage project schedule and etc Before design stage must go site to identify constraints/ obstructions etc. am i right? Yeap site engineer don't do much design, but must have knowledge on how to do setting out , levelling , calculating steel bar tonnage , concrete planning etc. which is more valuable than doing design in office IMO. Anyways this is out of topic already.  sorry This post has been edited by feekle: Mar 28 2016, 05:51 PM |

QUOTE(noruazumi @ Apr 26 2016, 01:16 PM) Haha sorry boss. My bad, I shouldn't generalize. I guess we will have good engineers and bad engineers, same goes with Ir. Honestly, Ir should be stricter. Having Ir shouldn't be considered as "skill upgrade", the requirements only require one to attend trainings (or prove to have attended trainings) and those BEM courses. And one need to spend many hours attending the BEM courses, meaning those who are actually busy doing works at site probably will have some complications to attend them. BEM should consider one's actual working experiences as substitution to the existing requirements. Ir. sounds interesting but..need to attend 'expensive' courses just to renew..oh nvm...can live without it |

QUOTE(plataoplomo @ May 15 2016, 01:04 AM) Hi all. I would like to know what is everyone opinion regarding petroleum (engineering/geoscience) graduate on working on other sector besides oil and gas? For example like banking, lets say I work there for 1-2 years while waiting the economy to improve. I understand that the work experience is irrelevant to the petroleum industry but do you guys think I still have the chances to enter the industry after 1-2 years of working in other than petroleum industry? Or is it the chances are they are more keen to hire fresh graduates lets say when the economy improved? Perhaps any HR here would like to say anything on that? I feel very stuck at this moment as I have been applying for work for almost 6 months already with nothing seems to be certain at this moment. I would say pursuing my masters at this moment is also very unstable cause I am afraid I will be repeating the same situation as this after graduation besides having to accumulate more on my student loans is not in my list of options right now. I really2 wanted to work for the industry but so far the aren't willing to employ fresh graduates. Any opinion on what should I do?  I hope the reply from this thread will be much help to clear the air for other petroleum graduates who are still searching for their path. It is very depressing and saddening that many of them aren't employed at this moment.Not to mention those who already got their vss. What is my best course of actions for now?anybody?I barely able to survive right now cause many companies (other than oil and gas) aren't willing to employ us graduates because they don't understand what we study. Help! Reason behind u took petroleum engineering in the first place? Is it your real interest, persuaded by family or hearing that p.e big salary? |

QUOTE(plataoplomo @ May 15 2016, 12:14 PM) Nahh.Definitely not because of family persuasion. I made the decision on my own. Btw, Im a Geoscience graduate. If talking about interest, after learning the subject for 4 years in Uni, I feel that its hard for me to move on from my own interest. Which means, at this moment, I really don't care about the salary. I just wanted to enter the industry purely due to my interest. I have tried many times indicating my interest and passion to companies, and willing to accept low/cut salary jobs just for the sake me having the opportunity to do what I love. But so far, none of that have been a success. *None of them replied back tho So that been said, you have any opinion or suggestion?It will be so helpful if you can share some of your experience or ideas. Im guessing ur geology student? How about MRT project? They are doing tunnel boring..maybe ur geology knowledge is useful |

QUOTE(plataoplomo @ May 15 2016, 04:25 PM) It seems that they are taking many from civil background. I've tried to apply to several MRT companies but at the moment no repllies yet. One of the reason I can think of they either rather take civil eng backgrounds or geology eng from UKM students. They are probably have more advantages than me cause my geology studies is to focus on O&G. But anyway, thanks! Too focus then susah lor fren...btw all the best... |

KUCHING: Malaysian Phosphate Additives (Sarawak) Sdn Bhd’s (MPAS) proposed RM1.9bil phosphate additives plant in Samalaju Industrial Park, Bintulu, is expected to be commissioned in 2018.
Chairman Datuk Syed Ahmad Alwee Alsree said the project, which would be South-East Asia’s largest integrated phosphate additives complex, would house nine different plants that would produce food, fertiliser and halal feed phosphates.
“The proposed plant is targeted for completion in phases from mid-to-end 2018,” he said at the signing of a power purchase agreement between MPAS and Sarawak Energy Bhd (SEB). SEB will supply 150MW to power the plant.
The signatories for the agreement were SEB group chief executive officer Datuk Torstein Dale Sjotveit and MPAS managing director Lim Lee Wan. Sarawak Chief Minister Tan Sri Adenan Satem witnessed the event.
Malaysian Phosphate Additives Sdn Bhd (via Malaysian Phosphate Ventures Sdn Bhd) and Cahya Mata Sarawak Bhd (through wholly-owned subisidary Samalaju Industries Sdn Bhd) each own a 40% stake in MPAS. The remaining 20% equity is held by Arif Enigma Sdn Bhd, an associate of Tradewinds Plantations group.
Syed Ahmad said on full operation, the plant would produce 500,000 tonnes per annum of phosphate products, ranging from food grade, animal feed and fertilser phosphates, 900,000 tonnes per annum of coke and 100,000 tonnes per annum of ammonia.
Food phosphate is used mainly in crude palm oil refining and in the production of various types of food and beverages, cola fizzy drinks, food source for cakes and noodles while fertiliser phosphate is used in the production of compound fertiliser, nitrogen phosphorous potassium. Halal feed phosphate is used to replace big bones of animals in animal feed.
Syed Ahmad said the technology for the project was developed by Malaysian chemical engineers under the auspices of the Malaysian Technology Development Corp, and that all MPAS shareholders were Malaysian entities.
The project, he said, would strengthen the national food security system.
MPAS’s annual average revenue is estimated at RM2.9bil of which over 80% would be from export income. The plant will provide jobs to some 1,200 people, including engineers and project supervisors.
“This project has a huge downstream potential and will be able to spawn a cluster of no less than 20 different downstream industries for small and medium enterprises,” he said.

QUOTE(mohdyakup @ Jun 1 2016, 08:18 AM) Downstream business still going strong for Amec-FW, particularly for Synthomer Job-5 expansion project, Shell MDS export pipeline extension to jetty, and the incoming MLNG BIG-P. They are also heavily lobbying for the Penapisan Melaka Euro-5 upgrading project too. And since Mukhriz is already ousted from being MB at Kedah, I wonder what happen to the feasibility study which currently in progress for oil refinery project at Gurun - AmecFW got the job. Hope its not being scrapped again. Smds export pipeline mcm delay jer..i recall last year sept suppose to start package 1 of the civil works.. |
