What is a Field Engineer?

4

Do you want to work with some of the world’s most advanced technology as an engineer today? Do you want to prepare for a career as a manager in the near future? Does the thought of sitting in a cubicle all day sound terribly dull? Schlumberger Oilfield Services is a recognized technology leader, providing products, services and solutions to the oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) industry.

Oil and natural gas supply almost two-thirds of the world’s energy needs today and are likely to continue to do so for many decades to come. Even with the rapid development of alternative sources of energy, more efficient consumption of hydrocarbons, and necessary mitigation of carbon dioxide emissions, the demand for oil and gas will strengthen, driven by the world’s developing economies. In this landscape, the exploration and production (E&P) industry is increasingly challenged to bring new supplies on line, on time, and at acceptable cost. While the world is not running out of oil and gas reserves anytime soon, their future development poses significant challenges for an industry that has only recently emerged from a long period of under-investment.

New exploration, some of which has already begun, will be hampered by the remoteness, inaccessibility, or geological complexity of many areas.

Reservoirs that have been producing for many years require increasing effort to sustain, and production levels as performance declines become progressively more difficult to reserve. To overcome these challenges, new ways of working, new technologies, and new business relationships are necessary components of the E&P industry’s response.

The Schlumberger Field Engineer position is a demanding, sometimes physical job involving complex technology utilized to optimize solutions for our clients. The information and services the Field Engineer provides help clients locate, evaluate, and produce oil and gas reservoirs more efficiently. As a Field Engineer, you will be completely responsible for all aspects of the Schlumberger operation at the job site, be it a seismic vessel, an offshore oil rig, or a desert land rig.

The Growing Need for Engineering Talent

At The Centre of The Action

Starting positions are available throughout China and internationally, virtually anywhere oil and gas are found. Field Engineers are given a great deal of independence and responsibility early in their careers and must have a high degree of self-sufficiency.

The job requires the ability to work under pressure and thrive in a variety of outdoor, 24-hour work environments. A sense of adventure is a must!

Schlumberger is looking for individuals who seek challenges, are self-motivated, and have a high energy level to apply for the Field Engineer position.

Leave the business suit behind: Our dress code is coveralls, hardhats, steel-toed boots, and safety glasses!

Your career will be technical, dynamic and multi-dimentional.

You can flourish as an expert in your own field - and go right to the top in terms of reward and respect - if that’s what suits you. Or you can follow a different route, involving business, people, or project management. The choice is yours.

ZHOU ZhenguoGeneral ManagerChongqing Joint VentureChongqing, China

“Work hard and play hard”

When did you first hear about Schlumberger?While I was working offshore for China National Oil Offshore Corporation (CNOOC) between 1995 and 2000, I met quite a few Schlumberger field engineers and got to know the company through them.

What attracted you to apply to Schlumberger?The technology, the career development, and the opportunities for working abroad.

What were your first impressions?This is a well-organized company with superior training programs and full of young, energetic people.

Please tell us about your career history and your current job.After joining Schlumberger in year 2000, I worked as a field engineer for Artificial Lift (ALS), a product & service segment of Schlumberger. I was assigned to offshore work on rotation schedule, 28 days on and 28 days off for 3 years, to troubleshoot and repair high voltage variable speed drives (VSD) and electrical submersible pumps (ESP), which was an easy part of my life and career looking back from now. Before long, I was promoted to be an application engineer working at Beijing office. That position involved working closely with clients and assisting with designs, equipment requirements, job preparation, and analysis of all related operations.

My first overseas assignment came in April 2006. Having acquired sound knowledge about our technologies and the realities of the field, I was promoted to technical sales engineer, based at Miri, Malaysia. I was all by myself to cover east Malaysia, Philippines and Brunei Artificial Lift business and operations. In the busiest year 2007, I used up 3 passports due to frequent travels between the three countries. But I also enjoyed this assignment to view the beautiful rain forest of east Malaysia and learned diving for the first time. In 2008, after plenty of sweat, hard work and some success stories in east Malaysia, I was promoted to ALS Operations Manager of Brunei, Malaysia and Philippines (BMP).

Now I am back in China as the ALS Operations Manager for China, Japan and Korea (CHG) and also the Shekou base manager. I must admit managing CHG ALS business while taking care of the base,

and at the same time doing my company sponsored master degree education isn’t easy at all! But I enjoyed it as much I enjoyed all my past years with Schlumberger. This is a true international company full of challenges and equal opportunities!

How do you see your career progression in Schlumberger?In my first 5 years with Schlumberger, I just enjoyed whatever was offered and did not think too much about my career development. Only in 2005, I started to think about my future. In year 2006 when I passed my General Field Engineer (GFE) control, during my Career Orientation Review (COR) with my managers, I set my ambitious goal to become Operations Manager in 5 years time. Once I committed to this goal and worked my hardest towards it, my effort was finally paid off and dream became true in just two years.

What do you do in your spare time? I have a broad range of interests. Basketball, table tennis, photography, hiking and camping, diving and underwater photography, learning Wing Chun martial art are my favorite pastimes. The diving experience in Malaysia was best of all in my life so far. I have always believed in working hard and playing hard.

What are the key personal qualities that allow you to succeed in Schlumberger?I am not smarter than any others, but I am one of the hardest workers and I am honest to everyone.

The three words you think which can describe the company best.Energetic, Challenge, Opportunities.

What advices would you like to give to those who are considering joining Schlumberger?If you like challenges, join Schlumberger; If you believe you are a piece of gold and want to shine, join Schlumberger; If you want to see the different part of the world, join Schlumberger; If you want an easy and stable life, stay back!

Challenges, personal achievements and key skills in my current job: Starting Jun 2012, I moved to Field Training Champion (FTC) position.

When/where did you first hear about Schlumberger?I had no idea about Schlumberger until I attended the Schlumberger career talk hold in BUAA at the end of 2002.

What attracted you to apply to Schlumberger?After this career talk in my university, I went to the recruiting session and hoped to know more about this company. This choice changed my career path. I still remember, a young field engineer showed us his passport, instead of one thin book, that was a thick “dictionary”, about 4 or 5 passports packed together. That’s the initial image of Schlumberger career in my mind, travelling without borders, which I was dreaming for quite a long time. After some further talk with this engineer about Schlumberger culture and working style and training program, my heart was ignited.

Please tell us about your career history and your current job.I joined T&F program so I spent the first 18 months in the field as a Wirline engineer in Colombia. It’s very challenging because you need to master a lot of technical things, learn from other engineers, work with the experienced crew, and provide services to the clients to their expectations. And my biggest headache was the language. I didn’t know that Spanish is the necessity until I arrived! Most people, colleagues and clients, only speak Spanish. So it was very difficult for me at the beginning. Great thing is that you can never imagine how fast you learn in Schlumberger. I learned Spanish after a while and it’s still quite useful nowadays.Then I was back to Shanghai product center in 2009 and took the job as Customer Service Leader.
