Hexagon Synergy (M) Sdn. Bhd. / Muhammad Amirul Rasidi

It is eye-opening to see how the real industry operates, and having exposure to both office and field work, as well as dealing with a diverse group of individuals, has taught me a plethora of soft and hard skills that I would not have gained in a classroom. Aside from that, I learned concepts that are not difficult to learn in a classroom when I became too interested in receiving oil and wash water from cargo ships. During the desludging of oil and wash water, I saw a variety of vessels and equipment. It has piqued my curiosity in becoming a better engineer in the future. I was also exposed to the real-life Industrial Effluent Treatment System (IETS) plant size because of this practical training. I learned a lot about the facility, including the piping system and the processes of each piece of equipment.
