dober: Kudos to you all.A lots of Nurses works in the O and G company. if you can obtain Red cross Certificate. then you can just apply as a first Aider. there you can be fortunate to be selected among the contractors nurses to be trained by the Coy. from there your good to go. though the selection is mostly done base on your performances. if you can corroborate with your HSE officer to have a good audit on your daily work injury/accident report matrix and your able to meet the company target by having an injury free site. so I will advice you to start applying to the contractors first rather than the main company. have a nice day. |

Mister Dan: I just wanted to ask the best place to do your HSE program which is most relevant to the petroleum Industry....Try KARIMISCO. google it. I might have mis spelt the name. they are international certified. |
Re: Oil Workers Zone. by Nobody: 8:33pm On Nov 06, 2013 |
bluuu:It's better to have a masters than to gather certifications, especially as a petroleum engineer. Certifications are highly overrated. Yea, internship counts. Package your 6 months experience well. Sometimes, what makes the difference is how well you are able to market yourself. 1st class and 2.1? With any, you will always have chances to prove yourself. Don't bother about differences. Even with a first class, you will still need to prove yourself. Cheers 1 Like |

having taken some O and G tests and interviews, i can boldly say you just have to be very very very good before you can secure a spot in the oil and gas sector. the sector is very very competitive... i dont think getting additional qualifications would give you an edge(i might be wrong), instead work experience especially directly in an oil and gas setup or any oil and gas related coy. the three ways of penetrating the sector are: 1. the man know man. 2. through trainee programs (u must have a good result 2.1 or upper credit, be smart enough to pass their very tricky and difficult tests and interviews) 3. getting in as an experience hire, which requires you to have a superb practical knowledge and a good number of years of experience. everyone wants to work in an oil and gas firm, but the truth be told..... that sector has a little to do with that first class of yours. you've got to be extra smart. 2 Likes |

As a graduate with a masters without experience it sometimes places you on the same level with a first degree only holder. The only situation it would give you an edge is when u are as smart as the other party. In a case where the other party is smarter than you are . It would be hard securing a position . |

scantee: Hello Guys! Lets share our exprience in our respective companies, the challanges we face, the good tidings of each companies and compare it with each. The main reasons i'm doing this here, is because i got loads of mail from Nairalanders, asking me to give them crew about all this companies concerning the post i made some time ago.. Hi man, you've done a good thing by creating this thread. I am a graduate of Computer Science currently in my service year and would love to know the possibility of me getting into the oil&gas sector... Even if itz based on contract. Can a computer scientist work offshore? What certification do I need ? Your response would be highly appreciated |

Your response would be highly appreciated your welcome bro, well I study computer science as well, though not working offshore, but if really you want to work offshore I think you should go through this thread again from page 1 am sure you will get to read where folks mentioned about marine related certification more especially HSE, Swimming certification, as an IT person you can as well do Fiber optic submarine cable connection training. Base on contract staff you mentioned I wil advice you join sub-contractors company first to get the insight on how to go about being a contractor. but if you own a company already I can guide you through on how to register with SPDC and start bidding for contracts. |

ebixy: please am having difficulty in accessing my reference number on the portal. Can't find where its located. I guess it supposed to be send to your email address after successful completion of your application, if you did not receive it, simple means your application is not successful, check your mail to comfirm. have a nice day |
Re: Oil Workers Zone. by doziej84: 12:01pm On Aug 27, 2014 |
@scantee, i wrote a shell test online last year, passed, but was never called for recruitment day. i think early this year, it went from pending to application rejected. can you give me an analysis on what may be the issue here. Also, is it still possible to apply again this yr and send you the reference number you're talking about. thanks. |
Re: Oil Workers Zone. by scantee(m): 12:19pm On Aug 27, 2014 |
doziej84: check if the contents of your CV go against your assessment stage, E.g in your CV you claim to be this and that but in your assessment stage your answering different thing that does not tally with your CV. your free to re-apply after one year, I don't think you need to send me your Ref number because I am not working with SPDC/Admin department, so I can't have any influence about it, people I asked for Ref have a different problem am only assisting them to sort out nothing more. just apply and keep believing in God. thanks |
