The figure for Kenson was an offer I got for specialist e&i tech in 2016 for 12gran 14days. It was then stated to me that it can go on to 21days and if I wanted to leave the platform before time it would be deducted from my salary. I turned it down because I could have made that same figure on land for a month.

So from 14 days at 12000 it reach to 21 days for the same salary and if u were to leave before time money would be deducted?

Kenson don’t make joke when it comes to their money. If there is a way for them to get out of spending they will. They cheap out on everything especially salary. they pay you a flat salary with no allowances and get away with it, use the cheapest medical plans they can find and have no pension plan.

What are some courses (locally for now), short and medium term, that you all would recommend for someone to do while on the path to becoming a Process Engineer and afterwards? Information concerning post-grad degrees that would be beneficial to such an engineer would also be appreciated but outside of two or three degrees, what certification courses or things along those lines would you all recommend as something you did 'and never looked back since'?

The individual has some years work experience in the Energy Sector, is already a Student Member with IChemE and will be attempting to become a Student Member with the APETT as well. TIA.

Instrumentation (which I assume would be encapsulated in PPO) and Project Management. Thanks for the info this far folks.

It have any programmes that specific to instrumentation locally?

I did some instrumentation when I did cpo but assume employers want to see an actual instrumentation course when hiring as a instrumentation tech/eng

I hope people take into account the state of the country's oil and gas sector, as well as the local economy before taking on any longterm schooling...

Try diversifying if you are in industry, consider either management or maybe finance and accounting. Might be worth adding some variety to your technical qualifications.

Maybe even project management....but not sure of the amount of projects that can absorb folks though.

Better to be WORKING at 40 on shift then to be working 8-5 stacking shelves at a grocery, unless you are willing to settle for significantly less....but I guess their may be some benefits to your personal life with regards to the amount of time you have...I guess....
