What are the prospects for these jobs going forward? From good to excellent. The world runs on cheap oil, yet the cheap oil is running out. There is much oil remaining, however, it is mostly in the hard-to-get places, such as the North Sea, the Southern Atlantic, even the Arctic Circle. With major fields around the middle east and Mexico entering terminal decline, the United States will open up offshore drilling and exploration as never before. Additionally, the existing workforce is ageing; more than 50% of the current industry labor force are retiring over the next 10 years, and a huge surge of job openings will be the result. Anyone who wants to work in this field will have that chance. Worldwide, demand for oil is going to increase every single year, with demand overtaking supply in only a few years, leading to a situation of a constant supply crunch with corresponding high prices.
