Michaelemry: What of someone that study quantity survey or survey and geoinformatics dont they have job in the oil sectorbro...this are different fields i. e QS and geomatics. QS: cost estimator, usually in construction. Geoinformatics/geomatics: land survey and mapping, this is currently in high demand in the oil sands ,Alberta, Canada. I don't know for how long the demand would be sustained. |

Syenite: I agree with you that one should not only depend on divine favour and connection to people, and my posting did not suggest that either exclusively. Doing that will smack laziness whereas God wants to bless our efforts. Those cases of persons I mentioned are not mere fabrication but part of the reality on ground in same sector. So all considerations are very important. Surprisingly none of these persons has ever said he/she was taken by his/her company by virtue of his/her expertise. They always give the story of their recruitment and selection amongst others as if there is divine intonation to it. Nevertheless, I will still opine that it may not be correct to say GOD CANNOT FAVOUR EVERYBODY. Rather we can conveniently say GOD WILL NOT FAVOUR EVERYONE just as everybody does not necessarily have connection to Oil and Gas sector; unless we are doubting or arguing His ability here. |

Amhappy:People mostly start with the wrong question - Asking about certifications! Being a technical safety / loss prevention engineer is not about certifications. It is more about experience. One needs to have indepth understanding of oil / gas processes and facilities, design and safety engineering philosophies. It takes years of experience to acquire, and it involves a lot of personal studies and diligence. Like I said, don't feel overwhelmed. The easiest way to kick start your career in that line is to start first as a facilities, I & E, process or machinery engineering. With a good engineering degree, you can get entry level positions in the fields. Sometimes, you can be lucky to be employed directly as a trainee safety engineer. Some universities abroad offer safety engineering, though it is preferably for one to first gain basic engineering experience (not necessarily as a safety engineer) in the oil and gas before going for such an MSc in safety engineering. There are certifications along the way but it will be meaningless to you without basic engineering experience. And certifications are not compulsory anyway. Companies generally value experience over certifications. Read this comment below on the thread: Insanity: 3 Likes |

dannisexy:With a degree in Applied Geophysics, I will rather advise you to go for a Masters (look for scholarship opportunities). Geoscientists have better opportunities with a Masters or even PhD. Companies like Exxon or Total won't even consider you if you don't have Masters. Chevron's is open to BSc but that they seem to be more disposed to candidates with MSc from good schools. Shell is also open to all, but even then prefer experienced hires with higher degrees. I can remember an experienced geophysicist friend of mine (works in National Geological Agency or so)who went for an interview for the position of experienced geophysicist. He has an MSc in geophysics. He didn't pass the interview but the panel members told him that they would have strongly considered him for employment if he had a PhD. He is presently on his PhD programme in Geophysics. Many firms prefer to employ geoscientists at Masters level. So I will advise you to enroll for MSc in Geophysics in a reputable school while you keep searching for good jobs. Keep both option open. Syenite: 1 Like |

gudrated:With the Exception of Mobil which prefers an M.Sc in Geosciences, most other Oil firms like: Total, NNPC, DPR, Shell, Chevron, NLNG, Sinopec and servicing firms like Schlumberger, Baker, PDL, Halliburton, Weatherford etc only need ur B.sc. If u have an M.sc fine. Jst know that employment at entry level is age bound. If u chase an M.Sc and pass d employable age limit, too bad. However, if u graduated with less than 2:1 & feel an M.sc will give u a better chance, all good. BUT KNOW THAT A FIRST DEGREE ALONE CAN BREAK U INTO THE OIL AND GAS SECTOR. 2 Likes |
