Hi

I have a 5 year Bachelor’s Degree in Applied and Environmental Geology and I just made 3 years with a Mudlogging company, first as a Mudlogger and now as a Data Engineer. I also have a 4 months intensive course on Geographic Information Systems in which I worked for some time, previously. I'd like to know other people's opinions on career advancements.

Usually after having some good experience guys go to work as WSG, but this depends greatly on the current demand and your own experience. The money seems good (after some time 1000$/day, sounds good to me) and they have 4 weeks on/ 4 weeks off (give or take). I’m sure as a Junior WSG I would get much less, but I’m getting 105 USD/day now and 1550 USD basic salary, so I guess it wouldn’t be less than that anyway.

Lately I've been thinking of applying for a Master's Degree, but I'm just not sure...I will need to quit my job to do it (I'm not married and I don't have kids). I like working in the field, 4 or 5 weeks on and off, and wanted to keep it that way even with another job. But after a Master's Degree may be I can only get office jobs which I really wouldn't like at all...I like coming back home and these jobs would, most likely, need me to relocate. On the other hand a Master’s Degree might open up other opportunities and bigger salaries in the future.

So I need all those experienced opinions out there about this issue. Should I take a Master's degree? Would it be a good option? Or should I apply for Wellsite Geologist and think about it later?

Thanks
Ricardo
