Getting A Job

The oil Industry is a good one to be in..

Unfortunetly, Theres not much demand for software people like me in there!


Who told you that :D
Software development is one of the biggest new industries in the oil field ....
Resevoir Analysis
Resevoir simulations
Engineering simulations
etc etc etc

Landmark Solutions for example, takes up 25% of the office space in our
Norway offices .......
 
Well the week ended on a high note for us . Our son got his plumbing job & the pay is twice what he was getting when he jacked his last job so :thumbsup: . He went for the interview wednesday at 1-30pm & started 8am thursday :o they must have really needed a plumber :P

As for the above post RE the rigs ? is it something that a 21 yr old plumber could apply for ? He is enthusiastic & ready for a challenge :)

The guys that do turbine control software certainly make a not so small fortune. I wish I could get their daily rate.
 
Maybe I just didn't know what to look for? Certainly will be keeping an eye out! Thanks teamemmenracing and Herminator....

Just imagine that there is no "off the shelf" software for the industry, every single bit of software is custom built.

Just wanted to add Drilling systems automation the the list.
Drilling Rigs have been tansitioning from manual operation to full automation over the last 10 years .... software that drives it all is still in full blown development ... :thumbsup:
 
Id love to get a job like that. Really making a difference and being rewarded for it. Are you aware of any locations etc?

The only place I know of around me is Camerons in Leeds. apart from that it seems you have to go to Norway/Aberdeen/London?
