For two months, interns will complete practical and theoretical modules that will refine their knowledge of the oil and gas industry.

“For 21 years, our Internship program has developed and has become a real answer for the Group’s business needs. Over time, we have discovered high school graduates and students with great potential who have become our colleagues and are now performing in their fields of activity. Together with the mentors, we managed to develop a new learning structure, through which the interns deepened their knowledge and learned new skills, and this constantly helps us to continue the transfer of knowledge and grow the specialists that the industry needs,” said Gina Cruceru, Group Human Resources Director within KMG International (Rompetrol).

The 80 interns will be assigned to six of the KMG International (Rompetrol) Group companies – Rompetrol Rafinare, Rominserv, Midia Marine Terminal, Rompetrol Quality Control, Rompetrol Energy and Rompetrol Well Services. Most of the modules for the participants in the program will be carried out on-site, especially at the Petromidia Navodari and Vega Ploiesti refineries. The Interns will be guided and coordinated by 40 mentors, specialists in refining, petrochemicals, logistics or utilities. The interns will also attend the “Leaders Explore” program which consists of five online sessions. They will also participate in the “Community Challenge” program that will enable them to bring about changes in the community.

At the end of the two month-program, the interns will be awarded two certifications: one for graduating from the Rompetrol “Career Ready” program and one for graduating from the personal development program, carried out together with the partners from the Leaders Foundation.

Since 2001, the year of the first series of Rompetrol interns, the “Career Ready” program has gathered over 1,500 participants, and hundreds of current employees of the KMG International (Rompetrol) Group companies are former participants in the training programs.
