Gas comes in from various sources, from the sea, or on ships as liquefied natural gas. This goes into the high pressure gas network system that National Grid own. They push it round the country to certain points and at a certain pressure we take over and get it to your house.
Its like the motorway system - National Grid own the motorways and the big A roads ... we take over and get gas down the smaller A roads, B roads and right up your driveway.

Would you recommend doing a degree first or going in as an apprentice?

what other companies do you work with ...

We work with a hug range of companies; National Grid as per my last post. We also work with the other gas networks who do the same as us in other parts of the country. There are 4 companies who split the country up. We also work with huge number of suppliers who help us deliver our equipment, tools, kit etc. We have contractors who deliver special complex works for us too.

How are you putting the original post into your post - we will see what questions we are asking then!!

The risk of transporting gas? Well, we have millions of miles of pipes running underground that transport gas 24/7. The role of our business is to manage that risk all day every day. We have a great team of engineers that all play a vital part in ensuring the publics safety. Our apprentices are taught from Day 1 about the risk to safety and the best practices to avoid all accidents. Our main role is to protect life & property at all times.

Claire - there is bug your side so you can't see the reply button unfortunately.

Hi Raptor, in answer to your question about transportation to oil [link removed] honestly don't know! Though it is a good question so we will go and find out. In terms of how we transport - it is all done through pipework through both above and below ground assets. We then have a number of support teams that ensure this is all done safely and efficiently.

Would you recommend doing a degree first or going in as an apprentice?

It depends what you want to do. I think an apprenticeship is a fantastic way of getting great technical knowledge and getting a qualification at the same time. Whilst doing a degree is fantastic - you are likely to be earning about £25,000 by the time your friends are just finishing their degree.
Apprenticeships is great for hands-on doing the job. The degree graduate programme route is a great entry point for those who have done a degree and they get a broad experience across the organisation.
You have fantastic development opportunities whichever route you take and get supported to further your career.

Any more questions on our apprenticeships or any of our entry schemes guys?

What are you guys studying?

Our company isn't just about hands-on engineering too - we need analysts to work in the office and look at what our investments should be, the world of bio-methane is increasing and we have nearly 30 biomethane plants. We also need people in procurement to secure great contracts for our team, or you could work in HR or Finance.

we are studying a range of things but mostly engineering focus but some do chemistry physics and computer science

We have a growing IS (or IT) function where computing skills are needed. We don't have an apprenticeship in that area just yet but if you check our careers page regularly there may be jobs come up on there. One of the best skills learnt in there is also project management. You work with other companies who support our IT infrastructure and are constantly looking for new ways to improve. We have a team who look at innovation - including virtual reality (VR) headsets to help with training and looking at new kit to help us do our work more effectively.

is there a possibility of going to different countries ?

Unfortunately we are only a UK based company at this stage

does the company wish to expand in the future ?
