About You
The BP wells discovery was very well planned and i learned a lot about being a drilling engineer.
Very valued as the global director of rig engineering and UK head of grad recruitment were there, even though there was only about 20 西瓜视频s.
All my questions about the industry were answered.
As it was a discovery day I didn't develop skills, but now have a better understanding of well engineering,
The Company
Very well structured
All the bp employees I met were very relaxed and enjoyed talking with us. Many said they very much enjoy working with interns.
If I were to work as a drilling engineer, all drilling licenses and offshore survival training would be paid for by bp.
I now know what it would be like to be a drilling engineer at bp as we spoke to many drilling/completion engineers and graduates who also explained a typical day at the office or on the rig.
Everyone on a BP site around the world must hold handrails while walking up or down stairs as if you're on a rig. They made us do it as well, so i would say that safety is always their top priority!
I would now very much consider becoming a drilling engineer.
Everything Else
Before attending we were given information on how to book travel to the event. I know that many even took flights to Heathrow from within the UK or stayed overnight at a nearby holiday inn so bp was investing heavily in us undergrads.
Yes, many senior drilling engineers/ graduates were there. There was also staff from bp international.
We ate lunch with the global rig director, so very good.
I think there are some but these weren't mentioned.
Yes
