How come come nobody is talking about the experienced hire positions advertised namely reservoir viz 5 -10 years, subsurface engr, project engr, construction engr and safety and environmental engrs. Are they also partaking in the skills test? What's next for folks in this category?

Reallistically, if you have cognate experience in the categories mentioned above, you probably won't be taking any test at all. As far as i am aware, most of the experienced candidates that took the test either have 1-3yrs or have experience in "other" industries. I think if you are a Reservoir Engineer with at least 5years experience with an operator, it is an insult for any company to ask you to write an aptitude test.
Most of the experienced "oil" guys who wrote the test are either MWD, Mud guys, cementing guys etc with service companies

Hi all. After 2 days surfing the net I've still found it difficult coming up with an effective strategy for the skills test. Guess I av to rely on sound residual knowledge and pray all goes well. So far all i have been able to gather is that the questions r objs which last abt 1hr. will we be allowed to use calculators? whats the likely time lapse btw the test and interviews?
Secondly, is it possible interviews r conducted the same day?
Any civil engr who has taken this test shd kindly help!!!, I NEED DIRECTION.
Goodnight

While i am not a civil engr, i would assume your focus should be on mechanics, strength of materials as it applies to the oil industry. Sub structure tensile stress and strain calcs should be at your fingertips. Success in the skills test will strongly depend on how "sound" your undergrad was. You should be able to deduce calculations without thinking too much. The use of calculators is irrelevant. You are no longer in the aptitude stage and a calculator will not give any advantage. If the problems require calculators, they'll let you use them. Considering the number of candidates, i doubt the interview will be the same day. (Don't quote me on that oo)

@Axel can you please send the ebook to me please......i av not been able to download the book as it seems the site is i unavailable at the moment.. thank you plenty [email protected]

@Axel, same here too!
I've also been unable to download, please send it to [email protected].

Thanks

@simoney & @lmoraxs, here's an alternative link http://igs.nigc.ir/BOOKS/Electrical-Eng-HB.pdf

@brosyea thanxs a lot go it..alex than bro....

Thanks for that, brosyea.

Yes, simoney and lmoraxs that's the same book

Enjoy

P.S. If you can grab a hold of a Schaum's Outlines book too for quick revision before using this ebook, that will be good.

@all I do have the Exxon Mobil skills test for the mechanical engineering position...but i need the petroleum engineering skills test..so if u have contact me at [email protected] so we could swap...am not gonna be posting it openly here....thanks..

@all - does anybody know if we will be given the equations pls?

chmical engrs. Hw far

Finally d UK invitations start rolling out...all d best to those invited

Triple C: Is it scheduled for the same date as the Nigerian invite?

Any UK Electrical C&I

guys please relax...share info if you have, it is slated for the same day as Naija...so no one is dis-advantaged here

Thanks a lot guys

Oga CCC: No one is talking about being disadvantaged here. Just wanted to know. BTW, I don't av an invite for the skills test YET. I wish everyone writing God's blessing.

The last chem engr skill test was obj all through. Some heat transfer, Thermo ( Carnot cycle, steam power plant, internal combustion engines), basic elementary chemistry( e.g. sep tech for a mixture of kerosene and water), process control.
Please other chem engrs taking the test shld share any relevant info.

Hello, pls where you provided with steam tables and all necessary equations? :confused::confused:

@ chemical engrs., no sheet of equations (NO). Those questions re normal questions, no ambigious equation required. Study all required for chemical engrg. I can recall one heat capacity chart was given as part of question not separate and can't recall seeing any steam table.

Schaum's Outlines Theory and Problems of Basic Electrical Engineering

I hope to print this out tomorrow and use it for some revision till Saturday. A friend who has taken the skills test before said told me that the other PDF ebook I posted earlier is too advanced for the skills test.

@justice59 and @peleke thanks. Pls were most of dem calculations? Or balance of calc and theory

@Justice59, thanks for the info, can u be more explicit? Were there more calculations? What topics were asked? Was it objective all through? Advise us on how to succeed. Cheers

Again. Don't waste any time reading all the topics in chemical engrg. Get a good text that consist of summary of all core topics in chem. Engrg. They re normal questions. Processes-adibatic, reversible, polytropics. That How far we can go. Do ur reading. Success.

I am the emissary......to the ruler of all the world......the god of gods, king of kings......and by that authority......I demand that someone tell me if any UK based Electrical, Control Instrumentation dude has been invited.

@saintneo lol. @justice u try. May ur girlfriends be fertile though would be thankful if u can recommend a good summary text book. All d ones I have are d majors. Tnx

Is dere any hint for the pet engrn test? Please don't 4get us 2... Its nt abt chem n elect guys alone. Thanks as we await d info

Hey guys, also dont forget Mechanical engineering guys.... @Triple C, help out ur Co-Mecho oh....

@TheJoker, little physics/chemistry and touch fluid mechanics too.

@TheJoker, girlfriends wetin happen, all fertile na wahala oo. Little physics/chemistry, concentrate on the core and touch fluid mechanics too.

Chemical Engineers...here's an invaluable link with schuam's outline - thermodynamics:
http://www.zomgstuff.net/hoff/School...20--%20370.pdf

Cheers!

For those invited.

Please, is there anyone whose surname falls within O and Z?

@StorckTL 87, der were no steam tables and equations, as Justice 59 rightly said. maybe u shld knw the thermal efficienc formulae fr int comb engines.

yes, there is one i know of

@all Please were there questions on electromagnetism (faraday, maxwell etc) and similar stuff ?

Good luck to all!!!

Just a tip from d last skills test conducted.

D Mech test consisted of abt 45 obj questions to b ans'd in 60 mins.

Topics covered were mainly turbo-machinery, as such is tilted in favour of those who picked options in Automotive Engineering Technology and Air-condition and Ref'gn Engrg.

Turbo-machinery such as Compressors, Turbines, Pumps, pressured vessels, heat exchangers etc, as they relate to oil and gas processing, storage and transportation.

These definitely have a lot to do with, Heat and Mass Transfer, Fluid mechanics and mechanics of machines where things as inclined planes and basic mechanics is invloved.

I hope this helps, I wish Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ all d best, I will update as I recall.

o boy see question.
