Its alright...you are welcome...
Thank you for the compliment

I thought u were referring to my post not knowing that u were actually referring to that sex worker disgusting post. I have no reason why I should attack u but to keep our peace

KINGTELLER:





Then your question is faulty, (see bolded) check google for litre per foot conversion, its equivalent to meter sq on conversion scale

http://www.google.com.ng/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=what+is+litre+per+foot

This question I give is in schlumbeger past question

From conversion,
5m equal to 16.4ft
From the question,
U have 200liters in every 1 ft
Therefore,
U have 3280 liters in 16.4ft
That is 200*16.4 that is the volume in leiters,
From conversion again
3.785liters equal to 1gallon
So 3280liters equal 867gallons
From conversion again
1bbl equal to 42gallons
So 867gallons equal 20.6 or 21bbl
Final answer

dats gud,am a welding engr 4rm pti,so i knw alot abt delta ppl...i tot u were a mallam b4

Lol, I know most pti guys, am currently working with one ogaga, he finish from Pti, sodium is with total now and most of my guys who finish from pti are in schlumberger. But guy! graduate from ur school dey oil and gas sector well well. Must of us has learn their secret and we are moving along with them.

We did little on welding den in school, those electric arc welding, oxyacetylene welding, neutral flame, oxygen flame carbonise flame, flux welding etc but na just the theory sha

This thread is taking a boring dimension.

Atleast most of us that are engineers know some english but u did not have a single idear about the question I ask, so do u see that u are not better than any body here, u are only good in ur field, stop claiming english teacher here. No bold my write up again and ask me to do needful cos u are not up to my foot in my own field

KINGTELLER:


Modify:
1Lpf = 0.00328 m sq ................ conver 1
1bbl = 0.119 cubic meter...........conver 2

from conver 1, get the conversion of of the 200Lpf and multiply by height to get volumetric

200 × 0.00328=0.656m sq
0.656×5 (Height of rect) =3.28 cubic m

Divide the cubic meter with convers 2 to get the no. of barrel

3.28/0.119= 27.56 barrel (bbl)

Still not correct, liter is volume so coverting it to m sq is not correct, u only convert liter to meter cub.
Try convert the 5m to ft so that u get u total volume in liters before u covert to bbl to make it easy

Nice one bro. 2-stroke engines do not have valves and fire once every revolution, unlike 4-stroke engines which fire once every two revolutions.
Firing order of a 4-cylinder engine: varies depending on the type of engine. However, most engines now run on 1-3-4-2

Guy u too much

lobito007:
Here's a question I was asked at an interview: Why is diesel engine preferred to petrol engine in heavy-duty vehicles?

Diesel engine are usually more stronger and more durable when compare to petrol engine. Diesel engine power stroke are usually more stronger and they can withstand heavy load

KINGTELLER:

So u be Delta, ehen naa u I go dey compete slot with abi... Make I go jack more studies... which side of delta are u from

I be isoko guy, isoko south. No worry all of us go enter nnpc forget the slot sharing matter

KINGTELLER:

Solution:
1 Litre per foot= 304.8m
200 Lpf (200×304.8 ) = 60960m
60960×5 (H of rect) = 304800m cubic
since 1bbl = 0.158m cubic
304800/0.158= 1929112 bbl

Not correct, try one more time

lobito007:

Nice one bro. 2-stroke engines do not have valves and fire once every revolution, unlike 4-stroke engines which fire once every two revolutions.
Firing order of a 4-cylinder engine: varies depending on the type of engine. However, most engines now run on 1-3-4-2

2 stroke engine have 2 valves that open and close for a mixture of fuel and air to enter the chember for exhaust gas to go out, 2 strok engine do not have intak and compression stroke. The carburetor mix the fuel and air and as both enter the combustion chember, the spark plug ignite the combustion, so u only have power and exhuast stroke.

The firing order of a 4 cylinder engine are 1,3,4,2 or 1,2,4,3 depending on the designer. The reason is that piston 1 and 4 move together at thesame time and piston 2 and 3 move together at thesame

KINGTELLER:

Four stroke engine performs 4 cycle process of gas (Intake, Compression, combustion and exhaust)
The firing order of 4 cyclinder engine adopts the 4 cycles process though applying carnot cycle process to reducess energy loss by adiabatic process

To add to what u have said on the first question, 4 stroke engine do not use spark plug while 2 stroke engine use spark plug, in 4 stroke ur piston will move down and the inlet valve will open for air to enter the combustion chember( 1 stroke intake), then the inlet valve will close and the piston will move up to compress the air(2 stroke compression) when air is compress it becomes hot. At this point the nozzle will spray fuel into the hot air in the chamber and combustion will take place, the combustion gas will push the piston down ( 3 stroke power stroke or combustion), then the outlet valve will open and the piston will move up again to push out the exhaust gas( 4 stroke exhuast)

It is so appauling that this thread which is supposed to be educating and enlightening as we prepare for the intervew has been taken over by immaturity and infantry. From dwelling so much on grammatical blunders, to value-eroding discussions, and insults. No one is talking about likely interview questions. No one is looking out for a fellow who share their major to discuss field-specific questions that may arise during the interview. You all should take a cue from the NLNG thread. Before you make a post, you should ask yourself if an HR rep from NNPC would consider you employable after reading such. Please let's make this thread meaningful again.

Mechanical engineering GT hopefuls, how is your prep? I am expecting questions from thermodynamics, int comb engines, Eng design, strength of materials, turbo-machinery and fluid mechanics. What's your take?

This interesting, I have been looking for mech eng guys, not forgeting rotating equipments as well.
There are some questions I have been ask in several interview as a mechanical engineer, let's share it here. The questions are
What is the different between 4 stroke and 2 stroke engine?
What is the firing order of a 4 cylinder engine?
What are the laws of Thermodynamics.

No comment is wrong, let's share idears mech engineers

YES, I am ready!!!

Look at this practical one also

Why is the discharge and suction of a centrifugal pump usually at 90 degree?

U no be english teacher, the questions are suppose to be for english teachere, but if him still need, enough are on the head to drop for him, I don't need to consult any tin to drop them

Haha haha hhihihihi hihihi hohohohohohoho kakaka owiga owiga chi chi chi haha ha .. I laugh in hindu ... aaaawwwwww !!!!! My Dear mr HE/SHE aka MR, I WAS A TYPING ERROR

CAVEAT: Haven't you inflicted enough pain upon your soul? Or will your insatiable hunger to uncover the truth about my malevolent character push you deeper into the abyss of much more remorse and public obloquy? Heed my warning. Do not proceed wordings with me. For this nairaLAND could either be your sanctuary or it might dig your grave. Make your choice.

I never knew you were this worse. I could have mortgaged a life jacket for your sake by not posting at all in this nnpc thread. I should have continued with my reading and observation. But you thought you were smart and poetic. Now the whole landers are watching you drawn helplessly and hopelessly in a pintsize pool you foolishly constructed.

For your information, my first post on this thread was a game. I was only playing psychometrics on anyone willing to fail. Testing the interpersonal-skills some of us claim to have naturally. Interviewers do that sometimes to provoke you and then watch your reaction to see if you are naturally rude, intolerant and aggressive most especially if it were a customer service post.

But your few brain cells couldn't cushion themselves to that thinking direction. I knew you were not the first to hit me in failure. But you allowed your volitions mislead you into dancing to the auto-suggestions of a lady who call herself "somMUMU". Oh sorry I meant sombaby.

Less prosaic soul, she was the first to hit me bad and I haven't responded till now right? You think I ignored her because of her gender ? NO. ... I Just refused to see and observe her because she is as insignificant here as a moisture content in a contaminated diesel fuel.

As an act of pity, I suggest you make no further comments. Because, it seems by each extra-post you make, your brain deteriorates more in a geometric retrogression.
I can see that you are now humble in your reproach, settling for a peaceful co-existence with all. I am also willing to meet you in the real world and commiserate with you by registering you in a night school. Don't worry about the fees. I shall pay .. I just want your IQ and poor grammar to improve below average

He is a proud psycho. Very highly inflammable. Do not throw match boxes in my combustion chambers because when I burn, even your cohorts will be consumed in the flames.

A fool at 40 is still speaking, don't u see that they called ur post a digusting post, dat means u are rotting.

If u are not practicing blo job, u will not use it to test interpersonal skill, u first post here just tell us what is inside u what u are interested in,
Just do ur HIV test and post the resul here, if u are negative, maybe some people here will give u a contract for that job u like
Till I see ur HIV test result posted here, I will not answer u on this thread again no mattere what u say

Hmmm...pls retract ur claws...I was not referring to you or any of ur posts...I was talking about the same post...the one u quoted...the same one that is causing all the heat on this thread...
Thank you for acknowledging me as a lady...i chose not to retaliate coz sth tells me U did that in error...pls retract ur claws...
I endorsed ur earlier Posts and even chose to forgive you for attacking me for nothing I did or said to you...i may not have that grace again...you re so lucky...today is divine mercy Sunday...peace

Sorry, I never mean to offend u, I don't insult ladies who have good moral behavior and I know u are one of such.

Apart from causcasian, if my post has ever offend u, please don't be angry, since most people get angry with my post and I see it as the fun of the room till we hear from NNPC, I will stop attacking people

Switlife:
You guys should ignore Babacha's grammatical errors or correct him without hurting his feelings. I know it's very tempting to laugh but let's try.

@Babacha, not every correction is a ridicule. Learn to improve (on yourself). The fact that u are 'attacked' does not necessarily mean u should 'attack' back. Sometimes, silence is golden. This is the hallmark of maturity. I hope you won't throw me into refinery for this.

PS: I hope u guys know some of us will be deliberately provoked/ridiculed by the interview panel to test our so-called 'excellent' interpersonal skills planted in our CVs.

I type most of things in haste, and some times, most of the keys won't respond when I type them and I don't read through before submitting cos is not an exam and is not a report I am sending to my supervisor. I see those error myself most time after submission.
As far as u understand what I am trying to say, I just leave it like that

After reading through, some of us fainted, then woke.
people are scared of quoting. They might not wake.

Guy say what ever you like, am not too sure of his gender that is why I used he/she in place of he or she. Go through nairaland very well, you will find out that I only talk on this trend. I am not a fresh graduate hunting for job every were, I join nairaland just for this nnpc trend and nothing more. I only pick interest on this trend for some reasons. Is a free world, u can go ahead and quote anybody and say what is in ur mind, nobody will kill u, quote me and say any thing, is part of the fun here, even if I see u face to face I won't be angry with you, we will only joke over our disagreement on the trend and life continue.
I am not angry with anyone here, I am only voicing my feeling.
I am not perfect so I can make mistake and if u attack my mistake, I have the right to react to your attack, I don't hate anybody here, I wish to meet most of the guys I have strongly disagree with here face too face let's know ourself.
One thing u must know is that no one is better than the other here, if u are good in english as a social science guy, u will not be better than the engineering guy when it come to his own field.

Please my fellow landers. I want to use this podium to express my dire need of a job. Am relatively new here. I really need a good job. You guys should help me in fact with any job. I will manage any kind of job. Even a blo job

Caucasian was not joking, he/she mean business. He/she join nairaland on february 8 2015, so he is actually new. Read through his/her post on "chams management trainee aptitude test, CITA Petroleum Aptitude Test Invitation" and other job thread and see dat he/she is badly in need of job and he/she is ready to do anything. He/she come to the wrong thread to tell people dat he/she need a sex job, this is not a place for sex worker or sex talk

Caucasian:
Hahahahahaha haha ... I didn't wanted to reply but am forced to... who told you and how do u know that the people here are decent? is it wat people say and how they artificially comport themselves in formal settings that make them decent? or their actual actions in secrecy and natural situations? You talk out of REASON.

Let me also give you a degrading question as a fringe benefit reward for your tiny-mindedness. Is it only decent people that pass interview and occupy covetous job posts?

Without mincing words, am willing to borrow you a piece of my cosmopolitan mind but thats if and only if you can afford the sky-rocketing interest rate per minute in just a day. Hahaha babacha is the apple of ignorance's eye. you are already dead like Abacha, your ancestor.

You talk very lowly with erroneous spellings. Whats ur age Lol lol .. Please am not replying you forthwith so you don't pull me down to your level...better yet, learn the art of conversation from your mental superiors e.g NpcComplete, Topiipii and Scarlet.... hahaha *still laughing*

Just look at ur explaination to decent. So u called urself a graduate and u don't know what is indecent speech. So u don't know what dencency is about and u want to borrow people ur brain, which school u go and which course u study?
No deceive urself, maturity is not about age and to be intelligent is not about been a graduate or passing aptitude test.
A little advice for u " go and learn moral cos ur speech tell people who u are and what is occupying ur mind"

U are still showing how foolish u are, u are now telling us dat u are not decent, do u see the reason I pity who gave birth to u. U are claiming to be an old man but u are on a job forum talking about blo job? A fool at 40
Guy I believe in action, can both of us drop our linkedin profile address let see our level of experiences and training we have acquired after graduation cos my mind keep telling me dat u spend ur time developing urself on how to run after little girls on the street. If u trust urself,and u are good as u claim, den let's show it on linkedin,
U claim to be matured and ur post are just showin how immature u are. If u cannot show that maturity u claim on ur linkedin profile, den I will keep u silent cos silent is the best answer to a fool like u
Mind u, the finger only type what is in the heart, for u to bring sex talk into a job forum did not only show how indecent u are but ur lack of self control and for u trying to defend ur indecency at ur age, show the level of ur foolishness.

Its overly sad that the likes of allendk , baubacha and their directionless grasshopper-followers Could abruptly fall prey to my test purposely organized to check the EASY COMBUSTIBILITY of some 13-17yrs old persons.

Swiftlife was very excellent to say that they are merely 3months to 11months old. Babies like these don't think before blabbing and Wasting their few neuron cells on irrelevancies.

Someone who never targeted a post at you, How could you pass derisory statements on his parent ? Its only an Hypocrite that destroyeth his neighbor with words. In fact, How do u define intents? How do u also define humor ? What does doing things for a LARK mean to you?

Scarletdp was kind enough to lend you an expensive common-sense but the gravity of your folly pulled you back into the abyss of mental darkness. You are lost. Find yourself first before your certificates try and fail.

I advise u ask God for the gift of discernment so u don't remain a stooge in the game of life.

I don't post comments here because of "the insolent child with the lilliputian mind" but I only read and observe the threads Still progressing. Often times, some users ignorantly just cast aspersions at eruditor who is only enjoying himself as a self-created fictitious character whose behavioral intents are actually innocuous.

Please if you have problems of inferiority-complex, affableness and self-depreciation, I think you should consult a human resources consulting firm. Maybe they have your solutions as dragnet. But the bible says in all things, get UNDERSTANDING. Learn to understand people. Sorry.

Am sorry but I will have to call u a fool cos u speak like one. U are just showing to to whole world that u don't a good moral up bringin, cos if u have, u will not bring immoral and sexual talk into a job forum and call it a joke, go to romance forum and crack such joke there cos we only have decent people, here

Barby101:
The people saying English is not a necessity are actually the ones prolonging this matter. There is nothing wrong if you make a mistake and you are corrected. No one is perfect and we are all learning.

But it becomes a concern that one makes a mistake and is being corrected but he/she refuses correction and instead, tries to prove he is right.

It's even of greater concern that a graduate will say English is not a necessity in Engineering, knowing fully well that 1)NNPC isn't recruiting only Engineers. 2)a good communication skill takes you far in life. We are all GT's/OT's, and thus, your technical experience is not really needed. It is your ability to COMMUNICATE to them why they should hire you amongst your peers.

If you are corrected, it's for your good. Accept it and move on so we can discuss better things here

Go and study ur english text book and dictionary for the interview. Just to ask u one question, how many interviewer hav u seen dat use grammar to ask u question in an interview? They all use simple english dat even a primary school student will understand or terms relating to ur field of study.
My humble advice to those in the technical field
1, If u have any technical experience, pls go and research more about it
2, If u don't have any experience, ensure dat ur school project reflect on ur CV and prepare to defend it again, dat show u are also technically incline. Instead of studying english now, study technical terms relating to ur field.

Dis is where I rest my case about english or no english, grammar or no grammar Thank u all

QED1:


No offence but the short-sighted news in your write up is funny and alarming.

1. NNPC is NOT recruiting only engineers.
2. Even if Einstein is your ancestor, and you have the fattest CV, and you cannot communicate, no one will even get to see what you're about. Your diction will be a turn off. What will be the point of getting the required skill set and training when you can't even tell them what you have?
3. Be you a doctor or an engineer, you won't be interviewed with Hausa, Igbo or Yoruba. You will be interviewed with English. We're all here awaiting the interviews and you think you shouldn't prepare all round? Really?

Bro, go online, inform yourself on interview techniques and prepare. I'm sure you'll find out it's not just about what you know. Because no matter your qualification, if you can't sell it, no one will buy it. I hope they'll buy yours. Cheers!

Bro no think say sit down for house o, am current working and this is the 3rd coy am working with in the oil and gas sector and no be grammar I take dey pass the interview. I no need to go online to inform myself, I get plenty interview experience o bros

The point am trying to help guys understand is dis forum is to stop attacking people write up and be claiming dat they know english more, see every body here who pass the aptitude test as a potential nnpc staff, u may be claiming english lecturer and correcting people write up but u will be surprise that the person u are correcting here may sell himself more dan u on d deal day. Even if u want to correct, send the person a PM not insulting him or her publicly, well during school days, no be people who dey show demself for class get first class

So what make u think dat some one who pass the nnpc aptitude test cannot sell homself? U were telling some one on this forum to go and work on himself and learn english, what make u think u are beta dan dat person u were insulting on dis forum, do u think sppeaking grammar make u beta?

QED1:


So because O&G does not need English, you won't work on yourself? It's like saying because you're not hungry now, you won't bother about what to eat tomorrow. Even if you don't need it for the job, work on yourself because that's what any being that has breath does. We strive to get better, not stagnate and rot. Please, written and spoken English go hand in hand. That voice you hear in your head when you think is usually what you put down. Now, imagine how your bad English hits the panelists at the interview. People have gotten jobs because everyone that came was good enough, but someone had to be taken; and one got it because he could knot a tie. Let's work on ourselves, all round, with the time we have now till we get the interview invites. Cheers!

Chairman if u think learning english now is the best way u work on urself, den u are making a mistake. If u want to work on urselfn go and acquire training and skill that are relevant to oil and gas coy and ur field of study, no company will pick an engineer who speak english well with zero technical skill and training, thay need an engineer who can do the job not engineer who can blow grammar. Great engineers are people who solve technical problem not people who blow grammar. Don't think u are developing urself more dan others in this room cos is after the interview we will know who has realy develop himself, I can tell u dat most guys here will speak less in the interview, their professional ccertifications and technical experience is what will give dem the job not the english they speak. don't take any body who pass the aptitude test for granted
