dear all,
my name is golda and i come from indonesia. well, currently i've been accepted to 2 well-known universities far i know, which is oil and gas law in aberdeen university and business, corporate and maratime law (bcml) in erasmus rotterdam .
up to now, i havent been able to make decisions between those two programme..previously, i was so interested in oil n gas law, nonetheless by the time going there are some rumors saying that oil and gas industry is kinda "sunset business" nowadays..and also the field that would be able to me will be so limited, only the oil and gas company itself. then i think it will be better for me to take bcml programme, besides it sounds wider and more common so that it'll be easier for me get any kind of job.
mmhh.. I still can not decide where am i standing at now..by this board i hope we can discuss this matter and surely it will help me to decide which best either for present or future..
i really need your opinion..
regards.

Hello Golda!
Perhaps this is a little late. I am from a town near Aberdeen and did my LL.B in Scotland. The city itself is quite miserable - lots of grey buildings and rain!! But probably the best place for oil and gas law in Europe (as well as Dundee).
I interned with a large oil company in Aberdeen. From what I heard it was common for LL.M grads to get positions with companies such as Schlumberger, Total etc. Although if you want to practice you would need to complete further steps.
The oil & gas industry employs thousands of people in the area. Although I would be cautious, since investment is decreasing in the North Sea. Having said that, many of the companies there are focussing on frontier fields and seem to be doing quite well.
Good luck whatever your decision :)
