According to some oil and gas workers there are local and international oil and gas recruitment agencies deploying workers to the Middle East who are pocketing a big chunk of their recruits salaries. This is the hidden fact to the employees who are looking for jobs unsuspecting that salaries being offered to them by Recruitment agencies are way below the standard given by their potential employer. It is unimaginable that some recruiters are pocketing as much as 50%-75% of the proposed salary and only 25% is being received by the recruit/employee without his knowledge. With this scenario who will regulate this situation? Who should police the activities of these recruitment agencies when no one is in charge?

Impact of Recession in Oil and Gas Sector
March 12, 2010
The construction industry especially Oil and Gas projects are currently experiencing the impact of recession. This is a delayed reaction of the commercial construction to the global meltdown. In effect many oil and gas workers are having a hard time finding new jobs or assignment.
Recession and Oil and Gas Workers
September 3, 2009
Are oil and gas workers affected by the current economic turmoil? The news that went around the loop says that unlike a year ago, many projects now by oil companies are still on hold. Perhaps by the year 2010 recovery will begin. Demobilization of staff started early this year especially for QATARGAS where a lot of construction work is nearing completion. New projects are still far in sight. Even the Asian region has its share of slow development in the oil and gas industry for this year. However hope still shines in the Russian Region where the country of Kazakhstan offers many jobs at the moment.

Oil and Gas Job-Family Status
October 14, 2007
It just dawned on me that applying for jobs in oil and gas on family status could be very rewarding for an applicant who already has a spouse and children. Unlike bachelor posting, family status could be more expensive to the employers. More so if the benefits would include relocation and educational assistance for the children if there is any. This is a monumental undertaking and a social responsibility which might deter the employer to entertain married status application. On the other hand they could employ both the husband and wife especially if their qualifications match the company vacancies. For example an engineer husband and an accountant wife could very well fit the project/operation and administration/finance requirement. Somehow this is like a “package deal” employment. I believe companies like Qatar Petroleum is doing so. Kudos!
