Hye all! I'm new here and I'm going to report duty at Petronas KLCC on this coming 1st April. I just want to ask, whether anyone here knows about the jobscope of petroleum economics, as I got the offer in that field. Thanks in advance! smile.gif

Petroleum Economics is fun smile.gif

You need to know the details of the PSC arrangements and then you need to know how much oil/gas that the field will produce and then you need to come up with the IRR after taking into account the CAPEX and OPEX and see if you can get over the hurdle rate. You also will have to look at the matrix in terms of which portfolio the company should pursue and which one they should drop based on all the analysis I mentioned previously. I'm a geologist but I find Petroleum Economics fascinating ....

I remembered it being separated from the PE Skill group previously or maybe it was just the unit in PCSB that was separated. I would suspect that it will be under SG-10 so you should be in Tier 1 (if they still have that tier thingamagic), I've heard of a lot of policy changes lately that is causing some distress amongst staff.

Oh okay, thanks for the info. I have seen petroleum economics is bound under petroleum engineering in discoverpetronas.com. So, I'm wondering whether petroleum economics is as the same level as other petroleum engineering field such as reservoir, drilling and others, because petroleum economics is not as critical as those other fields in PE.

heard from my PE senior, most of the petroleum economics are PE since we have a few subject relate to those..but then, congrate and good luck to you! thumbup.gif

The position of petroleum economics can be filled by those who took PE, ME, EE and CE, since they took Engineering Economics subject. I guess PE students are most likely to be assigned with more critical field like reservoir and drilling smile.gif
