Pipeline Vs Subsea Engineering
« on: May 27, 2009, 03:01 AM »

Dear Nlanders

I applied for an Msc in Pipeline engineering (newcastle uni) and an Msc in Subsea engineering (Strathclyde uni). My heart is inclined to the pipeline course but since my application, I'm still yet to hear from newcastle.
On the other hand, I have been offered admission for the Subsea course.
 
I hav an idea of d prospects of pipeline engineering, but i'm not too sure of subsea engineering. . . Please i need quick advice on the Job prospects of these courses here at home cos i still this have this strong feeling that i should wait for my first choice, but I'm afraid that time is running out.

Contributions from anyone with experience in these fields would be highly appreciated.
 
Thanks

   @poster,

   I won't say i'm an expert on this. But these are my thoughts.

   Subsea engineering has prospects as much or even more than pipeline engineering, though the main job of a subsea engr. is to work on field developments where the production facilities are to be located on the seabed. Either planning at the main office or being on field. Just work hard, attend career fairs b4 the end of your masters and u could land jobs with major operators or service companies like FMC. Moreover, there are not too many subsea engineers in the world, it's kinda specialized. N u know, so many deep offshore projects are in their developmental stage.

   If i had a choice and sponsorship, I'll choose subsea over pipeline engr. All d best.
