INDUSTRY OUTLOOK
Confidence and Concerns
For the past three years employers have had a consistently positive
outlook on the industry. Over 70 per cent of employers have a positive to
very positive outlook moving into 2014. Despite this positivity there are
still many factors that could impede on employers plans for growth. For
example, in South America and Australasia, approximately a third of
employers are concerned with economic instability and in North America,
40 per cent are concerned with skill shortages. In Africa economic
instability is equally as concerning as the potential of environmental
issues. Safety regulations remain an important concern here as well.

EMPLOYERS GEOGRAPHICAL FOCUS OVER THE NEXT 12 MONTHS, OUTSIDE THEIR OWN REGIONAL AREA
North Sea
eoscience and subsurface professionals are in high
G
demand due to an emergence of projects over the last
12 months. These candidates with North Sea specific
development experience are in particular short supply
as they are typically recruited for projects overseas.
Employers in 2014 should plan ahead their recruitment
plans in order be prepared for this shortage.
Ed Allnutt, Director, Hays Oil & Gas
Middle East
e have seen strong business activity
W
in 2013, and as planned projects come
on-line, we expect the Middle East to be
a hive of recruitment of activity over the
next year. The labour market is forecast
to remain stable for local candidates
but increase for imported talent, as
employers look to overseas to source the
skills needed to support major projects
planned for 2014.

permanent and temporary
professionals are predicted to
increase in 2014 as new projects

candidates will come from
the local market in Canada,
initiatives such as the new LNG
pipeline will require employers
to reach out internationally to
obtain all the skills needed.

through-out the year, candidates are high
in demand causing wage pressures. In
an effort to keep costs from escalating
employers are utilising bonuses to keep
base salaries in check. We anticipate
much of the same for 2014.
Mike Wilkshire, Director, Hays Oil & Gas
Australia
ith portions of the market remaining
W
flat over 2013, employers are looking to
exhaust local resources before they will
consider sponsorship. Key technical areas
and skillsets specific to new technology
like FLNG and dynamic positioning
are new to Australia however, and as
such, employers are looking to overseas
markets for resources.
