I´m a student of drilling and production of petroleum, and I think this video very important for the students in this area to know how things in this sector really work.
Know this above all else: oil and gas is highly cyclic. That high salary is high because it comes with risk attached. Expect the industry to expand and contract repeatedly throughout your career. When the petroleum industry contracts they don’t cut salaries, they do layoffs. Your new salary at your next company will reflect extant market realities for that company. When the industry expands, people find the jobs that pay the most for their skills. Loyalty is largely a myth but this is true in any industry. I have witnessed countless expansions and contractions through my 33 years as student and practicing petroleum engineer. Sometimes I’ve chosen to chnage jobs and sometimes the choice was made for me. It’s a part of this industry that we all must be prepared for.
You’re starting to sound more like a manager giving advice to a employee 😂 . I came here expecting general technical advice regarding this degree not advice on how I should behave or act in my social life.
It's pretty much mass and energy balances, P&ID's, huge distillation columns with multiples steps (can be extremely complicated). I'm a chemE and they are very similar. I would not recomend those degrees, it's extremely difficult to get a job because it's a very ciclic market and there's very few jobs.
Thanks for the video. Its 100% true whether you work in the field as well as in the office. I also notice people in the field earned their respect and got to make connection based on that respect.
Yeah establishing relationships is very important in this career path . i have an Msc in Petroleum engineering (2017) and i havnt been able to land a job till date
First off, congratulations it's a rewarding career. I admire Petroleum engineers. They're diligent workers and highly intelligent. Would you agree that Texas and North Dakota are the hotspots?
hi , I'm glad to bump into your video since planning to take this path as my career choice . I live in South Africa and I'm wondering what could I research on to be sure that i wont be a stay at home postgraduate . My main concern is being employed in this profession since I'm a South African citizen. Thank you for reading this comment.
Hi Yoshi, I found your video very useful and realistic, thanks for sharing your experience with us. I wish I had known that get a professional job as a petroleum enginner could be a real challenge if you dont speak English.
Is a good program but it is useless when you can't find a job as petroleum engineer after graduation. It's being 5 years of my graduation, I graduated from UND in 2018 with bachelor in petroleum engineering, we are now in 2023 and still couldn't find a job as a petroleum engineer or a job in the oil and gas company, likewise with all my course mates. The oil and gas companies would rather hired those with mechanical and chemical engineering degree and use them as petroleum engineers. There is a high unemployment rate in petroleum engineering job and it is difficult to transit or get into another industry outside of oil and gas with a petroleum engineering degree.
This is true I have a Bsc and an Msc in Petroleum also, but the solution is to pivot into a new area with your transferable skills, you can do Data science, data Analytics etc. Get certifications get internships and get jobs build skills and keep trying to get your Petroleum Engineering roles. You never know when you might just get lucky.
Great video Yoshi. These are relevant for most professionals, not just our industry (with the exception of the Unconventionals one!) I have one add, and knowing me, I bet you can guess what it is. Get involved in your professional society from day one and seek any leadership positions you can get as early as possible. You have to work your way up, so just start anywhere. The Society of Petroleum Engineers has been pivotal in all my career advancements. It’s opened my eyes to so many different perspectives and skills, and it’s responsible for so many lifelong friendships. Just go for it!
First time in your good channel .. I am near to starting my career as a project coordinator engineer in UAE in oil and gas Company .. I'm very distracting .. What are the important things I should know ? Technically and softwares .. Should I must know Hysys ?
I've applied a lot of places in engineering field and can't get a job so I️ went into IT. I️ graduated with a BSME in 2015. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hey 👋🏼 So I’m currently working on my B.S. in Petroleum Engineering at UT at Austin. I’m 83% complete. My question is as someone fresh out of college would it be better to seek entry level positions since experience is kinda zero? I think this would shrink down the number of positions one should apply for in other words simplify the job search. Thanks
Very interesting video I love it. But my question is can being active in SPE as a student increase your chances of getting a job in the oil and gas industry?
Maam i like to know if you have class or zoom class im currently 3rd year college and since the pandemic the hits i cant get any real eperince in real world cause it online class i would like to reach up to you si may i can attend some of your class and also gain and connect to other professional petroleum engineer i have alot of questions in my mind
Greetings maam.I'm from Bangladesh and I'm starting my bachelor of Petroleum Mining Engineering from a well known University in Bangladesh. Is it okay to choose petroleum mining engineer from a south Asian country when I've other demanding subject in option?
Now In front of me there are these choices to pursue B tech in IIT so, Petroleum engineering, Mining engineering, textile technology and chemical engineering, Mechanical Engineering so what will you suggest to take among these pls reply ASAP
How long will oil and gas sector stay? Since the world is moving towards renewable energy, is it a good decison to start a carrier to do masters in petroleum engineering? I have graduated in Mechanical Engineering
Energy aside we still need oil for things like plastic and many of the fluids in vehicles (even electric ones). Oil isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, and even if somehow it does, other countries will still be using oil.
Petroleum is not going away. Wind and solar cannot displace petroleum because they aren’t scaleable or reliable or cheap enough (barring some literally revolutionary new battery technology). Thing is, night happens every day. Every solar cell on the planet drops to zero output at night. Wind also drops to zero randomly, often when it’s needed most. You can’t stop night and you can’t stop weather. Since elctrical demand is generated instantly when it is needed, every watt of wind and solar power MUST be backed up by at least one watt of reliable, always-available generation (more than 1 to account for downtime and redundancy). This could be fossil or nuke gen but it needs to be fully developed and instantly available. This is the hidden truth about renewables - there is a high cost for that unreliability.
No bro go ahead in your line, there is very small opportunities for PE graduates in the market. Mechanical have a good feature and a lot of chances with a high ratio in different kind of fields.
Most demanded job country is 1.Usa, Canada and Saudi Arabia. Please Give you Suggest her daughter to take 1-2 year Experience in India( Mumbai/Gujarat)
Go for Masters in PE from US, since she is in IIT she will easily get LOR from her professors. A single LOR from an IIT professor is enough to get direct admission in the topmost universities of world.

That’s kind of the positions you’re limited to get the best possible chance of earning that job. Go for those entry level positions.
Is it hard to get into UT at Austin?
@@kidfromthei If you have mostly As and Bs you’ll be fine.

Are you from Nepal or India?
How long the course lasts and how much it cist to get that Degree
Usually 4 years
How long will oil and gas sector stay? Since the world is moving towards renewable energy, is it a good decison to start a carrier to do masters in petroleum engineering? I have graduated in Mechanical Engineering

Can you tell what is future career scope for petroleum engineers?
You will always need petroleum engineers! Whether it’s aiding the energy transition or maintaining operations you will need your petroleum engineers.
i am gradute student from pakistan what would you suggest me for future here there is no jobs for petroleum engineering
My daughter studying B. Tech petroleum engineering 3 rdyear in IIT, Dhanbad. Can u suggest which courses is better to achieve job in U S.
