Is it worth it?
welli I like Maths and petrol (the smell of it) and it sounds cool. I'd also like to be rich.
but seriously is it worth it? I don't want to live in the middle of nowhere as well.

Any help please. Cheers guys.

dat petrol nice and fresh. Are you Aboriginal?

Yeah totally worth it, the petrol companies probably have offices in cities so you don't have to live next to an oilfield.

Petroleum engineers will be in demand soon enough with the advent of large scale CSG developments in Australia.

Ask Sir-R-Sole. I congratulated him on his choice of Petroleum Engg. I believe the job prospects & $$$ are great.

Don't know what his views are at the moment.

By the way, Mr Kebab: good to see you are also doing Ext maths, Physics and Chem. All the subjects you need for the course. And Eco too is relevant in the oil industry - high risk(financial), high capital cost etc - in my humble view.
