Petra Resources Sdn. Bhd.

I'm sorry for the lack of updates these few days. I have been working since last Tuesday from Mondays to Saturdays and from 8a.m. to 5p.m. except for Saturdays. I only have to work half day on Saturdays.

By the way, my 100th posts dedicated to PETRA Resources Sdn. Bhd., my industrial training company.

PETRA Resources Sdn. Bhd.

PETRA is dealing with locally manufactured parts and rotating equipment and provision of maintenance services for the oil and gas, petrochemical and energy industries.

Some of the valves for servicing.

These are some of the parts for maintenance. This is the best thing about industrial training. You get to see the stuff which you can only see in textbooks.

First day to the company, I don't know what tasks I will be assigned to. So, to be handsome polite I dressed a short sleeves shirt and a pair of trousers. Just a normal set of office wear.

Professional, right? :P

Since I'm a FUTURE mechanical engineer, I am assigned to the workshop department. I have to work together with the other technicians in the workshop. I am quite relieved actually when I was told that I have to work in the workshop. If I was to work in a design department, with all the Computer Aided Design (CAD) softwares, I might faint anytime. I don't like anything to do with design, frankly speaking.

I was given a set of workshop wear by the company which consists of two pairs of coverall, a pair of safety boots, and a pair of safety goggles. All FREE!

Family and friends have been asking me how much allowance is given by PETRA. To be honest, I don't know. But for me, that's not the most important. The most important is that I get to obtain experience and learn something from the more experience technicians and engineers.

Three months to keep me busy...
