The oil and gas industry is an extremely fast growing industry; this is due to the increased demand for energy. For the industry to continue its survival and its growth, it depends on several factors. The most important of them all is the human resources. A few previous reports talked about how important are the human resources for handling oil and gas projects. This project had identified the roles and skills that are needed by reservoir, drilling and production engineers. Moreover, it found out the most pressuring problem facing the oil and gas industry. It also managed to identify the best solutions that will solve those problems in a way that will not backfire in the near future. This was achieved by coming up with a survey from previously used surveys. This survey was passed to petroleum engineers of the previously identified disciplines from Egyptian and Malaysian oil and gas companies. The answers of the surveys were analyzed, those answers had their reliability and validity tested by the statistical software SPSS. Eventually, the best solutions that were chosen and identified will later on help the industry and the new graduates.
