Welcome Fellow Bloggers to RRR(Raag,Reel and Rig)
Why RRR?
4 simple reasons:-
1.)We love Petroleum(I hope so,Chintan r u listenin????)
2.)We love Movies(atleast our broadband bills suggest that!!!!!)
3.)We love Music(Ya v do,Chintan loves it d most :-D)
4.)We love to OPINE(express opinions) and to argue!!!!!!
Now ,this is your chance to debate and share new things. This is the new 'happening' place to vent your anger, express joy and blah blah blah..........
RIP Facebook coz RRR is here :p:p:p:p!!!!!!!!
On a serious 2nd 'NOTE'
Before joining PDPU many people told me that petroleum would limit your career options.
I beg to differ from their opinion , in just 2 semesters I have realised that our industry is so vast that maybe even in 50 lifetimes we wouldn't be able to cover all the aspects.
Right from Geophysics,Geology,Exploration,Seismic Engineering,Earth Science,Chemical Engineering,Electrical,Mechanical,Instrumentation and Control,Drilling,Production,Transportation,Refining,the vast realm of petrochemicals, the management side to all the above, the marketing,the branding ,the challenging field of Reservoir Engineering and what not............
Petroleum Engineering is a bloody vast field..........
That kaka who told me that it is not is surely not an O&G person as our dear sir Vinay Babu calls.
Neways, so guys ,the road up ahead is challenging, but it can be fun.
One more point, as pointed by many experienced professionals(not necessarily O&G persons) and who also happen to be parents of our classmates have told that in any Petroleum Engi. course ,no prof is going to go in the 'real' depth of the subject topic , and now after experiencing 2 sems u sure wud agree:-D!!!!!!!
So guys, we hve 2 paths, either to crib about this stuff like most of our batchmates , or to really do something abt it.......
Ok as im d only one online nw, on behalf of our group i chose d 2nd path!!!!!!!!!
congrats to all of us!!!!!!
Ok.
Now what exactly do v do?
Simple, we use our respective strengths to unravel the mysteries of our field.
1.)Chintan Verma-Superb brain(though hyper!!), superb use of the internet
2.)Harshil-Dad in the industry, 1st hand knowledge,plus he becomes our middle east correspondence and also our dunkin donuts supplier(until they open one in ahmedabad,india me they r launching soon )
3.)Rohan-Known to give good ideas(like this one), inquisitive mind who has explored the field outside the classroom a bit(no EARTH SCIENCE DOUBTS WILL BE ENTERTAINED IN NE CASE)
4.)Casa-Good brain and a potential information gathering system
We start from the basics. We share all the knowledge that we have got till date(Revise ur IPE notes if u want) , cement our fundamentals and then go for the challenging fields.
General Awareness is very important in our field, everyday u hve news of sme discovery and something and something........
We need to be updated.
Also the industry shares a strong relationship with money,power and politics, we need to explore that angle too.
Sparing half an hour for the things you love shudn't be hard na????
Ok enough for now.
For movies and music, it aint that complicated , we discuss the nuances of filmaking, share new things, technical and non technical with each other, review movies, discuss potential plots, discuss new songs and so on and so forth................
Thank you for being part of this blog, look forward a great journey.....
(Hope this blog helps us in the interviews we would be facing after 6th semester)
Enjoy!!!!!

ReplyDeleteThank you Mr. Desai for an awesome introductory post. I was overwhelmed by ur notes about me. I am sure there is more than Dunkin Donuts that I can contribute. And about the first hand experience thing, its simply an honour, yes guys its an HONOUR to have your dad in the petro sector... I gain extra knowledge as my dad is the Project Manager and keeps my knowledge about the functioning of the industry and the sort of pressures in which the target( yeah, "work" is too small a word to be used in this place)... target is such that the whole project for 4 years is planned out on the timeline of a month, ie right from ordering the materials to which nut is fitted in, at what time and at what location is planned out on a PAPER.... yup guys heard it right.... even RJD, Chintan and Casa dont know about this... So a bit of a surprise a week before the end sem exams...
