@ Dr ferlie, Doc, i will be making a trip to P.H by sunday on the mud school stuff, i will tell you the outcome ! I will also like to visit transocean technical school. Thanks for the connection @ Elchux, sorry for replying you late,i just saw it now, i have been checking this tread for a while now,i dont know why i have not seen it before. I don't know the city you are now,i will advice you to find out where you can source for a real trader who will be willingly to teach you for months,that was how i learn, i did not go for any fucking seminar on it for once, those guys offering seminars does not know it, if you are a real forex trader, you woulnt have time for seminar, you will be using that sat. and sunday free trade day for rest. |

To Dr. Ferlie & Mr. Shinatu many thanks to you, for helping the needy in this regard, May your efforts be crowned with great rewards. Amen and to others who have given their input too to making this thread worth-while thanks a bunch. @ Dr. Ferlie and Mr. Shinatu, Pls what chances do graduates of International Relations have in the Oil & Gas Industry? |

I have posted twice in this trend, but can not see it! Why? anyway, @elchux, pls look for where you will get a real forex trader that will teach you one on one around your city,don't go for any seminar, does guys doesn't know any shit.

Nice trend you've got here. I would appreciate any contact to a mud engineering company. I got the fluid engineering training from Oklahoma mud school, OK, USA last year and also have more than seven years experience as a SLS data engineer but could not land a job as a mud engineer. I will appreciate getting someone to link me. Thanks. |

kvolander: Kvolander, The driller will also have to deal with these uncertainties you know?, let me leave Dr F to give insight into how chalenging drilling can be, someone already mentioned the great technicalities involved in Directional drilling . I do not know much about the IWCF certification. You can work in the Exploration,Appraisal and Development stage of oil and gas production as any of the PE functions i.e Petrophysicist- Aquisition and interpretation of logs(NMR,GR,Res,Sonic etc). Res Engineer- Reservoir modellling thru Material balance-characterisation of Reservoir i.e drive mechanism, Fluid composition thru PVT analysis. Reserves Estimation-Volumetrics, Well testing Production Technologist-Well completions,Well operating envelops, Well production Optimisation,Artificial lifting thru gaslift or pumps, General Well surveillance for sub-optimal well performance. I am sure you touched many of these areas in your Msc programme. |

ifunayam: Ifunayam, This is a thread for Drillers but let me try and answer you quickly before the drillers catch us at it. Oil and Gas business is big business, anyone can work there. there is even a separate department that handles all government/Community relations etc , so you have a chance. you can also work in HR! Engineering (Petroleum )is core business though, you find Engineers in charge of some other aspect of the business,like Security, HR,IT,Planning, |
| Re: Subsea, Mud, Reservoir, Pipeline, Petroleum, Drilling Engineers & Supervisors Zone by kvolander: 10:43pm On Sep 03, 2009 |
Shinatu: @shinatu Thanks for the info. We touched all those areas you mentioned including the economic analysis aspect. |

Who was that, complaining about the roustabout job? Who gives a damn about the name? I graduated in petroleum engineering in 2005 and since then i've not been able to secure a single job in any of the oil firms and here is someone been offered a job as a roustabout in an oil company and he's here asking if he should go or not. For me i dont care about the name. If they like let them call me a roustabout, toastabout or even monkeyabout, i dont care. As long as i can have just one shot, just one opportunity to work in an oil firm i will be better off than Donald Trump. I'm into printing now, but its like doing what i dont enjoy doing and everyday i weep within me, praying that God should give me a chance to work in the area i spent 6 years(additional one year due to strike) to study in the university. Pls dr. Ferle, what does this thread have to offer people like me? Those in managerial position can u use ur God-given position to help someone like me? Believe me i can start from the ranks, but someday i'll also be able to contribute as a top driller in this thread. We are all in the same field, one big family, assist a brother if you can. Nice thread dr. Ferle, keep the flag flying! 1 Like 1 Share |

@ lawisong its very fustrating , i cant see why one should spend 5 yrs or more in a university reading such a rewarding course only for one to come and have nothing doing , or worse still doing something that does not allign with the course u read u r not alone , i have a many freinds that read this rewarding course ,some ve entered into the banking industry, due to non availability of rig jobs,some have lost touch of what to do,some ve changed to other fields,those that can afford it flew abroad for their masters and after that nothing is forth coming. painfully enough this same roustabout job is been sought for evryday on oil rigs in Nigeria but what u see is filipinos and mexicans been recruited for roustabout jobs that is suppose to be mearnt for graduates of this country ,its really sad,,just go to any rig and chek the roustabouts ,they are either filipinos ,indians or mexicans ,recruited abroad to work on rigs in NIgeria, the militancy in Niger delta is no helping much as most rigs are no moved to equatorial guinea ,angola e.t.c the local content thing is a farce, indians ve taking over our the upostream business and r recruiting their kinsmen from their country. Only God will help us |

Dr Ferlie Thanx 4 all ur efforts, i'v been inspired by several mails, please hw much does it cost 4 d training under Dr pepple, and what are my chances of working with just that certification(mud school) |
| Re: Subsea, Mud, Reservoir, Pipeline, Petroleum, Drilling Engineers & Supervisors Zone by roughcode: 10:31am On Sep 07, 2009 |
Dr Ferlie You've been great , thanx a lot, what are my chances of working with the C-pepple mud school certificate and how much do they charge for the course? |
| Re: Subsea, Mud, Reservoir, Pipeline, Petroleum, Drilling Engineers & Supervisors Zone by RolandPet(m): 11:48am On Sep 12, 2009 |
I'm currently writing from P.H, i met C. Pepple at his office in Trans Amadi and he told that the cost of the course for four wks is #350,000.00($2,500). That the registration for the next session(jan 2010) will close oct ending, and also that they dont offer jobs after the course that they will only help in indicating where there is vacancies. I also went to met John that works with trans ocean and he told me that the wellcap cert. is only for practicing Drillers, not for newbie like me. Preparing to take the mud course! God help us. |

@Dr Ferlie and Mr Shinatu We really are looking up to u guys for the encouragement. I am a newbie Wellsite PE, though coming from an Electrical Engineering background. The job has really afford me the opportunity to learn Drilling Engineering and also the duties of other service providers on the Rig such as Mud Engineering, LWD/MWD/DD, etc. The job has been both interesting and challenging. Will surely contact u gurus when need be. Safe. |
| Re: Subsea, Mud, Reservoir, Pipeline, Petroleum, Drilling Engineers & Supervisors Zone by RolandPet(m): 11:08pm On Dec 26, 2009 |
@Dr Ferlie, i could not do the Mud course again, a family friend who works with Shell BP,ask me if they will provide job for the trainee after the course,considering the cost,the short period and the money involvement. He advised me to take Databased Management course instead of mud engineering since i did most of the courses as a petroleum engr. I have already completed the program,will be starting HSE program level 1 & 2 by jan. 2010, hope to click nice job before feb. Thanks for your courage so far! |

hello! here i come again. good day all, my name is Ellis Femi; now a fourth year student in the University of Port Harcourt, studying Petroleum Engineering. i would like to thank everyone here trying one way or the other to bless young and aspiring minds. sometimes, i have come to understand that life is not all about making the 2.1 or the 2.2, and the first class, but it is just about a personal decision to do what you love doing. and it is with these thoughts of mine that i write. something that seem to bother my mind is why is it that most people say the Nigerian Engineers are nothing to write about. for me, i feel that no one should judge that way. because life in Nigeria has never been that of a fairy tale. everyone goes through different hussles and bustles. that's why it will only take u and i to make this nigeria a better place. apart from the joy of entering my fourth year in the university, studying Petroleum engineering, it's so hard to find an INDUSTRIAL ATTACHEMENT place in any of these multi nationals, well servicing company. i love knowledge.and i feel that it's only an educated mind that would strive to carry our dear country forward. so am pleading for the house to come like a good samaritan, though, not knowing who the bruised man is, yet , still willing to offer an helping hand. my name is ellis and i would be very much grateful should any one working in any of these companies sincerely wish to help out. thanks all, i sincerely wait for an anticipated reply |

Long time guys, the recent incident in the Gulf of Mexico involving Transocean Horizon semi should be a wake up call for all about inherent dangers in our business. Well Control equipment failure is being speculated. While more facts continue come to surface, we all should improve on our well control competence beyond paper certificate. Take more interest in mitigating devices and methods and bold enough to speak up against any short cut that tends to compromise safety for economic reasons. 11 guys went down with the rig 9 Transocean 2 Service personnel (MI Swaco) that should tell you something, Companyman and other the big boys escaped. |
| Re: Subsea, Mud, Reservoir, Pipeline, Petroleum, Drilling Engineers & Supervisors Zone by DrFerlie(m): 2:55pm On May 03, 2010 |
Remii: Like you rightly said, It could either be BOPs and/or diverter failure or late response to kicks, Nobody knows yet. The basic learning is to stay focus all the time and always ensure the functionability and reliabilitity of all our safety equipment. HUET/sea survival certification should be taken seriously on the rig. It is very very sad that the incident happened. May God grant the families of the victims fortitude to bear the loss. |
