[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row animation=””][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]I had a pleasure working for Cabot Oil & Gas as a Completions Intern in Pittsburgh, PA.  My experience working here opened my eyes to the opportunities that lie ahead for me and other young professionals pursuing a career in the oil and gas industry.

I’ve felt more challenged and involved as an intern here than I could have hoped for in my position.  Right away I was a part of daily drilling meetings and other discussions concerning live fracture jobs.  I had full access to well data and reports to create a project that tracked Cabot’s job efficiency for 2013. I’ve really enjoyed the trust Cabot has put into me.  Whether it was contacting vendors to potentially sign a license to new software, or updating dates on our schedule for pipeline to move in on a certain pad, Cabot has always given me the opportunity to show my ability to work in different situations.  I have sharpened my skills in several areas by doing different tasks every day and learned far more than I expected about the oil and gas industry than I could have imagined.
