I notice that many of my readers are searching for opportunities in Kerteh, especially in the oil and gas sector. One such opportunity is with the Terengganu Crude Oil Terminal (TCOT), as the operatorship is being taken over by PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd (anyone remember when they were all housed in Wisma Peladang? Anyone remember Wisma Peladang?). My original post is here.
Anyhoo, If you think you have the appropriate experience and would like to work with Malaysia’s national oil company, you may contact the PCSB PMO (I think) HR Department. Please call the HR Department at 09 866 77 22 and request for Awang Zul or Lala. I suspect PCSB is looking for technicians and engineers.
Please refer back to my blog. Maybe I’ll get a few Imperial credits out of it.

hmmm, readers are flogging to Kerteh? that’s interesting…. no! that’s suspicious…..
is there any other crime boss operating out of there? you know, there are other hutts in the crime family, and i am always worry if someone is trying to outdo me.
I’m getting soft as i age… that’s bad.

i would like to apply any vacancy in TCOT, especially in procurement or document preparing or controlling. I’m willing to travel depend on my job scopes. i have 1 year experienced in shipping as a boarding officer and holded diploma in maritime management. also able to produce my view relating cargo and shipping operation. Please do not hesitate to call or e mail me, if there is any vacant in any department.
December 14, 2008 at 2:30 pm |
Shamsul, with a donation I’ll forward your CV to people I know at TCOT.
December 14, 2008 at 4:46 pm |
Hahahaa, you think people will let you join procurement?
Procurement is a department were everyone gets something from a vendor. I’ve know things from a free meal every week all the way to a expensive family holiday.
Everyone in town loves to be in procurement, and with a marine diploma, it won’t work. The best you can do is becoming a document control (even that, Jabba has also rejected at least hundreds of people wanting to be doc con unless they know the procedure. I fired my doccon/admin staff that has a degree in engineering, i wonder…..)
Gook Luck
December 14, 2008 at 6:01 pm |
Jabba, I had that train of thought as well, but your picture paints it in a much more interesting light. Maybe I should be apply to procurement…
December 14, 2008 at 6:32 pm |
yeah, i know.
its like when the government says the requirement for pengarah jabatan kewangan should be a degree holder, even a 22 yrs old degree from university of chowkit wants to apply.
Again, O&G, minimum degree. if you have diploma, try night school and upgrade, or you will be stuck as a technician (kuli).

Dear sir..
isn’t CUF kertih is a part from PCSB?I still trying to be there and had used many alternative including you.mr wata…by the way,isn’t TCOT link with CUF or it had own facilities?
Thank you.
December 15, 2008 at 2:53 pm |
Fadzli: Please do some homework. CUF is not part of PCSB. It’s owned by PETRONAS Gas. It supplies some utilities to the neighbouring PETRONAS related plants, esp. cooling water and steam.
TCOT does not utilise CUF. Check out this article.

Thanks for article…to mr wata…happy new year and awal muharram.
April 29, 2009 at 2:42 pm |
To Mr wata,
I now work as sales engineer for pump. I have 1 year experience on that. Could you suggest to me what is the best position for me to apply in Oil&Gas industry?
April 29, 2009 at 3:12 pm |
jere: Apply for whatever you wish for. 1 years experience is nothing. You will be hired as a graduate engineer.
May 2, 2009 at 11:36 pm |
to be useful, work for at least 5 years in a proper position, i.e. not sales.
May 12, 2009 at 3:53 pm |
assalamualikum & salam sejahtera,
Dear Sifu / Otai,
I have almost 3 years work experience staring from draughting to construction M&E Engineer right now.
With these experiences, am i able to join the O&G industry?
I miss my turtle state hometown and wish to work there
May 12, 2009 at 9:57 pm |
airil anuar: have you tried to contact the local engineering O&G firms in terengganu? Off the top of my head, I can name 3, and that excludes operators.
June 20, 2009 at 7:46 pm |
are there any opportunity for fresh graduate?(chemical engineering).
June 20, 2009 at 7:54 pm |
shiraz: sigh, please read the article, I think the word ‘experience’ is in there. As for other Kerteh opportunities, donate to my blog, and I’ll see if they want your CV next time I’m down there.
July 16, 2009 at 9:59 am |
i like u very much….jabbathehutt.
look at this blog..80% are idiot although they claim they are graduate and coming from a big name of university. are those university starting to produce a clown in the market ???
July 17, 2009 at 9:05 pm |
Hi KP.
Its a vicious cycle. The first generation clowns become lecturers and train second generation clowns (which are not funnier than the first). and so on…. until by the time it hits the fifth generation clown, the country is run by very un-funny clowns.

jabbathehut: you been reading Terry Pratchett lately?
August 2, 2009 at 1:31 am
Surreal description on Terry Pratchett’s work.
Reminds me of Decartes’ philosophy.

nurul: salam. Probably. Try MECIP, Steamline, MMC, Technip, LIMA, Siemens. You should be able to get a list of all the service companies in Kerteh.
September 24, 2009 at 4:40 pm |

Messi: I would try and apply to companies that have branch offices in Kerteh and state your preference that you want to move their. My experience is that those companies have difficulties in Kerteh placements, as it’s considered a one horse town (I agree) and may give you an edge. Try SGS for example. I don’t have any ties with those companies.
October 1, 2009 at 8:46 pm |

amir: I am not looking for a welder. You’re looking in the wrong place.
October 11, 2009 at 10:25 pm |
chemist and welders.
i think you’re starting to attract shady characters. probably need to stop hanging out at the seedier places.
October 12, 2009 at 7:58 pm |
Jabba: Do you mean I need to
start
hanging out at the seedier places?
