- So what exactly do Petroleum Engineers do? Petroleum Engineers have a wide range of responsibilities and these differ based on their position and company size. Petroleum Engineers are responsible for everything from determining how the well will be drilled to keeping the well producing economically. In this video, we explore the four main types of petroleum engineers.

Which is better petroleum geoscience or petroleum engineering in the long term? Thanks and keep making these videos.
I’m going back to school and I worked in the field for 8 years in the oil field, I plan on going to UNAM in Mexico City and get PE degree, i may be over analyzing but with a degree from Mexico it’s probably not going to be a problem looking for a job overseas?
Hi... I have worked by 15 years as Production Engineering in Maracaibo lake. And I think there are others categories as the sellers, the laboratorists, etc...
Almost 5 years working as a drilling fluids engineer.🤘
Wow congrats
Please what has been your greatest challenges and achievements
I’m a petroleum engineering student
Is it difficult to get a job in oil and gas. Please share your experience
@@vigilvarghese6507 Well, it depends. I started working in 2015. In that year it was a bit easy, but now it's a bit difficult, at least in my country.
@@crownboy24 The mud engineer has one of the most responsibilities in a drilling operation. The mud is key achieving a successful drilling operation.
The greatest challenge? I would say drilling an exploration well. That was 4 years ago. Fortunately we did a good job.
I know this comment is kinda old but how is it over there??
Hello.. I'm mechanical engineer. Completed B.E. . Want to have career in drilling engineering field. What should be my next step to enter on rig as an offshore drilling engineer? What kind of course ?
do you know anything about petroleum engineering in Canada?
What are the classes I have to take if I chose petroleum engineering? Thanks!
Hey Mimi! Check out our channel and subscribe because we already did a video on this.
What would be the chances of getting hired as petroleum geologists? Can mining and exploration geologist work in oil and gas companies?What would be the salaries for this post?
Are you guys working petroleum engineers
what do I need to study more chemistry or physics in high school to become a petroleum engineer?
You will take a year in both chemistry and physics most likely. Having a more extensive chemistry background would be more beneficial compared to physics.
Sebastian Ziaja Thank you
@@SJ-gm5un it depends, for example in drilling engineering physics more prominent than chemistry but in the other hand, chemistry can be more beneficial in reservoir engineering. The bottom line is that you need both equally.
Rashed Almandoos thanks sir
is it hard to find jobs available? I'm from Houston Texas and would like to stay here for work, but willing to move around if necessary only in the USA.
Depends on the time. Houston has a pleather of jobs and is the biggest hub for oil and gas jobs in the country probably (maybe besides Midland).
Same!
Which type of petroleum engineer travels around the world the most and which type of petroleum engineer get payed the highest
@dk bruh no need to be rude today.
I’m an ME major and would like to be a completions Engineer
Is it common for companies to hire mechanical engineers for these jobs or do you have to have a petroleum degree?
Hey Dawson! Thanks for your question! From what we've seen, it's not as common for mechanical engineers to work in the upstream oil and gas industry. Aside from petroleum engineers, chemical engineers would be the second most common type. However, the midstream and downstream side of the industry might hire more mechanical engineers. Not sure. But, I figure manufactures of oilfield equipment might employ mechanical engineers. Does that help any?
~Derek, Oilfield Basics
Dawson Kram ya I have petroleum engineering degree
@@OilfieldBasics the gas and oil industry hires Mechanical Engineers all the time, y’all should know that…
Thanks bro it is very helpful
Is there any filipino who works in USA as a Petroleum engineer
I don't know any personally but I do not know why your nationality should make a difference in hiring.
Try Malaysia
Can you elaborate the difference between petroleum geologist and petroleum engineer?
in simple terms petroleum geologists look for the oil reservoirs vs engineers work on extracting the oil from the reservoirs.
Will I be able to succeed going after petroleum engineering living in southern Alabama?
Depends on the school you attend and what major and internships/co-ops you're able to get.
Hi I just started as a frac hand at Halliburton and am interested in becoming a petroleum engineer. Would you recommend staying at Halliburton for a while to gain experience while pursuing my bachelors, or would it be more efficient go to school full time, and then come back to the company?
Stay at halliburton. Here in México we said: the train pass only once.
Whatever you're more comfortable with. If you want more of an upstream position (what they're discussing in the video) then you will most likely need a petroleum engineering degree. It's a lot of work and takes at least 4 years doing it full time. If you're willing to do it part time and extend that out even further than that is up to you. Best of luck!
Would a person with mechanical engineer degree be limited when becoming a petroleum engineer
A Mech E would probably have a harder time getting a job in oil and gas...at least when generally speaking of a petroleum engineering type of role. There might be some opportunities when it comes to equipment design/manufacturing/infrastructure/etc. however.
I think mechanical engineers potentially can be integrated in drilling operations due to the high involvement of machinery and mechanics.
I have a question I’m only 16 and I want to do drilling engineer like so when we begin are going to go away from home most of the time or how is this going to work please explain thank you just found ur channel and subscribed!
Thanks for subscribing Ali! Check out my video on "Work Where?!"
Am interested in studying petroleum engineering
Hii bro, would you like to study of petroleum engineering UG or PG...?? I mean masters degree...??
can a process engineer work at petroleum/ oil and gas?
Sure.
What are the coarses related to petroleum eng.
Hello Lamec,
Great question! To pursue a Bachelors degree in Petroleum Engineering, you will be in school for four years. During the first 2 years, you will take general engineering classes such as chemistry, physics, calculus, fluid dynamics, statics, and more to build that engineering mindset and basic knowledge base. In the third and fourth years of your schooling, you will begin taking more petroleum-focused courses such as production engineering, drilling engineering, economics, geology, and more! The order in which you take these classes depend on the college! We will be filming a video on this topic in the coming weeks so be sure to subscribe so you don’t miss it!
~Sebastian @ Oilfield Basics
This is so true
I'm a petroleum engineering student as well
Greetings can i ask something ? Should I have a lot of knowledge about chemistry more than other subjects ? Well thank you for your time.
Depends on where you want to take your career. Most PE's don't use chemistry during their jobs very much if any.
Yes if petroleum engineer want to make his career as mud engineer
Does petroleum engineering involve designing or engineering drawing??
Like CAD drawings? I'm sure there are some people who do that, but it's not so much going to the petroleum engineer. However, we are well versed in wellbore diagrams and such the like.
Drawing is secondary subject that is taught only basics in petroleum engineering
, I'm doing a diploma in Petroleum Engineering in the head, is this a good way
What do you mean?
@@OilfieldBasics what this means is the this dude is doing a diploma in petroleum engineering and when he graduates, he is going to be a petroleum technologist who is going to get hands on experience. Is this a good start path before going to get a petroleum engineering degree?
how about the oil and gas storage and transportation engineers‘ salary？
Can chemical engineer be a part of upstream sector?
Good
Hey i have pursued my degree in Petroleum Engineering. But i couldn't get a opportunity till now. All companies ask for experience they don't want a fresher. What shoulf i do!
thanks for reaching out. Perhaps you might try to widen your search. Have you tried the service side of the industry? For example: MWD, frac, tech companies, etc?
Vic oil petroleum inspection safety
i am in the last semester of the petroleum engineer , i am from Mexico, but i wish get job in USA, is there opportunity of get job in USA for foreigners? obviously i know to speak english
Congrats on your graduation! There's definitely a job market for you here. Texas would especially be a great market for you.
What engineer refines the oil? Chemical engineer?
I would say that is most likely to be the case, but it's likely not exclusive.
Do American petroleum companies hire foreign engineers?
Yes, absolutely!
Hi. Good day. I have a friend who working now as drilling engineer. But he wants to work in production team so he will pursue his in to work in development wing. He knows that working in production team is a giant step to pursue his dream to work in development wing. Is there's a opportunity for him to work with your company as production engineer? If there is, please send me an info how can he send his application in your company. Thank you so much and GodBless..
In Petroleum engineering have chemistry subject
Depending on your school you may take a class focusing on the chemistry of hydrocarbons. But most chemistry related work goes to chemical engineers.
It is typical to take 2 years of undergrad chemistry. Chem 1 and chem 2.
What the starting salary for mechanical engineer in petroleum companies
We're not sure exactly, as our background is in petroleum engineering. Our best guess would be to look up the average salary of a mechanical engineer and increase it slightly. I figure they would get paid at or above average if they worked in the oilfield.
Is a minor (associate degree) in Petroleum engineering worth it against the competition?
I've never seen anyone hire a PE with an associates degree. Didn't even know that was a thing. I would be very skeptical. Definitely not likely to compete well in this job market. Too much supply and little demand.
Whats the salary petroleum engineer get and in which currency its paid
Currency would likely depend on the employer. For salary I would just reference online salary sites like glassdoor.
Is it fine to get a degree in mechanical engineering instead for petroleum?
What would you want to focus on? There are some with Mech E degrees but not a lot in Upstream...downstream and midstream would prob have more though. So, it depends on what you want to do/focus on.
What is the difference between petroleum engineering and petroleum technology engineering? Are they the same? Just change the name ?
Generally petroleum engineer’s workplace has to be far from the city? and Should petroleum engineer has to move away few months from my own wife and kids?
One of the nice things about petroleum engineering is that you can many times morph the job into what you want lifestyle wise...if you want the opportunities that take you to remote places and away from your family, you can make it happen. Many times, however, petroleum engineers work from a corporate or field office and live with their families nearby. Some field offices can be somewhat remote, but I guess it just depends on what you consider remote.
What is turnout engineering in oil & gas
What do you mean turnout engineering?
@@OilfieldBasics sorry it is turnaround engineer in oil & gas. Who works to reconstruct or maintain the company
@@safhadkhan2427 I've never heard of that being a title.
Would an Electrical Engineer have an opportunity to become an operator?
Like a production operator? Please elaborate.
@@OilfieldBasics Precisely.
@@MrAnonymousunkown Literally just about anyone can be a production operator haha...that's actually what I'm doing right now as a rotational learning experience. An engineering degree is a little overkill, but nothing wrong with it. You might be able to get more specialized jobs though that would be similar.
What is the entry level salary?
U.S. somewhere between $75-120k
@@OilfieldBasics can I get a job with a degree in civil engineering
@@hughflucas7075 You likely could. It might be more focused in facility engineering though. That might be your easiest in.
@@OilfieldBasics thanks guys
Does petroleum engineering have biology courses in it?
Our college does not. I can't speak for all, but I would say it would be relatively rare to be a requirement.
Zeinab Chouman no
What is the average starting salary in the us?
You can easily look up actual numbers on sites like glassdoor, but I'd say it's around $100k (give or take $20k). However, I've heard of engineers working for wireline companies and making north of 150 and 200k. It really depends on the company and position. Either way, petroleum engineers have the highest starting salary of all engineering disciplines.
What position is that salary is $900k?
Umm..
Fire the dude on the left did this really take 2 guys??
Hahahahahaha.................
