Is there a high salary and career growth in the oil industry?




I work in the oil industry for 7 years. I would like to tell a little bit about my work, about how much money there spinning, wondering whether the work in the oil industry, a possible career and what the pay is.

Work in the oil industry I like and not because they pay good money (though it is also a huge plus), but because it's a really interesting job :)!

My profession - Supervisor directional drilling (Directional Driller Coordinator), I work directly on drilling (both on land and offshore - offshore and drilling ships - drill ship), taking part in the drilling of the well, playing a responsible role - manage a drilling process. And it's such a demanding job, I tell you! What happens if cant be my fault - it's very, very bad for me!

For example, 1 hour of idle land rig costs about 12-20 thousand dollars, and sea drilling - $ 30-50 thousand

If that happened - so my salary for 20 years is not enough to cover the losses ... I am being punished for any ruble shoals ... - the world's oil industry is a normal practice: nakosyachil - salaries slashed. Therefore, there is an incentive to do it just fine :)))

Once I made a mistake, even in his first watch, valued at $ 220,000 ... But forgive me, because it was not just my fault, but also the driller. To you immediately fired from his job to do herd of more than $ 1,000,000.

Most of all I like to work on drill ship, it is so cool! The ship is located at a distance of about 250-300 km. from the coast and the well bore, the fresh breeze, simply awesome night sky, sunrises and sunsets ...
Offshore platforms are not so far away, up to 150 km. from the coast.



How much it costs to drill a well?

On the ground, as a rule - 10-15 million
At sea - 20-35 million
These figures include everything from start to finish, all parts, labor, machinery, etc. etc. These data are shown for India in Russia is cheaper to order.

What I do, what is the meaning of my work?

My task - to drill a well and get into the oil reservoir at the target site (hit the target). Goal - a sphere of radius of 20 meters (sometimes less, sometimes more, max / min = 10/60) at an average depth of 3000 meters above the ground. If I do not get to that goal - the well is lost, even if there will oil ... Maybe it will be operated, but is officially lost.

In short, I am present directly at the well site and give orders driller to what to do at any given time of drilling. In driller has a team of about 15-20 people, which he passes my instructions and these workers perform my team. The wells are different, four major types: S-type, J-type, horizontal and vertical.





During the drilling of each well I have to develop your own, unique, drilling practices, as all wells are different and none is repeated, even if you're 30 years old you will work ... Here the most important thing - the experience of an analytical mind + + ability to make critical decisions quickly. For each well, I model in mind the likely processes occurring there, deep in the earth, in order to understand - why up here, there are some events, and my main goal - in every way to avoid an accident.

I like my job, because it is possible to travel the world, as professionals like me in the world and demand is a huge field for career growth! Schedule for my five weeks at home / at work 5 is normal. For example, the last 3 years, I fly every month in India (by plane is always paid by the employer, it also pays for movement within the country, the hotel food, taxis, and all the expenses on the way).

Currently about to discover Vietnam or Australia - still do not know where srastetsya. It is also very interesting to communicate with other nationalities to learn other countries! I will say that out of five weeks on the job is always given 5-7 days rest - you can go around the country, on the beach sunbathing.

What you need to park in the oil industry?

In Russia proper education is mandatory - for now it is enough. Abroad, the availability of education is not compulsory, it most importantly - experience. Even more than that, very often there is no need education ... I like that worked with an American who had only nine classes (Russian system), and earning a lot of money, about $ 30,000 per month!

To work abroad and successful growth through the ranks necessarily English. But in my experience I would say that does not require a good knowledge of, the average is more than enough. But when I went the first time, so were hardly able to speak, only the standard phrases and pronunciation of it is better to say nothing .... So the most important thing - the desire and aspiration, and the rest will follow.



What money I earn?

In Russia, I received 125,000 rubles. a month in India - $ 14,000 per month and that's not very much, because I have little experience. I once worked with a Canadian with 25 years of service, he received $ 32,000 a month ... So the experience in the oil industry - is your biggest bargaining chip.

When I was, you do not have plans to work in this industry, like easy money - business to do ... But something went wrong ... I had to go to the oil industry, which is now absolutely no regrets. I began to work as a simple worker, assistant driller, with a salary 15,000 rubles., But I had a goal - to achieve something and I wanted to do so.

I wrote this article for you to think about the future of their children. I propose to invite them to choose the direction of oil industry as a place for future work. Help your children to become wealthy people satisfied with their lives. In the oil industry so many different professions and great career prospects! I assure you that the oil industry will be interesting to work with a chance almost unlimited career growth and high salary.
