Let's be honest here, there's no other jobs in oilfield that pays you RM30,000 - 40,000 for 3 days worth of work.
Even well control specialists doesn't earn that much money.
Downside is, you must be able to work straight up 72hrs (min) without any rest in between and able to handle your subordinates and superiors well. Those above you and below you. I have seen engineers sleep in the dog house or on the floor for that matter.
Make no mistake about it, life is tough in wireline logging and even the SCHOOL training is no honeymoon. Failure rate is 50%(my time) and many candidates failed at this hurdle or quit after the school.
Totally agree with you on the working hours i.e non-sleep. But that also applies to the petrophysicist in town looking at logging ops especially during MDT.Even well control specialists doesn't earn that much money.
