Oil and gas engineer?

how much would one be paid is they are a oil and gas engineer , would they be up around the same money as a mining engineer , would there be lots of chances for jobs and travelOil and gas engineer?
As a petroleum engineer you could expect to make anywhere around $66,970 to $111,910 depending where you work. As a Mining engineer you could expect to make somewhere from $56,420 to $88,080 depending on where you live. Please take into account that these all averages and it is possible to make a lot more or a bit less than what I have listed. Assuming that you live in the US, you would probably travel about the same as you would if you were to pursue a mining degree. As for jobs it would depend on how well you did in school, your experience, ect. Although you have to take into account that you would probably need to get some advanced degrees for either subject to be making the big bucks and traveling a lot. In fact my friend's dad has a PhD in Petroleum engineering and 3 other subjects and he travels a lot and is pretty well off.Oil and gas engineer?
