seeking employment
Jun 2011 - Present · 15 years

Hi, this is Tushar Vatsa, hope you are doing well, need help, I am taking the liberty to write to you. I am looking for work as per the subject mentioned position.

I am a Canadian permanent resident, have studied and worked in USA and a few other countries, my educational background of chemical and petroleum engineering gives me a good insight into the oil and gas industry.

Kindly pass this email as a covering note to the hiring manager. I believe the position i am seeking work needs someone with a good background in upstream, midstream and downstream operations in oil and gas. I tend to have these skills as this a direct match with my educational background and work experience.

My Bachelors in Chemical Engineering and internships in petrochemical industry-cracking of ethylene, masters thesis from Penn State in deliverability enhancement of gas storage wells using hydraulic fracturing - internships with Cairn Energy, Schlumberger further supplement the same.

My work experience in design and construction of onshore pipeline and related assemblies including slug catcher, pig receiver / launcher etc give me a good insight into the midstream operations.

I am good at people management skills with my construction experience in natural gas operations-CNG, PNG, open to constructive criticism, genuine interest to seek and offer help, knowing asking for help is not a sign of weakness.

My field / construction and design experience will come in handy for the role, kindly pass this note to the hiring manager, please do acknowledge the receipt of this email.

I might not have the number of years for the role but have seen and coordinated with Bechtel's management, Chevron (parent company) and the suppliers. I am good at people management skills, building relationships, promoting unity within the company, have seen at times it's difficult to get work sone within different departments too, have coordinated to solve DCNs, field queries. I can stoop down and get to work with the construction crew in a good way. All in all a positive person who thinks of his office coworkers as family and wants to help everyone including himself and the company to attain results.

If the above interest you, please let me know if we can talk.

Please note sometimes number of years is not the sole criteria, the quality is more important, this has been mentioned by my superiors in terms of what i have done in 5 odd years (example) is equivalent to 10, give me a shot and I won't disappoi
