1. occupation & company you work for
2. salary (starting and current)
3. years of experience
4. college
5. high school and college GPA

James asks…

future scope of petroluem engineering??..vil i be able2 have a good salary?

i ama chemical engineer and planing of a career in the oil and gas[petroulem] industry.i vanna start by doing a masters course in petroleum engineering and i also got admission in a good university.im actually confused cos’ As a girl, is there a chance for me to work and earn well when compared to the guys?…because many of the petroleum jobs are onshore…and being in India..is this field suitable for me? will i get any jobs here in india or anywhere abroad?

Brad Perry answers:

You need either Africa, Middle East or South America. Areas where oil is present.

For the future, chemical research analysis to see how people can optimize oil use for our daily lives. As in, instead of me paying 100$ to fill up my car, I can pay 40$ to fill it up and drive as much.

Basically, if you can revolutionize Petroleum Science, your gold.

India has no future, or little future, for oil.

Middle East or South America is your target…Focus GREATLY on Language and Chemistry

    BP has confirmed that the failed blowout preventer (BOP) on its Deepwater Horizon well in the Gulf of Mexico is tilting sideways at an acute angle 12 to 15 degrees from perpendicular. Geologists and petroleum engineers are now debating the worst case scenario: growing evidence that the Macondo discovery well’s casings beneath the ocean floor have been irreversibly damaged, possibly to such an extent that it may be impossible to cap the well.]]>

    A senior student of petroleum engineering in Colombia.I agree with you. right now the industry has a deficit, but how comes that if countries like U.S and U.K don´t ask for engineers from other countries, just offering to work there for their shift and then send them to their countries…i know alot of petroleum engineers that are earning less than 1500 dollars per month; that´s a salary of 18000 dollars per year. it´s not fair,and we have to do something about

    Peak PossibilitiesIn “peak lite,” as some call it, the big issues are not so much geological as political, technical, financial and even human-resource-related (the world apparently suffers from a dearth of qualified petroleum engineers). These factors all delay the arrival of oil on the market, meaning that production would not so much peak as plateau. But with demand rising sharply, especially from China and India, even a plateau could be precarious.”]]>

    Yeah, good point. The Chinese and Indians are graduating an awful lot of engineers; presumably a reasonable fraction of them are petroleum engineers.Given that, what (if any) barriers do you see to them being employed by the western oil companies? Obviously there are some language and cultural barriers, but sufficient economic inducement can maybe overcome all that.Any reason why they could not be the ones to fill the manpower gap?]]>

    no responsibility for ensuring accurate understanding between you and your sex partner, which is just like trying to get a consent form in the silly video you linked. I'm not okay with you getting out of responsibility.

    Fourth, this notion that sexual frankness is a mood-killer is nonsense. If you sit with a sex partner and talk about things you'd like to do with each other and it kills the mood, yer doin it rong. Those of us who do BDSM cannot do what we do without explicit communication about likes and limits, and we still get off just fine.

    Fifth, if we're assigning the burden of failed communication, I'd rather a misunderstanding result in folks not getting laid, not in women being sexually penetrated when they don't want to. Your view is, what, the reverse?

    To get down to brass tacks, you're just wrong. I think just about everything you said is the same rehashed nonsense I've heard before.]]>
