Hi,
I have also received the job offer from the same group. I was also skeptical as i could not find any in formation regarding the group at all. They also gave me another email address "kanderson@onet.eu".
As to my request for details of the company this is what they sent
"Chef Platinum Industries ,popularly referred to as the Chef Group, is one of the leading independent oil and gas companies with approximately 298.9 million shares on issue and a market capitalisation approximately US$600 million in April 2008. Chef Platinum Holdings is also incorporated in the Netherlands as a subsidiary of The Chef Group with registrar nr: 28083956(Rijnland) and listed on the Netherlands Stock Exchange in 1999 and the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange in 2004.
The UK-based company has a strong operating emphasis, an international focus and a worldwide workforce of about 156 employees.
The Company’s assets are grouped into four main regions: Holland, China, Africa and UK; all of which are associated with proven petroleum systems, two of which were recognised as such as a result of exploration drilling by The Chef Group and its co-venturers.
As a result of the Company's encouraging exploration results, The Chef Group has participated in the development of a field offshore Mauritania and as operator, in the Perth Basin, offshore Western Australia. Production commenced at both these fields in 2006. The Chef Group also has two other fields in the North Sea; both commenced production in 2007.
The Chef Group's sequence of drilling successes includes discovering commercial oil in each of its first exploration wells in offshore Mauritania and offshore Western Australia and potentially commercial oil with its first well in China. In June 2004, the Chef Group made its debut as a deep water drilling operator when it drilled, on schedule and below budget Bravo-1, located in 1,500m of water, offshore Equatorial Guinea. In May 2006, the Chef Group as operator made an oil discovery in the Beibu Gulf, offshore China, which is currently undergoing pre-development studies.
In the next 18 months the Chef will participate in multi-well exploration, appraisal and development drilling programmes in onshore Angola, offshore Mauritania, offshore Western Australia, offshore China and the UK North Sea. Exploration drilling is also expected to take place in deep water offshore Equatorial Guinea.
This programme is part of the Chef’s “Organic Growth” strategy. Presently, the Company is pursuing a “Diversify-the-Company” strategy, with establishment of major recreational facilities in the Netherlands,prominent of them is the Platinum Mega Hotels in Groningen.
Finally,we currently have vacancies in our petroleum industry with supervisors also wanted in our hospitality industry."
