AM an undergraduate of one of the federal universities, specifically from the department of geology.for the past few days i have been pondering,wondering and slowly drowning in a storm of my own thoughts...i feel a sudden awakening in my heart that is broadening my awareness,choking my mind with so much uncertainty and strangling my brain for any possible way out.
am caught in a kind of dilemma concerning my career. am honestly confused! this may sound like putting the cart before the horse ....but my sincere nairalanders, am confused about the part along which i would further my career, as i said earlier, i will soon be a graduate of geology and by Gods timely intervention i will be graduating with a (2.1) but i have been having some problems pertaining the particular field i will do my masters. i know its a thing of choice but i honestly wish to land a job in the nearest future that will cater for me and my loved ones. i simply have a likeness for virtually all the branches of geology and hopefully would perform well in any given field by Gods grace. but my question is, what branch would probably land me in the oil sector in the nearest future. please no sarcasm, i will humbly wish to get advice from matured geologists or those in the oil sector. thanks as i await your replies.

Emmy,

Please don't feel discouraged. Go ahead and plan towards working on your Masters in Petroleum Geology or Sedimentology. If you like Physics, you can do Geophysics.

I will only advise you to try as much as possible to do this in the US. You will get some good geology schools who will give you a scholarship with your 2:1. This comes usually in the form of free tuition and monthly stipend.

I wish you all the best.

Just as you rightly said, you are putting the cart before the horse.
First thing first, make sure you graduate with a good grade (minimum of 2.1).
I am a geologist in the Oil and Gas Sector and must confess that it is one of the most rewarding Oil and Gas careers.
Attempt at getting a Job with ur 1st Degree. Your company's operations and ur job function will help show u a path-way.

I had a B.Sc in Geology and M.Sc in Petroleum Economics though I currently work as a Geophysicist.

Identify the various aspect Q̸̮̮̃f geology n choose the one dat best fits ur interest n go 4 it in ur masters. All aspects are relevant in the oil industry but one thing remains dat U̶̲̥̅̊ must make a 2.1 in ur first degree.
