Work to live, or live to work? Working amount of time you spend with work and Past and Present Conference in London hard, getting the job done, and having the amount of time you spend in leisurely in 1964, and, since then, the concept of a fulfilled life at home--can we really pursuits, where leisure is everything the sociology of work and leisure has have it all? In management as an attempt to formulate technology (IT)" era of the 1960s and addition, what impact does separation working conditions that maximized 1970s. In the pre-IT era, the separation between work and leisure have on our productivity for industrial companies. In today's society, among those posed to participants in The to realize that different societies have it becomes more difficult to separate Way Ahead's global survey in an attempt different perceptions about what a the worksite and the home because we to investigate and contrast work/life suitable work/life balance is. As workers and compared with other industries. Work/life balance is a concept that of work and leisure, worker productivity, Smartphones, remote server access, significantly affects the health and and management philosophy. Thomas tablets, phone apps, and email are all happiness of one's life. The concept rests presented his research (Work and Leisure examples of ways by which we can stay on your agenda for demarcating the in Pre-Industrial Society) at the seventh connected with work. It also rests with the individual, 20% with the To find out how the oil and gas industry highlights a risk young professionals in the supervisor, 34% with the employer, and fares in relation to work/life balance, oil and gas industry face today, because 7% with the government.

Discover a Career - Apacheโs George E. King talks about well completions engineering. Well completions engineering is very likely the junction point of every other technical discipline in the oil industry. Feed-ins from geosciences and drilling must be balanced with predictions from reservoir engineering and requirements from production to deliver a fit-for-purpose well design. All this must be contained in a package that retains sufficient flexibility to handle life-of-well changes while retaining well integrity beyond the designed life of the well. Expected well life may range from a few years in deep water to more than 70 years in tight gas applications. Conditions range from the pressure and temperature fluctuations of ultradeep water to those of long horizontals and 20- to 50-multistage-fracture stimulations in shale oil and gas completions. The extremes of pressure and temperature are continually increasing, and environmental requirements are a moving target. Because of the engineering complexity involved, completions engineering is where a large amount of new technology enters the industry. If you are interested in engineering challenges, then take a closer look at well completions engineering.
Tech 101 - Petroleum engineering has both led and lagged behind developments in hardware and software compared with other industries. Since the emergence of modern reservoir simulators in the late 1970s, it has led in the efficient implementation of sparse matrix algebra and the solution of partial differential equations. It was also at the forefront of developing applications using high-performance computers such as the Cray.

J. Michael Yeager, chief executive officer of BHP Billiton Petroleum, heads the global petroleum business for BHP Billiton. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, BHP Billiton Petroleum is one of the world's largest independent oil and gas companies and has exploration, development, production, and marketing activities in more than a dozen countries around the globe, including a significant deepwater position in the Gulf of Mexico and operations in Australia, the United Kingdom, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. During 2011, under Yeager's direction, BHP Billiton Petroleum acquired major holdings in four of the top shale basins in the United States, which are making material contributions to the growth and diversification of the company's oil and gas portfolio. In addition to the company's sizable offshore assets, these world-class resources are excellent strategic fits, with large, long-life, low-cost reserves and significant future development potential. Before joining BHP Billiton in April 2006, Yeager had a long career with Mobil and ExxonMobil.

What's Ahead - Comments on benchmarking. There is no business like the oil business! We are very fortunate to be working in oil and gas. I believe it is the best industry in the world and that there is no better time than now for YPs in oil and gas to develop their careers. However, this issue of TWA is not about self-promotion; we started planning our content with the vision of benchmarking our industry. Essentially, we wanted to know what we do differently and what we can learn from other industries to become even better. There is the old story of a guy who asks a friend, โWhat is the most profitable business in the world?โ The friend answers, โThe most profitable business in the world is a well-managed oil company.โ The guy asks again, โWhat about the second most profitable?โ The friend answers, โA poorly managed oil company.โ This story, which I first heard some 20 years ago, is a reflection of the single most important fact keeping our industry from making an improvement breakthrough: There is not enough drive to generate a major change. The funny thing is that this story is no longer true. Nowadays, there are other industries that are as profitable and valuable as ours; and, as we all know, the economic reality of most emerging hydrocarbon sources (shale, deep water, heavy oil, etc.) is that they will not be profitable without greater efficiency in delivery. The driver for change is now looming on the horizon. There is no more easy oil being discovered, other competing energy sources are being developed at a faster pace, and we face a workforce shortage fueled by the โBig Crew Change.โ
This figure enjoyable can be a challenge. In the oil and gas industry, people are Experienced or not, employees' our most important asset. Are You One of Them? That is why a fair and standard market, a company's ability to hire talent organization's communication salary placement is critical, on the one and retain experienced employees is strategy and philosophy with regard hand, to retain employees and, on the vital for its future. But the company's to its employees, extended audience, other, to maintain a motivating work future is not the only factor here.
Academia - Explore the win-win partnership that exists between academia and independents. Independents play an important role in the oil and gas industry. They specialize in unconventional field development and are largely credited with the shale gas boom that has occurred in the US. Despite this success, they differ from the large, integrated majors in that they usually have limited or no research and development (R&D) capability. In order to remain competitive, independents commonly rely on academia to meet this need. This article presents three important R&D realms that demonstrate good collaborative efforts between independents and academic research institutions. Pilot EOR Operations One key area for independents in North America is mature field development whose aim is to extract the proven residual oil trapped in these reservoirs. Independents acquire mature assets primarily from major exploration and production (E&P) companies once the majors start viewing them as marginal or economically unattractive. Independents tend to view mature fields as attractive because, as smaller companies, they typically have more efficient operating structures with lower overhead, and are more willing to deploy advanced and emerging technologies. Several mature onshore fields, such as Yates in Texas and Salem in Illinois, are good examples of these acquisitions.
