OIL & GAS


Market overview
The job market within the oil and gas sector performed positively over the last 12 months, largely driven by the fact that it is a key industry within Singapore and South East Asia. Singapore has established itself as a hub for the oil and gas industry, which now accounts for about 5% of the countrys GDP. It also has a strong downstream sector and is a leading producer of rigs and floating prodction storage and offloading (FPSO) conversions. In addition, Singapore is home to many of the worlds major oil companies, equipment manufacturers, offshore service providers and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) organisations, and all of these companies are seeking specialist oil and gas professionals. Subsea Specialists were in high demand over the past year, due to the requirement for skilled professionals to assist in the quest for harder-to-reach oil and gas reserves. Business Development Managers were also in demand as existing oil and gas manufacturing and oilfield service companies expanded their operations or built new facilities in Singapore, or new companies set up commercial offices in the country. Hiring activity is currently steady across the oil and gas market as the need for talented professionals is a focus for many companies across the region. However, due to the increase in talented oil and gas professionals in the region, expat packages are now very rare and the preference is for local candidates. Professionals with safety and quality experience are currently highly sought-after to help companies meet the high demands and strict safety and quality regulations in the oil and gas industry. Project management professionals (PMP) are also required to manage high value and complex projects, as are Project Engineers with the technical knowledge required for specific projects. Professionals in positions such as Quality, Health, Safety and Environment Managers, Project Managers/ Engineers, Process Engineers, Subsea Specialists and Project Controls are in the highest demand. Experience is sought at all levels due to the ever increasing focus on the oil and gas sector in South East Asia. Average salary increases for oil and gas professionals over the coming year are expected to be between 10% and 15% for employees changing companies and around a 5% increase for those staying with their current employer. Above average salary increases will be driven by employer demand, and offered to professionals that possess skills in highest demand. Employers will look at bonuses as an employee retention tool, in particular the Annual Wage Supplement plus variable bonus components. Continued recruitment activity is anticipated within the oil and gas sector over the coming year due to the maintained focus on the Asian market from global oil and gas companies. Demand will be strong for professionals across all areas of the oil and gas sector and at all levels. The challenge for most companies moving forward will be the battle to attract the best talent from the limited pool of oil and gas candidates available in the region at the right price. The influence from China will also impact the market moving forward as the country continues to increase its competence in providing services to the oil and gas market across the broader Asia region. To secure talent, companies will continue to offer attractive remuneration packages, especially when winning new projects, and will also look at offering more incentives and career development frameworks to retain their best people.
