Rotating. Both also got.

Now im kinda stuck in this environment. Hard to move around to other. The only thing i can do and did before is to jump across the oem companies.

Might be you try to join a Consultant / Contractor such as MCDermott , Technip or Aker as a rotating engineer.
Sell yourself with experience in on site / offshore start up / troubleshooting and use that to your advantage.

Example: Become a rotating engineer in a company specializing in turbines / etc.

How about that?
use your contacts from the consultants that you know to get an interview.

Ok sounds possible. But hardly i see consultant got this kind of role. Normally i see its like core engineering field; mechanical, electrical, etc. But i will try to find around.

Most of my contacts from consultant are from mechanical, electrical or process engineer who do design.

T7 quite genuine.. I have a friend who have been stationed at China for their MOPU Project..

To be out from OEM environment, its require you to be professional that able to provide engineering details/technical details.. I believe most of the the time, you just conveys the details that OEM provided to you to Client.

You may start with Package Engineer (Rotating Equipment) for Main Contractor or Client.. This position its quite demanding for EPCC project. To be Package Engineer, you should well verse on Equipment (Engineering & Technical, Commissioning, Ops & etc), Project Plan and Procurement. Wish you all the best.

As i mentioned above, to be a engineering professional such as Rotating Engineer, its require you to able to provide engineering details/technical details and interpreted manufacturer rotating equipment details design.. what is your education background? Most of the rotating engineer come from Mechanical.. but for start, you can be a package engineer (rotating equipment)..

I am from electrical background doing i&c and commissioning of the turbine. Yep, most of turbine detailed engineering (blade design, casing design, thermo calculation) are based in headquarters in oversea. Local offices are just for sale and services.

I have dealt with package engineer from consultant before. I doubt they know the detailed engineering as well, but more on the surface for the overall process. Since im into my equipment only, i also lack knowledge on plant process.

Yup.. Package Engineer will not require to go deep on details design/engineering.. on the surface is required, so that is why I advise you to start from there..

are you in Compressor or Turbine Generator or power gen contractor?

any idea why Sarawak Work Permit (SWP) becomes more difficult, almost cannot get approval since this year. Few project engineers, crew cant mob due to this SWP

Im in compressor and gas turbine vendor.

Hopefully can find the role and experience new environment.

How about switching to control vendor like emerson or honeywell?
Then try moving from there?

Is it salary motivating your change or job scope?

Normally pure control vendor, their salary range is a bit too low.

I think its more of job scope and environment. I dont have any complain on salary part.

When there is opening for Package Engineer (Rotating) of FPSO/MOPU/CPP, you can try to apply.. most of the time you need take care of Compressor and Gas Turbine Package.. wish you all the best

Thanks for the support. Will try my best and out of my comfort zone.

MISC was hiring many of these roles.
For now, you may try at SBM also for MERO4.

Heard SBM sub all Mero 4 topside engineering work to its Mumbai office.

This is PMT role. Should be in KL, similar also with Proc and Delivery roles.

They own / partly own the Indian office.
Its in bangalore.

Petronas has reversed its 2020 blip with a convincing Profit After Tax of RM48.6 billion for financial 2021, achieved on the back of RM248 billion in revenue.

Bonus.. Bonus... Bonus..

My source in SBM told me KL office wasn’t doing the Mero4 topsides engineering. But this was a month ago. Maybe SBM changed plan.

Not the engineering but the PMT / execution is done here (PMT / Procurement / home offices).
