Abstract

As major suppliers within the global energy mix, companies within the oil and gas industry need geographers, earth and environment scientists to carry out critical roles throughout the activities that make up the industry’s lifecycle, from exploration, through production, to ultimately the decommissioning of installations. This paper explores the range of opportunities for GEES graduates to apply their knowledge and skills, not only in oil and gas contexts, but also to show the cross-over into wind and wave energy that have comparable require-ments. It is based on the presentation delivered, and subsequent discussion at the GEES Subject Centre Conference, July 2008, themed on employ-ability, employer engagement and enterprise. The majority of questions from the floor were focussed on the how GEES graduates ‘fit’ into the Oil and Gas Industry.
