Civil Engineer - Oil & Gas Industry?

[wullie_t25]

I am currently looking at my options and considering moving upto Aberdeen to work in the Oil & Gas Industry.

I have a Beng in Civil Engineering and about 3 years experience as a Geotechnical Engineer. Can anyone suggest suitable job titles to search for in the oil & gas industry?

The only relevant one I can see is Project Management.

oilandgasjobsearch.com and oilcareers.com are the two biggest out there.

expatengineer.com also has a lot of oil jobs abroad.

Then goto the indivdual agencies Orion, NES, Mentor, Swift, QEDI etc etc.

Depends what you mean by "relevant" there are a wide range of degrees snapped up to do what I do (service company field engineer) from geologists to chemical engineers (Mechanical myself)

If you want something relevant to your degree, I can't be of much use, but a lot of the bigger companies (both services and operators) just go for someone with a decent engineering background and then put them through their own training.

Thanks Getitupya, will have a look around them.

Thanks Parsnip, by 'relevant' I guess I meant, what fields my degree could be used in.
