hi guys,

But as i saw in mos tof the ads they ask for experience in oil and gas.
if any one want to switch to it how can he do?
i think to go to oil and gas you have to start your carrier in it only.
because previously i tried to apply for oil and gas jobs but no success because they need only guys with oil and gas experience.

what others think?

G’day all,

In WA it’s all about resources at the moment. You need to be in mining or Oil and Gas to get the big hourly rates. I have spent over 15 years in Oil and Gas and very rarely see higher rates in other industries.

Keep Planning...

Kevin.

rates for roads & infrastructure planner is the highest rate of a planner in UAE and may be equal rate for Oil and Gas planner rate.

Oil and Gas rates for planners are always high as compared to Civil and others construction industries

G’day,

Planners in Perth, WA are in short supply and highly prized. $100 plus an hour but you’ll need experience and an Australian work visa.

Regards,

Kevin.
