Petrochemists earn more than $50,000 a year
By Peter Dejong and Paul McErlane The petrochemical industry is big business.
It generates more than half a billion dollars for the Australian economy every year, accounting for almost half of the total GDP.
The petro chemical industry has been booming in recent years, as Australia’s reliance on imported energy has led to a drop in the cost of fossil fuels.
Petrochemical plants have also grown rapidly, and the industry is still growing.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), the petro chemicals industry contributed more than 7 per cent of Australia’s GDP in 2017-18, with a further 7 percent of GDP coming from the chemicals industry.
The largest petro manufacturing sector, petroelectronics, employs more than 13,000 people, and is the most common industry occupation.
According the Bureau of Australian Industry and Technology (AIT), the most productive petro-chemical plant is Petrogemania (formerly known as Petrolia), in the northern NSW town of Wollongong, which employs about 1,000 workers.
It is the largest plant in the region, employing more than 5,000 employees.
According a 2017 survey conducted by the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), the number of petro factories in Australia has increased by more than 80 per cent in the last decade.
Petrogemedia employs more workers than the entire Australian construction industry.
In 2017-2018, the company employed more than 10,000 construction workers, while the construction sector employed just over 5,500.
The construction industry is a large contributor to the petrotechnics industry, and in 2017, construction employment grew by more about 7 per, with the construction industry contributing 7 per of Australia in total.
According AEMO, construction industry employment grew at a rate of more than 40 per cent from 2014 to 2017.
The most popular petro processing plant in Australia is Petromania (known as Petromedia), which employs over 10,500 people.
The plant employs about 4,000 jobs in the construction and construction services sectors.
Petromedia has recently expanded its petro plant capacity, adding a second processing plant, which will be operational by the end of 2021.
This expansion will allow the company to more efficiently process petro products, such as fertilisers and pesticides.
According its website, Petromanie is Australia’s largest petropreneur, with about 2,600 employees.
The company has also been able to attract more than 50 foreign direct investment into its Petromanian operations.
Petropreneurs are often seen as the backbone of the Australian construction and manufacturing sector.
They are skilled workers with the knowledge and experience to make the construction process a success.
According Australia’s Construction Industry Federation, there are currently around 30,000 petro contractors in Australia, with around 4,800 of them working in the petropole industry.
Despite the increase in construction industry jobs in recent decades, there is still a significant need for skilled and experienced construction workers.
In 2017, there were more than 2.5 million construction jobs in Australia.
