Abstract
With an increase in salaries, benefits and conditions, 2012 was good to many in the oil and gas sector. The same cannot be said for other industries and it would not be stretching the truth to say more wealth has been created in this industry than in any other during the past 12 months. With nearly every country around the world striving to secure its own energy future—either through exploration, increased production, or developing infrastructure—demand for the oil and gas professional, in all its guises, was most definitely rising.
With this in mind, specialist recruiter Hays Oil & Gas has once again collaborated with world-leading oil and gas job board Oil and Gas Job Search to create the global guide to remuneration and employment in the industry. The 2012 Hays Oil & Gas Salary Guide was enormously well received, with a readership of more than 250,000 worldwide, in print and digital form. This year, more than 25,000 have taken the survey and the results will once again reflect the many events, trends and developments that shape the oil and gas industry’s dynamic employment landscape.
In its fourth year, the guide serves as a reference for recruitment and employment trends in the global oil and gas industry and is invaluable to decision makers seeking to embark on recruitment from overseas locations.
This extended abstract references Australian statistics, showing evidence of these throughout the survey results, and their implications to Australian employers.
