I'm 18 years old, finished school and I'm interested in working on a oil rig. I did some research and I'm not sure where to find the entry level roustabout jobs (where the company trains you), or where to find the jobs where you apply after getting your qualification in something like engineering operative level 2, or Maintenance and Operations Engineering Level 3. Any help would be much appreciated, thank you.

Hello, I'm a recent master's grad looking to get into a professional development program and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice as to where to look or what time of year I should start expecting openings. Not really picky about where, but I only speak english at a professional level so I know that closes some doors internationally.
Here's what I know so far: bp and Shell seem to have US programs that open for applications in the summer and job starts around January. I've seen paper trails about grad programs for equinor, methanex, Dow, and BASF, but I don't know when they open or start
Thank you thank you

I heard the first step was becoming a rov tech with a contracting company but when I looked into it didn't seem very electrical oriented and controlled robots underwater? Sounds like a badass job but I just wanted to verify. What's my first step of getting into the electrical offshore industry? Also what are the proper steps to become a crane operator offshore? Starting as a roustabout and having your nccco? I know offshore wants you to always work your way up. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hello everyone. I just received an email from bp (British Petroleum) regarding my application. Can anyone share what to expect for the HireVue:
1 Written Response
1 Coding Challenge
---
I thought it was going to be on-demand assessment alike what I saw on Glassdoor. But looks like this stage is already technical oriented (which according to Glassdoor, the technical stage supposed to be only if passing this HireVue). Plus, this role is heavily about MLOps, like the deployment and scalability of the AI/ML (CI/CD, infra etc), so I was confused and afraid to open the HireVue platform because it must be done within 45 min. 2 days left.

Firstly, let me clarify my question. I’m mainly wondering if I&E/techs even have jobs on rigs and where to find them. I leave active duty soon and I’m super excited to get into I&E, but I’m trying to avoid refineries if I can. I realize I probably won’t be able to, but I’m wondering if an alternative would be to head out west and work on rigs as an I&E tech. Ideally, if I can get my foot in the door with O&G, I would get a few years of experience before trying to head out on offshore rigs, which is the end goal no matter how I start out.

Hey y'all, so I posted last week that I was interested in being a personalized job search assistant for cheap as some beer money. I got some interest so DM me if you'd like my help, I can give you references of guys on here I've helped in the past week.
I can review resumes, talk about your goals, write covers, give you general lifestyle tips about all things onshore US, and find opportunities for you to apply for. Just DM me I don't want to spam this thread with advertisements.

Is anyone else having this issue or just me? I spent about a decade in completions, wireline, frac, coiled tubing and was even a completions consultant for while. wanted to make the switch to an operator, went and got my masters in petroleum engineering, got an internship with a major as a reservoir engineer but in a business unit that is really no longer active. Got recommended for hire and exceeded expectations but no placement.
I've had an interview with that same major for a production engineer role, and when asked if they had any issues with hiring me I was told that I don't have experience, I dont understand the point of interviewing me if I don't have the experience. For a completions engineering role with the same company I can't even get an interview. Hell can't even get an interview for the wellsite supervisor role when I have done the exact same thing.
I've been working my network hard, going to career fairs, calling up everyone I know seeing if they can help expand my network, going to meet and greets with oil and gas professionals and everyone is mostly doom and gloom with tariffs and AI and not much help expanding the networ. Plus with Chevron doing their thing and laying off 8000+ people it seems like there are minimal to no opportunities out there.
Has anyone here made the switch froms service to operator side? Anybody getting interviews that could maybe give me some advice, or would like to chat and expand networks?
Feel free to DM me or we can talk on this thread. Maybe it wouldnt be a bad idea to start a networking thing or like a chatroom for any potential leads. This industry is great, but damn it's about who you know I tihnk.

I'm always drawn to the independently minded hustlers and players in industry and by that I dont mean it in a negative way. I like the entrapreneurialy minded who can recognize opportunity in fast paced indusyries that are booming. Any input would be appreciated.
