[iagi-net-l] Oil geologists are hot commodities
Sekedar sharing info dari AAPG home page. Sepertinya saat ini pun di Indonesia terjadi seperti ini yah ?? mudah-mudahan, sehingga membuka peluang yang bagus bagi rekan-rekan fresh graduates geologist yang ingin berkarier di oil co. Thanks. Salam, Edot RECRUITING Oil geologists are hot commodities Energy giants scramble to attract their expertise By LYNN J. COOK Copyright 2006 Houston Chronicle At first blush, this week's meeting of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists seems like a standard industry conference filled with talking heads and geek-speak. But beneath the surface at the George R. Brown Convention Center, a veritable job fair has emerged for the scientists who ferret out oil and natural gas. To keep the world's oil taps turned on, energy companies are in a race to find more fossil fuels. That means the petroleum geologists who scout the stuff are hot commodities, demanding pay increases and often jumping ship for better offers, more stock options and fat bonus checks. We have yet to hire half of the geoscientists we will need to run the company in 2015, Tim Cejka, president of Exxon Mobil Exploration, told a lunchtime audience. Last year, the average petroleum geologist earned 16 percent more than in 2004, according to a recent survey by Tulsa's MLA Resources, which conducts the annual study for the association. Typical young graduates are landing an average $74,400 a year to start. Industry veterans with at least 25 years of experience are pulling down an average $134,100 a year, but many draw salaries of $200,000 or more, according to the survey. Charles Taylor, vice president of technical headhunting firm TIG First Source, said with so few unemployed people in the energy industry, companies are pilfering each other's personnel. They're happy. They're in a six-figure job already. They're not on the Internet looking. A search firm like ours has to tap them on the shoulder, he said. Wanted: Young folks It's a far cry from 20 years ago, when energy outfits were casting off these highly skilled professionals like so many used up drill bits. The energy industry's history of relentlessly chopping their roster of talent over the last two decades has had a compounding effect and has come back in the form of one major headache. As a group, petroleum geologists, like so many other technical professionals inside the energy industry, are getting older just as the hunt for more oil and gas is reaching a new level of intensity. Worse, the supply of eager young professionals going into the business is limited. Options preferred Andrew Petter, a doctoral candidate in geology at the University of Texas in Austin who's attending the conference in Houston this week said he's been approached by several midsize energy companies that have encouraged him to sign a letter of intent to come work for them when he graduates. But Petter has another 2 1/2 years of full-time course work to complete before his degree. I'd prefer to have all my options on the table, said Petter, who's thinking about his next internship, not a full-time job. War for talent With so much money on the table for newbies, salary compression can quickly disgruntle professionals who have been putting in their time for 10 or 20 years, warned Mark Anderson, president of Norwalk, Conn.-based ExecuNet. There's a war for talent, and if companies don't address this now and on an ongoing basis, they'll lose good people because they haven't treated them adequately, he said, adding that most people don't leave jobs for money alone. Feeling unappreciated and like they've hit a wall in terms of career development also contribute. Moving quickly Recruiters working for major and midsize oil companies - from Kerr-McGee to Saudi Aramco - are trolling the floors in the hopes of luring qualified geologists and geophysicists to their own 3-D visualization and modeling labs. Ceri Powell, Shell's vice president of exploration in the Middle East, Caspian and South Asia, said her company is trying to band together the highly segmented geologists, geophysicists and reservoir engineers to make new discoveries in record time and wring more out of older fields. Energy companies are used to thinking in geologic time, but Powell said now time is of the essence. For example, Shell has been exploring for oil and gas in Oman for more than 40 years - and with a lot of success. But new exploration contracts in Libya were granted for just seven years. It just highlights the need to work faster and smarter, she said.

Kamis, 13 April 2006 - 11:38 WIB Mulai Rabu (12/4/06) Pukul 15:00 Status Gunung Merapi Ditingkatkan Menjadi Siaga Status Gunungapi Merapi terhitung sejak tanggal 12 April 2006 pukul 15:00 WIB ditingkatkan dari Waspada menjadi Siaga. Masyarakat diminta untuk tidak melakukan kegiatan di badan-badan sungai yang berhulu di Gunung Merapi dalam radius hingga 8 kilometer dari puncak Gunung Merapi dan yang masuk dalam Kawasan Rawan Bencana (KRB) III berdasarkan peta KRB G. Merapi Tahun 2002. Demikian disampaikan oleh Kepala Badan Geologi, Ir. Bambang Dwiyanto, sehubungan dengan meningkatnya kegiatan gunung Merapi dalam beberapa hari terakhir yang diperkirakan dapat menuju ke kejadian letusan. Selain itu, Kepala Badan Geologi juga merekomendasikan agar para penambang pasir tidak melakukan kegiatan penambangan dalam radius 8 km dari puncak G. Merapi dan yang masuk dalam KRB IIIG. Merapi. Masyarakat dan juga para wisatawan juga untuk sementara tidak melakukan pendakian ke puncak G. Merapi. Untuk megantisipasi berbagai kemungkinan menyusul meningkatnya aktifitas Gunung Merapi, Pemerintah Kabupaten di sekitar G. Merapi perlu mempersiapkan segala sesuatu yang terkait dengan mitigasi bencana akibat letusan G. Merapi. -- First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

[iagi-net-l] Air botol dan Geologiawan Air-Tanah
Rekan-rekan IAGI,
Di Amerika Serikat, istilah-istilah yang berkaitan dengan air botol seperti
yang dicamtumkan oleh rekan Rovicky Dwi Putrohari, mempunyai nilai uang.
Soalnya istilah- istilah air mineral, air artesis, air sumber (spring water)
dsb. sudah diatur oleh Kantor Urusan Makanan dan Obat (Food and Drug
Administration), sehingga harga air botol yang menggunakan cap seperti air
mineral, air sumber, mempuunyai harga yang berlainan.
Kecuali itu, penggunakan cap-cap tadi juga harus dipastikan oleh geologiawan
yang bertitiel Geologiawan Profesional (P.G. = Professional Geologist, yang
harus lulus ujian negara). Disamping itu macam-macam analisa kimia (kekerasan,
radiometri, bakteri dsb.) harus dilakukan di laboratorium yang sudah terdaftar.
Ya, banyaklah peraturan-peraturan yang tujuannya antara lain unutk melindungi
masyarakat dan juga untuk memperkuat daya saing bagi si penjual air.
Biasanya, hanyalah perusahaan-perusahaan air yang besar yang mempunyai staf
geologiawan. Sebagai konsultant paruh-waktu, pekerjaan saya yalah mengerjakan
penyelidikan air tanah (untuk minuman atau persoalan lingkungan) dan menentukan
tempat pengeboran. Jadi disamping jadi kuli ataupun mandor, saya harus juga
menulis laporan geologi air tanah untuk diserahkan kepada pemerintah (propinsi
ataupun pusat).
Bagi rekan rekan IAGI, yang menaruh perhatian dalam geologi air tanah (ataupun
geologi lingkungan) kecuali geologi minyak, marilah kita mulai bertukar pikiran
tentang masalah geologi tsb. Seperti mas Sudjatmiko (Mang Okim) yang mulai
kariernya di bidang minyak, dia menjadi pakar batu mulia di Indonesia, dengan
keberanian melintas batas pendidikn formil dia. Banyaklah jalan menuju ke
Roma.
(sebagai kecapnya dan umuk {kata orang Jawa}, saya lulusan Tambang ITB (1961),
macam-macam pekerjaan, bahkan bekerja sebagai geologiawan riset dalam geologi
minyak di perusahaan minyak terbesar di A.S. di Houston, 25 tahun yang lalu
{yang kalau nggak salah namanya mulai dengan huruf E, perusahaan yang sudah
masuk di Cepu!}, sekarang cari hidup di Atlanta menangani persoalan pencemaran
tanah dan air-tanah termasuk remediasi-nya).

Subject: Re: [iagi-net-l] Aqua Geologist
Di Indonesia saya belum tahu ada yg memproduksi AIR MINERAL atau
MINERAL WATER. Ini berbeda dengan drinking water (tap water). menurut
saya AQUA masih sekelas drinking water. Nah tentunya mineral water ini
akan memerlukan geologist kalau saja mineral-mineral tertentu
diperlukan dalam kandungannya.
Jenis-jenis bottled waterpun bermacam-macam saya cuplik dari website :
Bottled Water Types
What are the different types of bottled water?
There are several different varieties of bottled water. The product
may be labeled as bottled water, drinking water or any of the
following terms. The Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) product
definitions for bottled water are:
Artesian Water / Artesian Well Water: Bottled water from a well that
taps a confined aquifer (a water-bearing underground layer of rock or
sand) in which the water level stands at some height above the top of
the aquifer.
Drinking Water: Drinking water is another name for bottled water.
Accordingly, drinking water is water that is sold for human
consumption in sanitary containers and contains no added sweeteners or
chemical additives (other than flavors, extracts or essences). It must
be calorie-free and sugar-free. Flavors, extracts or essences may be
added to drinking water, but they must comprise less than
one-percent-by-weight of the final product or the product will be
considered a soft drink. Drinking water may be sodium-free or contain
very low amounts of sodium.
Mineral Water: Bottled water containing not less than 250 parts per
million total dissolved solids may be labeled as mineral water.
Mineral water is distinguished from other types of bottled water by
its constant level and relative proportions of mineral and trace
elements at the point of emergence from the source. No minerals can be
added to this product.
Purified Water: Water that has been produced by distillation,
deionization, reverse osmosis or other suitable processes and that
meets the definition of purified water in the United States
Pharmacopoeia may be labeled as purified bottled water. Other suitable
product names for bottled water treated by one of the above processes
may include distilled water if it is produced by distillation,
deionized water if the water is produced by deionization, or
reverse osmosis water if the process used is reverse osmosis.
Alternatively _ drinking water can be used with the
blank being filled in with one of the terms defined in this paragraph
(e.g. purified drinking water or distilled drinking water).
