Power generation Plant operator

Patulong naman po.. I am licensed Mechanical Engineer pero ang work experience ko is Power plant Operation specifically is Gas turbine and Combined Cycle plant operator. Kaso di ko alam kung saan licensing authority ako mag aaply Engineers Australia or Trades Recognition Australia? Ang alam ko ang required na bandscore for IELTS sa Engineers Australia is 6 pero sa Trades Recognition Australia hindi na yata required ang exam. Alin po ba mas mdali sa dalawa? Gusto ko po mag migrate sa Australia kasama ang family ko. Nurse naman ang asawa ko.

    @Laichard021614 down ang oz ngayon...down ang mining...hirap makakuha ng work as power plant operator dito...need certain certificates and trades na mula dito sa Australia...but since singapore ka at commonwealth government naman, same as Oz...baka accredited na agad ung sayo...

    gawa ka na CDR...then apply-apply ka na rin while andyan ka pa sa Sg...apply ka using seek.com.au baka swertehin ka at ma-hire ka agad while offshore ka pa...it happens...

    @Laichard021614 ay yung family benefit pala, makakakuha na...but dont depend on that...ang pinaka mahalaga e magkaroon na agad kayo work dito bago pa man kayo dumating para mas maganda...though makakahanap na rin naman agad kayo...basta baon lang kayo ng extra income na good for 2 to 3 months at napakaraming dasal.. :-)

    ***my thoughts, dont stick sa power generation job...though rewarding ung career path na un, mahirap nga lang ma-penetrate...since ME ka naman, im pretty sure na may makukuha kang job dito at kahit paano e in-demand pa rin naman tayo dito... :-)

    @dhey_almighty, mey tanong lang po ako, u were assessed by EA as mech engr even f COntrol room operator yung job mo, tama po ba? how about the time na u r seeking for a job dyan sa Oz, as control room operator ka ba nag apply or as mech engr? mey doubts kc ako. i have 2 degrees ECE, and EE but like you, working as CRO din sa geothermal combined cycle power plant nga lang. i have no experience being an ECE or EE kahit licensed engr ako. 9 yrs na ako as power plant operator.
    ano po pala update nyo ngayon regarding sa work mo? napenetrate nyo na po ba ang oil&gas? TIA sa reply ;)

    @skeed101 hello kabayan

    currently working na ako as CRO sa bagong plant dito sa WA, bale advance waste management biogas ang plant namin...liit lang siya 0.8 MW lang at currently under commissioning...

    regarding sa question mo about either Mechanical Engineer or CRO ang inaaplyan ko...both...apply lang ako ng apply thru seek.com.au

    if Mechanical Engineer ang open position, binabago ko yung CV ko to a more solid Mechanical engineering experience having an experience before as a facilities engineer and project engineer before...pero mas solid sa power generation...

    mahirap ang magapply ng position ng Engineer dito sa Oz, kase nga mas gusto ng mga companies and recruiters e dito ka graduate ng Engineer though may iba na lucky or talagang magaling sila or talagang solid ang experience nila being an Engineer kaya nahihire sila...pero minsan engineer nga ang position mo at malaki nga ang sahod mo pero minsan e contract base ka lang...meaning minsan e 6 months project lang or 1 year project lang...which is not bad na rin naman pero `yung nga temporary lang at lipat ka na ulet ng ibang company...which minsan e mapapaisip ka rin like me, kase nga what if matapos na ung current contract mo sa isang certain company e settled ka na sa tinitirhan mo so lilipat ka ng ibang company pero malayo sa tinitirhan mo...you have to adjust again...so mas prefer ko na ung current situation ko na long term... so to speak and hopefully hehe

    about naman dun sa next question mo, yung nagaapply pa lang ako ng PR visa at gumagawa ng CDR, may mga certain episodes ako na nilagay about being a Mechanical
    Engineer at isang episodes din nang pagiging CRO... pero assessed ako ng EA as Professional Engineer...for visa application purposes...

    **before commissioning supervisor ako then naging CRO na kase mas challenging ang maging CRO.... :-)

    ***irregardless na yang pagiging engineer mo pagdating mo dito sa Oz brad...pagdating mo dito as PR e talagang back to zero ka...companies here really dont care about your degree in the Philippines...mas prefer nila na dito ka nakakuha ng degree mo...pero syempre meron naman na talaga swerte at mapapalad na nakakuha ng engineering jobs dito as i mentioned...

    about naman dun sa question mo kung na-penetrate ko na ba ang O&G dito sa Australia...goodluck sa akin...ahaha

    madami sila requirement brad...kelangan meron kang at least Cert 4 ng process technology na dito mo kinuha...tapos mga certain tickets na dito mo rin na-obtain...like working @ heights, confined space entry, Elevated Platform work, constuction white card, gas testing, at kung ano-ano pa...

    then kung sa power plant ka naman magaapply dito, super dami rin nilang requirement like A Grade Electrical license to name a few...

    to give you a rough estimate ng mga certifcates dito....ang cert 4 ng process technology e nasa aroud 4500 AUD at yung A grade naman e nasa 7K yata..hinde ko lang din sure...then ung mga tickets naman e ranging from 200 AUD to 500 AUD per ticket...

    luckily though yung company ko now e sila yung nagbayad ng working @ heights at confined space entry ko since requirement yun ng batas dito sa Australia...

    kung nagaapply ka pa lang ng PR brad, gandahan mo na lang ung CDR mo at yung 9 years mong experience sa power plant e solid na un...either Plant Engineer or Production Engineer ang kunin mong job code...pasok ka na dun...

    kung may question ka pa, feeel free to post or send me a pm and will try to help you out...

    cheers

    @dhey_almighty thank you so much for your reply. I really appreciate it. You are very helpful. I also enjoyed reading it kahit na medyo mahaba. heheheh.

    I am getting a clearer picture now unlike before na vague tlaga. You are very lucky nman pala na you landed on a job as a CRO. Before talaga hindi ako decided whether sa EA ako magpa assess as Plant Engineer or sa TRA sa Power Plant Operator. I am thinking na it would give me a greater chance of getting a positive assessment sa EA since Plant Operations Engineer nman tlaga ang nakalagay sa COE ko. yun nga lang parang comparable lang ang job description sa pagiging CRO. (gagandahan ko na lang ang CDR ko para hindi tagilid. At ibabribe ko na lang din manager ko na dagdagan ng pang engineer na role ang JD ko. joke! hahah)

    On the other hand, from what I understand, kung as Power Plant Operator nman ako magpa assess sa TRA, subclass 190 lang ang option ko kasi nga nasa CSOL ang power plant operator na job. Meaning kailangan ko magpa nominate sa isang state. I found out isang state lang ang nagnonominate ng power plant operator which is queensland. My wife has a first cousin in queensland so that is why napapaisip na din ako na sa TRA nlang ako magpa assess as power plant operator and mag apply ng 190 under nomination sa queensland. Pero the great downside is kailangan ng settlement fund which is more or less Php 1.3 Million. Shocks! wla ako ganyang kalaking pera. huhuh.

    I am currently weighing the pros and cons kung saan tlaga ako magpapaassess. I guess I should opt on Plant Engineer just like what you suggested. Goodluck nlang sa akin :)

    In your case brod, hindi ka ba hinanapan ng settlement fund? Honestly, hindi pa din tlaga ako decided 100% if I should pursue my OZ dream. Baka kc sisihin pa ako ni misis kung sakaling maging mahirap yung magiging life namin jan. Currently kasi ok nman yung standard of living namin dito. Pero I believe mas maganda tlaga life jan sa OZ dba brod? Please convince me. hehehe. napapraning na ako sa kakaisip. Sa monday na magstart yung review ko ng IELTS pero wla pa ako sa concentration :(

    Mey nabasa ako sa kabilang thread na pwede daw yung principal applicant lang muna ang mauna sa OZ, is this true? I guess I will also be doing it. Iwan lang muna misis at baby sa pinas para hindi ako mahihirapan magpalipat2x ng state during the course of my job hunting expidition. kukunin ko nalang sila once mey work na.

    Sensya na brad medyo mahaba :)
