As a favour to an ex-colleague, I am reposting this job opening for experienced engineers. The position is Malaysia based. As far as I can understand, there are positions for 10+ and 5+ years offshore experience. You’ll be working with an FPSO, and out on the field a lot. In this case, all disciplines are welcome to apply.
Send an email here if you are interested. And I get to vet the applications.
Is there any chance for internship?
wan: I’ll advertise when I need interns.
Appreciate if you could contact / refer me to companies looking for interns (engineering: ME, EE, Civil, Petroleum, Chemical) as i m a coordinator for internship at UTP. TQ.
wan: I would try MOGEC (Malaysian Oil & Gas Engineering Consultants) if you want to place engineers. I would also contact would be the HR / Public affairs of the various PSCs. I would have thought UTP would be in an excellent position to influence PETRONAS to implement MOGEC’s aim of getting new engineers (and perhaps trainees) a mandatory part of any work done for the UDCs.
Don’t forget that there’s a slowdown at the moment, it’s difficult to get any jobs out here.
Contacted PETRONAS HR all, but as you said – thr s a slowdown n places are lmtd but number of interns increasing (not only UTP but otehr uni as well).I need to try all available resources. Besides more n more interns are interested in O&G.
TQ for info and advice.
Dear Mr. Watta;
I’m faizal, a mechanical engineering fresh graduate of UNITEN. Is there any vacancy in your company for an entry level position or any contact which suits for my job? Please advise..Tq
Wata,
Does reccession seriously affected the O&G business?
Need ur honest opinion as an experienced in the business.
Short answer: yes. Oil Projects have been shelved because it is not economical to pursue them. Consider that revenue is unit price x number units sold, and that oil’s unit price and demand has dropped, then it’s a bleak picture. Gas projects seem to be going on as there still is a demand for this commodity. We hope that national companies step up to the plate, and carry out a semblance of civic duty (i.e. keep awarding contracts) to keep O&G suppliers from tanking. But, it’s a good market for cash rich companies to get the best deals and lock in the low prices now, ready for making more money during the coming good times.
I think the oil and gas indusry is more interested in pinching trained staff then getting graduates.
Additional skill on your CV like mowing lawn, washing boss’ car, helping to clean pantry is a added advantage.
dear mr wata,
i’ll be a fresh graduate in engineering soon. so, i think before i’ll join the o&g, i would like to join the graduate program from any o&g company. is it a good choice? and can i have your email address?
thank you.
Anwar: if you have a 1st class degree from a well known university (Cambridge, Ivy League, UM) then maybe you can get onto a fast track program. If not, remember this is a recession, and a buyer’s market. There is no ‘try b4 buy’ program, esp. by the O&G companies.
I’m suggesting for the undergraduates to do intern with Vendor for Oil & gas. For example, if you are an EE student, you may join Yokogawa, Emerson Process, Foxboro etc
I’m an EE undergraduate student and going to do my internship next year. I’m really interested doing my internship in a field of control and instrumentation. Do you have any other company names other than the name you mention above?
yusof: Have you tried the Google? Or looked in your careers advisor’s room?
I’m material engineering student from usm, taking subjects relevant to petroleum engineering . is it any possibility to join O&G industry? what will be the job field? can Mr Wata show me a path to join O&G industry ? ( i’m interested to work as field engineer)
Ace: for field engineer, join a service company. Read the papers a lot, and me the requirements before attempting to apply.
Give me a donation, and I will submit your CVs to any that I come across.
Economic is not slow, its a standstill.
People are still dreaming about a lot of money…… good… keep dreaming your life away
do you forsee support jobs opening for support staff like administration by next month.
Most of the positions there are availabe are for technical. What is your opinion? I am looking for one .
candy: there should be positions for support staff. I don’t write them down because I’m not interested in them. As jabba says “(economy) at a standstill”. I suggest grabbing any job you can find, since support is support is support, no matter what industry.
every in malaysia is looking a job, and if wata can find everyone a job on his blog, i suggest he be the next prime minister of malaysia to solve our country’s economical problem.
Hi, I’m looking a new jobs in O & G industry stationed in Kelantan. I have an experience about 3 years in designing of offshore structures. Any vacancies???
Iskay: I’m impressed there’s an O&G industry in Kelantan. Can you share what you are doing? As for your own personal situation, what you see on my blog is what you get. You can try and apply to the non-advertising companies in Paka, but that’s not guaranteed.
Now, if you were a process eng with 5 yrs experience, and pass our patented Synergy ‘strafing run’ interview (“we leave our interviewees shell shocked”), then we can start talking.

Hi Maya,
How m is the treatment given to Malaysian Oil & Gas professional in Kuwait? As I understand most of them are there on single status and if they are there on married status the kids are being enrol into Pakistani school not Western International School.
Hi Salleh,
The Company will cover ninety percent (90%) of actual school tuition fees only for the education of up to a maximum of (4) children between the ages of (4) and (19) years of age (children must be in Kuwait with valid residence) . The type of school is determined by the passport nationality of the employee.
Maya
Hi Maya,
What about the salary and other perks such as housing and transportation as standard of living in Kuwait is quite expensive.
when you said type of school is determine by the nationality, does this mean Malaysian are not eligable to enter Western School?

Jamshaid: GeOlogist, EnGIneer… nope, can’t see how you move from one word to the other. Jabba, you want to handle this?

Mr Wata,
I am very interested in drilling. with no offshore experience, and despite having work in civil construction line for less than a year, I could hardly find any firms that offer drilling engineer trainee jobs for fresh grads n entry levelists. They say a drilling eng needs at least 5 years drilling exp. Donno where to start with in drilling.So would you gimme some advice? any local contractors tht do the drill? TQ.
ah, start with a drilling technician. you can get some info from drilling contractor listed on internet.
Respected Sir,
I am Barry recently i graduated from my BEng(Hons) Mechanical engineering with 2nd upper class from the University of Hertfordshire, UK. i just got back from UK currently looking for job in Malaysia or anywhere actually if its possible as long as im able to have a the experiance. Currently after i got back from UK ive been taking courses, for about a few months now for example TWI CSWIP 3.0 Visual Welding Inspector, TWI BGAS-CSWIP Painting Inspection, safety course, SEA survival, Autodusk CAD, Autodusk inventor. But im sorry to say i have no experiance in the working world. i did my final year project on corrosion and protection. Im willing to learn. im a malaysian i can speak both bahasa malaysia, English, Mandarin, i also understand Tagalog.
I just wanna thank you in advance. i hope you would consider thank you once again
Dear Wan,
I’m a Petroleum Engineer with more than 4-years experience with Schlumberger. I’ve spent the last 3 years working in Australia as a Field Engineer in the Drilling & Measurements segment. This allowed myself to gain in-depth understanding of both onshore and offshore drilling and rig operations.
I’m proficient with various E&P applications in particular Drilling Engineering and Production Surveillance and Field Data Management. am very interested in drilling. with no offshore experience, and despite having work in civil construction line for less than a year, I could hardly find any firms that offer drilling engineer trainee jobs for fresh grads n entry levelists. They say a drilling eng needs at least 5 years drilling exp. Donno where to start with in drilling.So would you gimme some dvice? any local contractors tht do the drill? TQ.
This is a proper request. People should follow how to ask a question/advice.
Anyway, do you only want to work in Msia?
For drilling engineer, you need to find places that have more operators/EP companies. Example, indonesia have about 190+ EP companies, mostly small companies, where they value good drilling people with your experience. Start with one of them and the work your way to bigger more reputable employers.
Why not remain in Australia? I know they have a booming CSG/CBM industry.
Although unconventional, they usually drill plenty of holes into the coal seam.
Plenty of MWD and DD engineers required there since the wells are drilled surface to inseam.

Beary: What’s ‘Autodusk’? What are you doing now to secure a job? You may want to rewrite your comment again, using capital letters and punctuation marks. Or write in BM or Mandarin. Or stop using a Universal Translator.
yeah, its funny no punctuations mark.
Hertfordshire…. nice place.
I think he means Autodesk Inventor.

You can apply work in the UK perhaps since you just completed studies there.
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/tier1/poststudy/
It is better in terms of salary, prospects etc.
Just my two cents. I am not intending to drive you away but there is no hard and fast rules that will assure you of a job here.
Hi Mr Wata,
I’ve read you advertisement regarding the recruitment for the O&G engineer.
I’m interested to join in, but what i’m facing now is i have 2+ years working experience which not related to O&G industry.
FYI, i have a bachelor degree in mechanical.
Currently I’ve search several O&G services company but they totally disregard my application due to the lack of experience in O&G.
My question is, how can a person like me to enter the O&G industry if they just looking for experienced people in O&G.
Looking forward for your advice.
Regards,
Research Engineer, Aircraft Composite
Sahri: PSC companies might value your expertise if you join them. Service companies who sell services on a manhour rate may not, as the same PSC companies who may hire you directly will balk at paying for an engineer without industry experience.
Your best bet: keep an eye on job opportunities for graduates.
For a donation, I can look at your CV, and give you comments on how to tailor for Jabba… sorry, the O&G employers.
look, the industry is very competitive. to be honest, you won’t get a job in oil and gas if you don’t know anyone.
Ja-Hutt’s first job was through personal recommendation. You think its easy if you have a good degree with very good cv, then you’re wrong.
anyway, try hard, and you get better chances if you start in smaller companies. if you want to go for big companies, find out if they have graduate training program (if they have grad prog, then they will take graduates, if not, tough).
Yeah agree to what Jabba said except for the recommendation bit.
Work your way up. Try starting with a service firm forget looking for big oil companies. Besides they do not do the work or know nuts.
Don’t go for big and fancy service cos both blue and red that most grads go to just start small.
Although they pay peanuts (I mean really small money)but you will pick up quick.
The money is sweet but the pain is real.
Mr wata,
did u ever deals with SWIBER OFFSHORE?If have,give me some info about this company..
Thanks a lot
Dollah: I have not done any business with Swiber Offshore.
so you’re not even know the name of that company?
thanks
Dollah: I do know the name of the company. You previously asked if I ‘ever deals’ with them.
i’m about to join this company.can you share anythings you know about this company?
thanks for your replied
have lots of friends in Swiber at management level, but what do you expect to know?
what are you joining as? engineer, security guard or what?
you need to be more specific. but then again, if someone ask a question, “I am joining petronas, what do you know about them?” how you want to answer?
If I know you name, I’ll ask swiber not to hire you.
thanks for your advice..

Dear Mr. Wata,
I am Khong and will age 30 this year. I am holding a degree in mechanical engineering. I involve in production ans improvement in manufacturing sector thoughout my 7 years of career. I have a very high spirit to join oil and gas sector especially in the offshore eventhough fail to get in via plenty of application. I would appreciate to have your advise and recommendations to achieve my career goal.
KhongKH: I don’t think there’s much from production and improvement you can claim credit for from production and improvement that will entice operators to hire you as an experienced hand, though I suppose if you tailor your CV to the companies needs, you might increase your chances. I suggest looking at the manufacturers or suppliers to the O&G industry. Go look at the MOGSC directory, and see which of those companies grab your fancy.
i am not Malaysian fresh graduated, from Birmingham University in Bsc Mechanical. I wish i can apply for engineer position. I currently living in Malaysia since i will getting marry with Malaysian girl.
Alberto: we all wish we can apply for engineer position. Don’t know about you, but I am looking at the accredited courses provided by the Engineering Council, and I can’t see BSc Mechanical for Birmingham U. You sure you want to apply for an engineering position?
Nice one. Get a PR first, get a job while you are at it then get married.
MSE/MMHE malay corrupted directors pakat with FILIPINOS recruiter and make million ringgit in manpower supply. They employed incompetent and inexperienced Filipinos engineer who use their experience in MSE to get better pay in Saudi.
This Filipino never work in oil and gas project before but get job in MSE getting salary RM7,000 per month.
From:
Subject: MALAYSIA MSE/MHHE TRAINING CENTER FOR FILIPINOS – WHAT A STUPID ?
To:

look at the CV of this filipino engineer without relevant experience getting RM7,000 working in MSE/MHHE. He use MSE as a training center to get better job in Saudi.
MSE is very stupid to become used as training center by FILIPINOS engineer to gain relevant oil and gas experience and get better pay later in Saudi. Very very stupid.

Dear Wata,
Your site is super interesting. Once i started reading your site content, i am glued to your evolving knowledge/opinion base website.
I am a mechanical engineering graduate by education.I have LAN, Internetworking (narrowband & broadband), Enterprise level wireless networking and now steam turbine (mechanical plus little electrical) experiences. All hands-on jobs. How do i cross match these skills in O&G industry? I planned to be a consultant someday, but havent found a specific traits that i can pursue. Any ideas that can shed some light in the industry?
Al Raffar: Wa ‘alaikum salam. My question is, how do you cross match your experience in other industries? If you want to build on both skills, I guess you need to create a new service category, supply ‘Net monitoring software for turbines? Creating a program that can design turbines that is optimised for network usage?
Dear Wata & Jabba-TH and others,
Salam and Selamat menyambut Eid Mubarak.
You point is noted and they all make sense at every sentences. Kudos for your knowledge and expertise yet again.
Insya Allah, with persuasiveness and constant pouring my effort in converting applications into interview calls/job offers, I see myself comfortable working for power generating rotating machineries, while I am open to other job descriptions as well.
I am sure there are lots of job offers in O&G industry, but might I ask from you, which Organizations or the likes that place their Engineers for multiple sites within Malaysia, the region and worldwide alike? Though I am being specific diverging to more general type of positions, your answer is indeed appreciated.
FYI, my experienced started off with network-based engineer and now with couple of years in turbine works (mechanical and electrical jobs)
Thanks in advance for your suave and straight-to-the-heart wisdom!
Salam.
Assalamualaikum and good day Mr Wata,
I’m a fresh graduate of B. Eng(Industrial Electronic) and I’m interested in oil and gas field. I have undergo my internship for 6 month in oil & gas sub-contractor company (electrical & instrumentation) at SDE yard in pasir gudang. If you don’t mind, would you share some company list(sub-contractor or vendor)here.I’m currently job hunting and want to start developing my work experience first before applying to big companies.Another matter is, I’m thinking to take the CSWIP 3.0 cert soon.and recently, I’ve just found the International Welding Engineer (IWE) course. From your opinion, which 1 have better prospect and which 1 should I take as a fresh grad?
Halim: Wa’alaikum salam. If do want to work with the big companies, try applying to them directly. Of course, they will be looking for the cream of the crop, so your success rate depends on your academic qualifications and your personality. If you still want a list of smaller companies, you can start looking at MOGEC or MOGSC member lists.
Your second question indicates you do not know what you want in the future. Do you want to continue in Electronics, or move to a new career as welder? I suggest you figure out what interests you, or at least will drive you to continue climbing a clear progression ladder.
Thanks for the answer.
All this idea about CSWIP 3.0 and IWE things comes to me during my internship session in SDE yard. I’ve been doing welding inspection (visual) for E&I stuff for 6 month and I’ve met some people in the E&I field that posses this kinda certs (CSWIP 3.0 / 3.1) and they said it’ll be an advantage in my resume.I’ve been told that WI are well paid..so..that’s how it comes..hehe..
you can try Dayang..ksb phase 1..and meet tengku laksamana for safety briefing..what a nice name..n Shahpadu..PERWAJA is looking Special grade Artisan and steam engineer grade 1.I heard they will setup blast furnace and upgrading fume extraction systems…attn to Hj Amdam Khalid..KBC has a big problems regarding their plant looking engineer..try sent cv to them…good luck who those interested.
BTW,KBC means kemaman bitumen..PETRONAS refinery..ypu are welcome.
Thanks! XD
mr wata;
any vacancy in synergy as a process engineer?now i’m thinking to back into engineering division.FYI,before i worked with msia oil and gas construction as project engr in pasir gudang and now with offshore oil and gas as HSE in singapore.from your opinion,what are the chances to jump back into engineering with the HSE position at this time being?
hairul: if we have vacancies, I will post them.
your experience, short answer : NO
mr jabba;
then now i just need to follow the flow as hse guy?but i think with the combination of engineering background and hse will give me better understanding the project execution.put the safety at top in every design aspect.i’m the one that don’t like to stick with one roles.if can i want to be involve in whole cycle of project(project,qc,e&i,drillg,etc.)
HSE is a hype. Really, the best HSE guy i knew was a political science graduate working at site.
Advise;
1. Safety can only make money if you are in technical safety. this is done by company like ERM/Trident/DnV/Llyods.
2. Rolling stone grows no moss, no such thing as involve in whole cycle, unless you become the president of an oil company….that’s bullshit. don’t you see even the VP is still divided to VP drilling, VP operations, VP marketing….
Dear Mr. Watta;
I’m Hafiz, a Gas Mechanical fresh graduate of IKM JB. Is there any vacancy in your company for an entry level position or any contact which suits for my job? Please advise..Tq
Hafiz: Nope. Try PGB.
Salam Mr Wata,
I’m seeking for job in oil and gas company, can u give some advice. I have experience in calibration instruments in MOX, Air Liquide and Air product. Graduate in Dip.Mech(UTM) and have 5years experience working (as oil & gas contractor) and now i’m thinking to take certificate from SIRIM for calibration in specific instruments.Thanks.
Zafran: I would suggest you contact companies that are involved in providing calibration services of instruments in custody transfer applications, like Sense Services or SGS. Normal calibration in an O&G PSC is usually carried out by the instrument techs.
Or rethink your career plans.
Actually I like to be 1 of O&G tech but since I have applied and there is no feedback from them.Do you have any suggestion? and I like to work in O&G company since it can generate my knowledge and experience.Thanks.
if there are no feedback, the simple answer is you are not good enough.
maybe you can do the following;
1. cry
2. pray
3. donate to wata (and still get no guarantee).
personnaly, a career change (like wata said, rethink your plans) is required. be a gigolo, be the best you can.
Ok. there are good suggestion i think. maybe u have done it before..
nope, i haven’t.
Wata,

Whatever your reply is, please oh please include a rough estimate…

Seriously????
U guys are hell of comedian, where are your damm sensitivity , did u know thousand of us have been blacklisted because of our college loan , thousand of our recent and present graduate still jobless, pull out this kind of sarcasm is just fucking idiot ,maybe by your time is easy to get a job just be thankful 4 that , O&G people huhhh ….. semua org O&G nie x habis2 nak blagak nak tunjuk aper kekayaan kepandaian wehh sumer 2 not permanent, anytime anywhere jer….
Dear Khairul the idiot,
Let me reply you in a methodological manner, not like a string of comments like diarhea.
1. You have been blacklisted for a college loan you did not pay. That is because you are an idiot for not paying your debt. Jabba paid his college loan, so he did not got blacklisted.
2. Thousands of our graduate is jobless because they are rubbish. If the write like you on a CV, (example, “blagak” should be spelt “berlagak” and don’t mix bahasa with English), then they should continue to be jobless. Even in MacDonalds, they teach you to say the greetings in either Malay or English, not both in the same sentence. So, yes, you are an idiot.
3. Yes, money is not permanent, but I am enjoying it. Hope you enjoy yourself eating grass. I, on the other hand shall continue with my steak. Idiot.
P.S. My first job was RM600, and it was just enough to take bus to work, and it was hard. In conclusion, after that post, I still think you are an idiot.
Khairul: I kinda get sensitive when I interview people, and they don’t show any retainment of technical knowledge, and blame it on having studied the topic more than a year ago.
And this post is 2 years old.
yeah khairul…i support u,
most of these fellows never “bersyukur” but always “riak”….forgot hereafter…huhahhaa so sorry mr wata!
birdz: I would be interested to know if there is a higher percentage of those who never “bersyukur” in the oil & gas industry than in others. Or if we commit more crimes than the average Joe.
An idiot always support another idiot.
I suspect there must be some kind of association around town….. Institution of Idiots (IOI)….
Maybe that’s what IOI mall stands for? Are you working there as a janitor? (maybe this is a word to big for you. Janitor means “Khairul yang cuci jamban”)
Salam wata,
saya jumpa blog ni secara tak sengaja, tahniah..banyak informasi berguna. Bidang saya ialah HR bahagian recruitment, di sebuah syarikat yang boleh dikatakan terlibat dengan memproses minyak. Apa yang dilihat, trend graduan masa kini hanyalah mengejar kekayaan. Tak pernah ada pengalaman tetapi inginkan gaji yang beribu ringgit, ingin bekerja di industry glamor dan terlalu cerewet memilih pekerjaan. Saya pernah berjumpa dengan seorang graduan yang baru bekerja kurang dari 2 tahun, tetapi lagaknya melebihi mereka yang mempunyai pengalaman 10 tahun hanya sebab dia bekerja di industry yang dikatakan glamor.
Khairul: Perlu dilihat dari sudut yang lain mengapa masih ramai graduan masih mengganggur
Even trainee engineer also started to “blagak” nowadays.
When ask to do some photocopy work, they started to give some s-hole look.
But I know not all trainee engineer like that…
Mat: maybe because there was no module in university called “photocopier fundamentals”?
Yes… the university should introduce a subject on Transport Phenomena of Photocopy Machine to student.
During my time, I was very happy to do photocopy because I can keep a copy of it thought I might not know when to use it.

Hi,

I have almost 2 years experiences in bulshitting and corruption (onshore and Offshore)
PS. What an idiot….. and with these words, what do you expect. Yes, if you’re reading this, I am calling you an idiot.
Hi there,
First of all happy new year. Been browsing through your blog recently and found it very informative and helpful. Please do keep it up !!
Well I have a question regarding career progression within O&G but first let me give a brief introduction about myself:
I graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from a local university and am currently working with a MNC O&G company in a petrochemical plant in Sarawak. I have experience in the field of Inspection which includes corrosion monitoring, Inspection database management, RBI and FFS. I have approximately 2.5 years experience in this field. This have helped me to gain hands on experience in the downstream maintenance segment .
Lately, there is a lot of demand in the upstream segment especially within this region (Asia-Pac) and am exploring the possibilities for a career move to there. I am particularly interested in subsurface disciplines (reservoir engineering/drilling/completions/etc). Question is, will my experience help in securing these subsurface positions ? Should I gain more experience before jumping to the upstream segment although it might mean starting anew my career?
Thanks in advance for your help in the queries above.
Regards
Bruce
First of all, the intro is well written, which is always a welcomed change to “prevailing idiotic contributor” asking for a job here.
Anyway, if you are planning for a career change to reservoir engineering, it will be a very difficult move, as Petroleum engineering graduate are in abundance, with very little job opening for fresh graduates, let alone someone with a “different” type of degree. The “in demand” personnel are those with extensive experience of more than 10 yrs.
You can either take a masters in reservoir engineering to increse your chances in getting into the “field” or try getting someone to “assist” in joining the O&G companies/upstream consultants such as Schlumberger etc..
Mr Jabba,
I went from Drilling to minor onshore fabrication and offshore installation to HUC.. hahahaha
Not relevant.
Topside facilities is actually a small (compact) plant. If you can read P&ID, it means you actually understand what’s “going on” on the topside facilities.
p/s
Maybe it should be call “transferable skill”.- upstream? downstream? mid-stream? What non-sense am I writing here. Worth only 2 cent.
