yes, the company is the lowest paying consultant amongst the oil&gas consultants. i doubt they can retain good engineers that long with the pay scheme they have now.

Another one MMC.
They reduced salary for long time. There was a townhall 1 or 2 weeks back by the CEO. She mentioned, just hope for the best and no mention on restarting original salary.
Meanwhile, their IT and Finance managers left (Finance one after the other).
These positions are now open for hire on Linkedin, if anyone is interested.

Hi guys,

I am from vendor side, and i have been doing field service work through out my career life of almost 10 years.

This lately i browse through jobstreet and linkedin to find new opportunity but i see for consultant companies, they prefer those who have design experience and for client roles, i guess they prefer candidates from similar role.

Anyone stuck like me, trying to get out from field work? What is the best course for someone like me?

Vendor field service rep for what kind of equipment? Drilling or rotating, mechanical? Onshore / Offshore?

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.

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

Is it salary motivating your change or job scope?

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

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).

Especially in Brazil.. Seem like Petrobras made a good investment, put a purchase order during downtime, and production during oil in demand..  rclxms.gif

But in Malaysia, Limbayxxg FPSO already been rebid few time since 3 years ago..  hmm.gif

What's the prospect for someone with a T&I background here in Msia?
*
Not as good as it used to be.

1. The biggest T&I company that's from Malaysia is doing very badly currently.
2. Saipem, which had a small office in Malaysia mainly focus on T&I and offshore bids closed their office in October few month back.

You may try:

1. Mcdermott (KL office - executing few EPCI projects currently)
2. TechnipFMC (Subsea pipeline - flexible and production system) - Limbayong project.
3. Subsea 7 (Subsea pipeline - rigid).
4. Technip Energies (KL office for EPCI platform / jackets).

KUALA LUMPUR (March 18): Financially-troubled Sapura Energy Bhd saw its net loss in the fourth quarter ended Jan 31, 2022 (4QFY22) widen to a staggering RM6.61 billion compared to a loss of RM216.03 million a year prior, largely due to impairment on goodwill worth RM3.29 billion and impairment on property, plant and equipment worth RM2.1 billion.

Losses per share swelled further to 41.4 sen from 1.35 sen previously.

In a Bursa Malaysia filing on Friday (March 18), the oil and gas (O&G) service provider said its quarterly revenue dropped significantly by 68.61% to RM453.14 million from RM1.44 billion in the previous year, primarily due to lower percentage of completion recognised in the current quarter resulting from recognition of foreseeable losses and higher project costs in the engineering and construction (E&C) business segment.

For the full year ended on Jan 31 (FY22), the group recorded a net loss to the tune of RM8.9 billion — its highest ever — from a net loss of RM160.87 million in the prior year as it realised impairment on goodwill and property, plant and equipment worth RM5.39 billion collectively.

Meanwhile, annual revenue fell by 22.84% to RM4.13 billion from RM5.35 billion in FY21 due to lower contribution from its E&C, and operation and maintenance (O&M) segments.

On a quarterly basis, the group’s net loss widened from a loss of RM669.34 million reported in the immediate preceding quarter (3QFY22) while revenue dropped significantly from RM1.45 billion.

“While the market recovery in the latter part of the year has brought improved performance from our drilling segment, our E&C and O&M businesses continued to face execution challenges mainly due to disruption from Covid-19 and lack of access to adequate working capital facilities.

“Our situation was further compounded by some operational underperformance in certain project,” it shared.

Agreed
this is more for the contractor side including drilling and T&I.

I think the Sapura case had gone out of control.

Initially maybe PNB would still wanna save them but now that things have gone everywhere, news is everywhere, and too much political parties starting to get involved in this. Too risky for PNB to give lifeline now..

SapuraOMV should not be affected but i am wondering if Sapura Drilling will. Payment from their drilling division is quite on time and no outstanding issue so far unlike other Sapura..

The "real" situation among their staff is even more dire. Even if there's govt bailout by current govt / former PM, the reputation amongst its workers and vendors are gone.
Many vendors are struggling for prolonged periods and some are spending more money on legal advise (Some companies are less than 30 employees).
