 Panduan Karir Migas

PENDAHULUAN

Bekerja di perusahaan Migas menjadi impian banyak orang, besarnya gaji serta fasilitas yang diberikan
perusahaan Migas menjadi faktor utama untuk meraih karir di sektor ini. Namun tidak semua orang
beruntung mendapatkan karir Migas, hal ini disebabkan :

1. Pelamar tidak mengetahui peta karir Migas secara utuh sehingga banyak pelamar yang
terjebak hanya melamar ke satu jenis perusahaan Migas saja (yang kebetulan paling
sulit dimasuki), yaitu KKKS, Drilling & Oil Service, padahal diluar itu banyak perusahaan
Migas jenis lain yang menawarkan karir sama baiknya dengan jenis KKKS dengan cara
masuk yang lebih mudah.

2. Pelamar tidak tahu apa saja posisi yang bisa ia lamar sesuai bidang studinya dan apa
persyaratannya. Bila hal ini ia ketahui sejak mahasiswa, ia akan menyiapkan
kemampuan teknikal melalui kursus-kursus keahlian migas yang relevan dan giat
melatih softskillnya.

3. Minimnya database mengenai alamat perusahaan-perusahaan Migas di Indonesia

sehingga ia tidak tahu kemana lagi harus melamar selain Chevron, Total, Conocophillips,
Shell, BP, Schlumberger & Halliburton.

Informasi dalam buku ini disusun berdasar 13 tahun pengalaman penulis bekerja di bidang Migas,
melatih lebih dari 5000 insinyur muda dalam keahlian Migas, mengumpulkan ratusan tulisan dari
berbagai sumber serta masukan dari kolega penulis. Ada juga penulis beli beberapa website berbayar
penyedia informasi Migas (membership $300/tahun) sehingga anda tidak perlu mengeluarkan biaya
mahal untuk mendapatkan informasi tersebut.

Harapan penulis, semoga informasi yang saya tulis dapat membuka wawasan Anda mengenai karir
Migas, mengetahui 'tingkat kesiapan Anda saat ini' dan menyusun strategi lebih baik guna menembus
karir Migas.
