Ive got some questions regarding the industry here since an expression of interest from Oz.

But I need to pick the brains of someone whos in it here.

My idea is to get experience there and then come back here in the long term.

Questions regarding the value of experience gained there, to be used back here.

By PM preferrably.

You may want to narrow that down slightly as Oil and Gas is a VERY broad church. You may get a better answer to your question.

I work in oil. My experience is mostly downstream - crude acquisition, refining, supply & distribution of products, and also trading. Drop me a PM and I'll try and help.

You're selling yourself short. I heard you're pretty slick on petroleum jelly too.

What I mean is that when us folk from a technical / practical background get with folks of a commercial / legal bent ... it's probably the most frustrating thing we have to deal with.

I may be doing you and your peers a disservice but it invariably seems like the commercial / legal chaps want to talk about things as opposed to just getting on with it.

Hence the "paid by the word" jibe.

All very much tongue in cheek; you understand.

If, by "commercial" you mean that your job is to do deals on cargoes as they sail around the world then I apologise and I'd like to try your job for a couple of days.

Cheers,


Eric smile
