Career in geophysics

Getting through school can be difficult especially when it is a course in the geosciences. The school is the other factor because the lecturers can so frustrate that you wont want to practise. Getting on this forum has given me a fresh perspective on a career in geosciences and i'm indeed grateful to imag5 for this insight. I mean back in oau, we never had all this insights. Thanks again

yeah school is tough,most of them don't know what they taught,ability to move on it is wat that matters....gracias

Yeah, right! That's why most people often go one on one lecture after school so as to get a better view of the course they studied. Besides, that's why self-development is the best tool you could ever do on yourself.

love this mindset

Nigerian schools are so difficult to tackle except for the brave.


P.S: I sent you a message on whatsapp. A friend needs orientation and he too is a geophysics graduate. Once he tells you 2sexy directed him to you, kindly help out. Good thing is that he is currently in PH as a corper.

God bless. Together we shall succeed.

its very much possible but you have to be ready to pay the price and which school is that?

imag5: Strictly for Geophysicst,Geologist,petroleum engineers, lets discuss the future.....in terms of career development,job prospect,also will be discussing about various oil and gas activities in Nigeria.....any way let me start by introducing myself,my name is imagwe marcus,a graduate of geophysics......all contributions are welcome..the future belongs to those that are well prepared for it thanks and GOd bless.

what about gas engineer gas is the future too!

Omieye22: what about gas engineer gas is the future too!

you are welcomed on board Gas is the future.....we recognized you

Hahahahaha, that's what people say, what do you say to yourself "yes I can make it" like peak milk will say "its in you" for me even though I have good results, still felt I would have done better, my advise for you now is focus from day 1, every second counts. pls which school?

lol oil and gas courses are expensive, when you will be earning blood money you forget the money you use in training...

Hello guys,I found dis thread worth millions of dollar in value hw? A man once told m that 'in life u nid to stand on d shoulder of those that have been there to c far ahead of them' you guys r building d next generation expert and by d way u r mentoring upcoming ones,I salute u oo
My issue is dis am a Soil science and land management student about to enta final year if not 4 strike my supervisor has not show up cos of ASUU strike,what I want to do is get a good project topic cos my supervisor major in geology and pedology which I knw u Guys help in one way or d other....

Happy weekend.....2 every1 in this BIG geoscience family! The future is bright...but you need to acquire the neccessary skills to make it clearer!

still remember last year when my friend got a job in shell, graduate trainee Geophysicist, the first money that entered his account he posted on Facebook "blood money", many people didn't understand what he meant but I did.

Hello guys, I'm studying electrical and electronics engineering in PTI, Effurun. I want to work in the oil company, which course would u advise me study in my masters for better job prospects? Will foreign universities accept HND to do masters? Urgent answers needed. Thks

No be small blood money.......the issue is those who have spent 30 to 40 yrs there still want to stay there and die inside...they dont want to give room for the younger generation. ......I have a target thats 15yrs max in the O&G industry after that I wiuld resign and face my energy services and shipping firm.

Instrumentation and controls engineering.... Is the way forward man

Good morning house,hope u are winning,remember it not over until you win..have a bless weekend,agenda of the week,list the software you can use in geophysics and petroleum engineering, andi will be teaching some guys how to you use Petrel thanks......contact if you wanna learn petrel 101

Learn how to use a drawing software (CorelDraw or Adobe Illustrator) in addition to updating your PowerPoint skills. These you can get easily online or from a friend

Welcome

Saryea83: @2sexy, am the guy!

I am a PTI product. Welcome on board, bro.

Well, all schools in US accept our HND and you would be offered Master Program direct without PGD.
All you have to do is convert your diploma degree to their standard over there in the US.

There are organisations that provide this service. Wes.org is the most recognised among US school. Just send your transcript and they will do the convertion which comprises of both OND and HND individual semester exams.


Good luck.

What kind of skills, technical or non-technica, should fresh graduates obtain?

Please list them cos sometimes when you talk about skills, people find it difficult and this is highly required in today's world.

so many bro it depends on your area of interest you must have passion first

In case of Crude Oil Production Operation

Oil Well Drilling


Geology/ Geophysics


Wireline


etc.

If you can sort them out accord respectively, I will really appreciate.

Been looking out for this since the beginning of this thread.
I m already a graduate of EEE Bm(B.Eng). What r my chances?
