The Possibilities

If you have earned your Master's or Ph.D. in one of the following Engineering/Science disciplines, your career path at ExxonMobil may lead to advanced level opportunities in several areas of research and development.

• Mechanical
• Chemical
• Civil
• Aeronautical
• Materials
• Environmental
•  Petroleum
• Marine/Ocean
• Applied Mechanics
• Naval Architecture
• Physics
• Metallurgy

There are six main areas of research for the Engineering Master's/Ph.D. candidate:

Downstream/Chemicals

Engineers in this area will find advanced level opportunities in Downstream Research & Engineering, and in Chemicals; with a focus on product development, research and technology.

Offshore

Offshore engineers develop innovative new concepts for safe, economic offshore facilities of immense scale and complexity designed to operate in some of the harshest environments on the planet.

Reservoir

Exciting opportunities exist to collaborate in predicting the production rates and cumulative recovery of hydrocarbons over the life span of oil and gas reservoirs.

Wells & Materials

Researchers in the drilling, production, and materials areas are developing new technology, designing and testing pipe, connections and equipment, and optimizing the completion system that maximizes oil and gas production.

Gas & Facilities

Facilities engineers develop the processes and technologies that enable competitive production of petroleum by tailoring equipment to the unique reservoir conditions. Flow assurance engineers determine how to prevent wax, asphaltenes, and hydrates from accumulating in the pipelines and blocking flow.

Technical Software Development

Research engineers in this area design, develop, and support state-of-the-art technical software to achieve bottom-line business impact.
