according to the news, it is for petronas workers intending to work in Sarawak.
However real case on the ground is that all non sarawakian involved in oil and gas (that means contractors, specialized vendors, etc) work permits are being on hold. That's the info I am getting from our agents, people on the ground.

as this involves vendors and contractors, the impact will be big.

So guys, is this permit issue still ongoing? When it goijg to end?

Is there any exemption given?

I just wonder how companies handle this if the personnel needs to go to facilities in Sarawak water?
Or the one that on regular rotation to platform or rig over there.

no changes so far. Monitoring the situation as applicable to all o&G not just PCSB

Different to what happend in the country that I'm working now. If there is a local people qualified for that position, no permit granted for expat. So to encounter that we now have "Chief of Offshore Operations Support" which is a storekeeper, "Heavy Lift Specialist" which is crane operator, "Deepwater Drilling Specialist" which is Assistant Driller..

And that's what recommended by the local agent.

here it is a blackout freeze. Does not matter what position you mentioned its halted.

Then Petronas really will have to berperang dengan Sarawak because even for a deployment from Labuan, Petronas policy itself requires you to have WP.

So first, we need to deploy from Labuan, then second we need to get a waiver from Petronas with regards to the requirement of WP

Yes, losing respect with Satem. Seriously short sighted and basically bakar kelambu sendiri.

yes that's true. This is even before considering insurance coverage without WP (can get tricky), medevac planning, etc.
And I am from Sarawak, now managing this mess.

I guess the work permit freeze will affect every one from Malaya and in ALL industries?

So, the Borneo hiway project, will it be affected also?

I know that Ranhill Civil is JVying with Sarawak companies to carry out the hiway project.

strictly oil and gas, not limited to petronas but all operators, contractors, vendors, etc

chill out guys.
I'm Sarawakian. Working with West Malaysians and also international clients.
Our offshore team is mixed. Let's work together.

If price goes down further you and I will have cheaper foreign workers working with us offshore. Imagine that. Actually, just start to look at some local yards.

When politicians do stuff like these, it sparks feelings, but look around you, its not making anything better.

A Malaysian oil tanker carrying 900,000 litres of diesel has been hijacked and taken to Indonesian waters, Malaysian maritime officials say.
The MT Vier Harmoni was reportedly sailing from Tanjung Pelepas port in Malaysia on Monday when it was seized.
The Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA)'s director tweeted that the ship was now believed to be off the Indonesian island of Batam.
Its cargo is reportedly worth about 1.57m ringgit ($392,795; £300,000).
The identity of the hijackers is not yet known.

Another 5 months to go for the probation period. Should be okay lah tu.

As for the level of England, yes surprisingly, even during normal conversation, people speak england heheheh. Tapi bila buat report, adusss. My cikgu grammar phase will appear. Especially true with drilling. They are so used to speak in shortform, dalam report pun macam tu. Habis merah aku betulkan.

I thought it only happens on the contractor end. I realized my english has gone down the drain after joining this industry.

At least four people died and two are missing after a helicopter bound for a Chevron offshore platform in Angola crashed, Reuters has reported.

According to the news agency, the helicopter was en route to the Chevron-operated Tombua-Landana platform, offshore Cabinda, Angola, when it crashed.

The California-based oil company told Reuters that five passengers and a pilot were in the helicopter. Search and rescue operation is underway for the two people missing.

Angola’s Angonoticias reports that all the six people have died; two expatriates and four Angolans. The website also says the helicopter went down in bad weather.

In a statement sent to Offshore Energy Today, a Chevron spokesperson said: “A helicopter operated by Heli-Malongo departed the Malongo Terminal, in Cabinda province, Monday, September 26, 2016, at 15:23 and was en-route to the Tombua-Landana offshore facilities.

“The helicopter did not reach its intended destination. It was carrying five passengers and one pilot. One of the passengers is a CABGOC employee; four of the passengers are contractors providing services to CABGOC.

“Search and rescue operations have been mobilized; currently, there are 19 marine vessels and three helicopters involved in the efforts.

“The search and rescue team has located the remains of four personnel. Extensive search and rescue activities continue for those who remain missing.”

The Tombua-Landana field started oil production in September 2009. The field is located in Block 14, 50 miles (80 kilometers) offshore Angola.

So it will compete with existing accommodation barge we have here and usually use. I think, instead of hiring a jackup rig, this service jackup will be more benefit as she has more deck space and accommodation.
*
a few years back we did toy around with this idea as an alternative for a project instead of using barge. Reason is because of the location to the platform and the upcoming bad weather.
