<p>2011’s projected household income in Fort McMurray is $177000 (with 64% of all households earning more than $100000). Below are the salaries of certain occupations in Fort McMurray (for year 2011)</p>
<p>Refrigerator repairmen- $120000</p>
<p>Plumber- $100000</p>
<p>Based on this, what is the likely salary of a petroleum engineer with a 2 or 3 years of experience for the year 2013. (consider that the job will be a field position, requiring you to spend weeks in the oil sands, working under the worst working conditions you can think of in Canada).</p>
<p>I appreciate you providing a good laugh for me today. I came upon this thread and never heard of Fort McMurray in my life. I typed it into google and it pulled up a forest filled map and I was looking over a town. I zoomed out and busted out laughing at where in Canada this place is located. Thank you.</p>
<p>You probably get paid 100k just for showing up or deciding to live there, lol.</p>
<p>This is for petroleum engineering in all of Alberta (no breakdown for Wood Buffalo available):

<p>You could ask this on the Engineering Majors subforum. There is an upperclassman in PetE at UofA who posts there sometimes and might have better info.
Looks like somebody had a good weekend ;)</p>
