Good day all,i am presently a master student studying GEOPHYSICS in Nigeria with a bsc in Geology gotten over 8 years ago.I had the believe that can land me a good job as soon as i round up with it but not very sure, A total offshore staff told me that the in thing now is certifications eg welding inspection or nebosh cert.Is this true,if YES which is preferable considering my discipline and the most lucrative in the sector .candid advice pls.

Are those the only 2 you are considering?

As a woman, NEBOSH might favor you.

Though CWI jobs may be more than HSE jobs and pay more, HSE jobs seem longer term (not project based).

thanks, more pls

where are the welding ins&ectors in d house and d neboshs,

There's a thread on the Career Board for Drilling Engineers and Supervisors.

You might get your answers there.

[s]There's another thread for HSE Professionals too.[/s]

thanks dear

I meant you should ask there, preferably after reading all the pages.

that guy is a geologist, she may no get a job of DE in operating companies. OP, Prepare very well and look for job as a Geologist. You can start from mud logging or geophysical works, but aim at becoming geologist either at wellsite or in office. You have no business with welding certificate if you intend to be a geologo.
