With this thing you mentioned, Your assertions lack any sense of credibility! Absolutely bizzare!
There are ways to preach that your discipline is important not this crap!
Otherwise continue with your sequence strat. Mapping, geostatistics, and co!

u no know say na geoscientist dey talk?? Mayb u ddnt get my point...lemme rephrase: i talk say people wey study medicine are called doctors, architecture - architects, surveying & geoinformatics - surveyors, Engineering - Engineers, etc but as complex as geology is, no name is used to flaunt their degrees. Besides they are given less respect, when you attend interviews even HR PERSONNELs rate geographers ahead of geologists.....clear or not! If not i go start to speak geokogy here grin like..... ''the present is the key to the past''

U don't know anything about geology cum geoscience so no point arguing with you.
In HR d grading is based on knowing places via its actual location and not the constituent of the place(geology).

The bottom line is that you know nothing about geology

I'm a Geophysics student of Unizik !!!

I would like to switch over to Geology, how possible is it and do u guys think that Geophysics is better answers plz
I'm a final year student of geology in Unizik. You can switch to geology if your GP is up to what is required.
But geophysics is a very good aspect of geology, why do you want to change?

Have you heard about Irving?
Do you know Watson, Buerden, Tillerson or even Woods?
Do you know MD's in Nigeria reports to them?
Do you even know who sanctions FDP?

Do you even know each company's organizational structure?
Abi you think management and making decisions is creating conceptual model or facies modeling

Result isn't the ultimate test of knowledge like i said you actually don't know anything about geology. You are just making unnecessary comparism with some courses i can make 2.1 without aactually going to school

so if shell, agip, chevron advertise for fresh graduates with first class & 2-1, a 2-2 geologist go follow??


Lets face the fact. The workload in studying geology surpasses that of most other departments, and when place side by side with succes rates of their graduates/grades, it looks like a mere punishment. Its true that you gain knowledge, but check out your coursemates & see how many are doing well as 'geologists'. Most people switch to other areas....

Sir I agree you know everything. We are talking about NIGERIA here. Yeah I know of Exxon Tillerson and Shell's Rijswijk, my alma mater Fupre usually had yearly EXXON UAP that were taught by Exxon staffs. So trust me I know some decisions are made at a higher level. What am saying is that the MDs in Nigeria play a bigger role in the success of the IOCs here than the CEOs from their international HQ. For eg, the last SheLL MD convinced the head honchos at Shell HQ to sell assets in Delta state that were underperforming. After selling and moving to PH for some years, they are moving back to Delta state again. So obviously the former MD gave HQ some bad Intel. Hope you get my point now.

As it is baseless and myopic to say a quartz graywacke is better sorted than quartz arenite, so also it is utterly myopic to claim that an E&P company when managed by non-geologist wont be successful!
Re: Official Nairaland Thread For Geoscience Students by Ebi4life: 10:15am On Mar 09, 2017
The truth be tild, the course you studied matters alot. Some of the snall biys I prepared for jamb after I graduated, are earning about 150k and above because most of them studied medicak courses, while I am still roastung with a job of 40 k even with my 2::1 iin geology. The fact is that there are few firms in Niigeria that requres the services of Geologist. Please if you have any younger one, kindly advise the person tio go for other field that has hiigher chances of getting job and not geoligy.
