Happy Rain Week. Donate to your favourite charity (me), buy my recommendations, or through my Amazon store. Or get the Young Turks series (all 4 books). Where are those corporate sponsors? Or throw donations at me, my camera dive case flooded, and I need a new replacement. Heck, if you want to send me a Canon 5D Mk III plus dive case, I will not say no.

  • ExxonMobil Research and Engineering (EMRE) is looking for people. Visit the website.
  • I’m looking for jobs for 1Q2016. Send me your POs.
  • An associate of mine is looking for a technical safety part-time adviser. 2 Associates, actually. Needs to be needle sharp with respect to QRAs, and HSE safety cases. A calm demeanor to handle nonsensical questions from young engineers helps as well. Either that, or a drinking problem.
  • Nothing much in the news. Were you expecting jobs galore? Has The Star dropped out of favour? I see more job adverts on the facebook private groups.

Support your local bookshop!  Bookalicious at The Summit Subang is a good choice. I think they focus on trilogies, quadrilogies, and other ologies. Tell them I sent you, and enjoy the look of perplexity on their faces. Those of you who have dropped my name, thanks!

Food choice of the week? Hmm.

Seen the Episode VII trailer? Booked the theater? If you say “What is episode Vii?”, I disown you.

During these trying times, perhaps you should focus on self improvement. The following are a good set of books to start automating your uncertainty budget tables.

ExxonMobil Starts Gas Production at Telok B Platform Off Penisular Malaysia

June 11, 2015

Dateline 2015-05-12, Rigzone:

ExxonMobil Exploration and Production Malaysia Inc., a subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation, announced recently the startup of natural gas production from the second phase of the Telok gas development project, the Telok B platform located off the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

The Telok development consists of two satellite platforms – Telok A, which started up in 2013, and Telok B. Both platforms combined are capable of producing more than 450 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of natural gas.

The Telok field was developed under a gas production sharing contract between ExxonMobil, as the operator, PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd (PETRONAS Carigali), and PETRONAS to help meet demand for natural gas in Peninsular Malaysia. ExxonMobil and PETRONAS Carigali each hold a 50 percent interest in this project. Telok is one of several upstream investments announced under Malaysia’s Economic Transformation Programme in 2011, which saw ExxonMobil and PETRONAS Carigali invest more than $2.76 billion (MYR 10 billion) in new oil and gas assets to help ensure reliable and sustainable energy supplies for Malaysia.
