Text I
A Day in the Life of the Women of O&G
By Jaime Kammerzell
From Rigzone Contributor. Tuesday, February 14, 2012
             
               Although far fewer women work in the oil and gas (O&G) industry compared to men, many women find rewarding careers in the industry. Five women were asked the same questions regarding their career [05] choices in the oil and gas industry.
               
               Question 1: Why did you choose the oil and gas industry?
               Woman 1: Cool technology, applying science and money.
               [10] Woman 2: It seemed interesting and the pay was good.
               Woman 3: They offered me a job! I couldn’t turn down the great starting salary and a chance to live in New Orleans.
               [15] Woman 4: I did not really choose the oil and gas industry as much as it chose me.
               Woman 5: I chose the oil and gas industry because of the challenging projects, and I want to be part of our country’s energy solution.
               
               [20] Question 2: How did you get your start in the oil and gas industry?
                Woman 1: I went to a university that all major oil companies recruit. I received a summer internship with Texaco before my last year of my Master’s degree.
               [25]  Woman 2: I was recruited at a Texas Tech Engineering Job Fair.
                Woman 3: At the time, campus recruiters came to the geosciences department of my university annually and they sponsored scholarships for [30] graduate students to help complete their research. Even though my Master’s thesis was more geared toward environmental studies, as a recipient of one of these scholarships, my graduate advisor strongly encouraged me to participate when the time came for [35] O&G Industry interviews.
                Woman 4: I was working for a company in another state where oil and gas was not its primary business. When the company sold its division in the state where I was working, they offered me a position at [40] the company’s headquarters in Houston managing the aftermarket sales for the company’s largest region. Aftermarket sales supported the on-highway, construction, industrial, agricultural and the oil and gas markets. After one year, the company asked me [45] to take the position of managing their marine and offshore power products division. I held that position for three years. I left that company to join a new startup company where I hold the position of president.
                Woman 5: My first job in the oil and gas industry was [50] an internship with Mobil Oil Corp., in New Orleans. I worked with a lot of smart, focused and talented geoscientists and engineers.
               
               Question 3: Describe your typical day.
               Woman 1: Tough one to describe a typical day. I [55] generally read email, go to a couple of meetings and work with the field’s earth model or look at seismic.
               Woman 2: I talk with clients, help prepare bids and work on getting projects out the door. My days are never the same, which is what I love about the job I [60] have.
               Woman 3: I usually work from 7:30 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. (although the official day is shorter). We call the field every morning for an update on operations, security, construction, facilities and production engineering [65] activities. I work with my team leads on short-term and long-term projects to enhance production (a lot of emails and Powerpoint). I usually have 2-3 meetings per day to discuss/prioritize/review ongoing or upcoming work (production optimization, simulation [70] modeling, drilling plans, geologic interpretation, workovers, etc.). Beyond our team, I also participate in a number of broader business initiatives and leadership teams.
               Woman 4: A typical day is a hectic day for me. My [75] day usually starts well before 8 a.m. with phone calls and emails with our facility in Norway, as well as other business relationships abroad. At the office, I am involved in the daily business operations and also stay closely involved in the projects and the [80] sales efforts. On any given day I am working on budgets and finance, attending project meetings, attending engineering meetings, reviewing drawings and technical specifications, meeting with clients and prospective clients, reviewing sales proposals, [85] evaluating new business opportunities and making a lot of decisions.
               Woman 5: On most days I work on my computer to complete my projects. I interpret logs, create maps, research local and regional geology or write [90] documents. I go to project meetings almost every day. I typically work only during business hours, but there are times when I get calls at night or on weekends from a rig or other geologists for assistance with a technical problem.

🔎 Leitura Orientada
A questão avalia a competência de Tempos Verbais (Verb Tenses) do SILO 2, operando na identificação morfossintática e no contraste temporal aplicados a relatos de experiências profissionais do SILO 3 (Business & Employment). O objetivo principal do item é rastrear a consistência temporal das orações, exigindo que o candidato isole o único fragmento cujas formas verbais estejam ancoradas **exclusivamente** no passado (Simple Past), sem a intrusão de estados presentes ou rotinas atuais.

Para selar a consistência temporal legítima do gabarito, esquematiza-se a auditoria morfológica das formas:
Past Fragment: was (Simple Past of BE) + worked (Regular Simple Past) ──► 100% Past Exclusive (C)
A Engine de distratores da Cesgranrio atua aplicando o gatilho do Deslocamento Temporal por Intrusão de Rotina e Estados Presentes. A banca constrói alternativas misturando verbos clássicos no passado (como chose, held, left) com marcas verbais explícitas do presente (como want, hold, am, stay, work). Essa técnica visa capturar o candidato que realiza um escaneamento rápido apenas no início do período e ignora a mudança de tempo verbal que ocorre no meio ou no encerramento da sentença.
🟢 GABARITO VERDÃO: (C)
A alternativa (C) resolve o comando com precisão cirúrgica e homogeneidade gramatical absoluta. No fragmento extraído do depoimento, a entrevistada relata a sua introdução no mercado de trabalho. O primeiro verbo empregado é was (passado do verbo *to be*) e o segundo é worked (passado regular do verbo *to work*). Como nenhuma outra forma no presente ou marca de rotina atual é introduzida no período, a estrutura consagra-se como a única inteiramente restrita ao passado.
🧠 Regra B3GE™:
Frente a comandos de exclusividade ou consistência temporal (*"exclusively performed in the past"*), aplique a **Técnica do Pente Fino nos Verbos Finais**. As bancas adoram colocar dois ou três verbos no *Simple Past* no início da frase para desarmar a atenção do candidato e inserem um verbo no *Simple Present* ou *Present Perfect* bem no finalzinho. Circule rigorosamente **todos** os verbos da alternativa antes de marcar. Se encontrar uma única palavra indicando estado atual ou rotina (como *want, hold, am*), risque a opção sumariamente por quebra de exclusividade temporal.
📝 Análise das alternativas
(A) ❌
Distrator 19 — Deslocamento Temporal (Intrusão de Desejo Presente).
A oração inicia com o verbo no passado chose, mas a Engine sabota a exclusividade temporal ao introduzir a conjunção aditiva coordenada pelo verbo want (quero). Essa transição desloca o eixo temporal da frase diretamente para o presente.
(B) ❌
Distrator 19 — Deslocamento Temporal (Transição de Status Laboral).
O fragmento descreve o histórico de cargos da profissional com os verbos no passado held e left. Contudo, no encerramento do período, a oração adjetiva introduz o verbo hold no presente para indicar o cargo atual de presidente, quebrando o requisito.
(C) 🟢 GABARITO VERDÃO
Competência avaliada: 21. Verb Tenses (Passado Puro e Homogêneo).
Esta alternativa valida o comando de exclusividade de forma incontestável. Todas as ações e estados descritos no fragmento do estágio encontram-se morfologicamente indexados no passado (was e worked), mantendo a harmonia cronológica do período.

O batimento estrutural consolida-se assim:
Historical Record ──► Past Forms: was / worked ──► 100% Past Timeline (C)
(D) ❌
Distrator 19 — Deslocamento Temporal (Estado Presente Contínuo).
A alternativa falha completamente no teste cronológico. O fragmento inteiro está construído sobre o tempo verbal Simple Present por intermédio das formas verbais am e stay, descrevendo a atuação e rotina presente da executiva no escritório.
(E) ❌
Distrator 19 — Deslocamento Temporal (Enumeração de Rotina Atual).
O marcador temporal de frequência "On most days" já acusa a presença de uma rotina recorrente. A Engine satura o trecho com uma sucessão de verbos no presente (work, interpret, create, research, write), anulando qualquer chance de foco exclusivo no passado.
🧠 Resumo B3GE™ Master
A desestruturação de armadilhas aplicadas a tempos verbais e cronologia de depoimentos profissionais na Cesgranrio revela a operação de filtros sistemáticos. Atente aos gatilhos desarmados nesta engenharia reversa:
Mecanismo da Isca de Início Falso (A, B): A Engine atua injetando verbos legítimos no passado no primeiro bloco da alternativa (chose, held, left) para induzir o candidato à marcação precipitada, confiando que ele não prosseguirá na auditoria morfossintática das orações seguintes.
Sabotagem por Enumeração Enumerativa de Rotina (E): Agrupa múltiplos verbos de ação do cotidiano da engenharia petrolífera em formato de lista para confundir o estudante desatento por meio do volume léxico, ocultando o fato de que a lista reside inteiramente no presente.
Consagração da Rigidez Cronológica Uniforme: Premia o reconhecimento cirúrgico do paralelismo no passado (Simple Past puro), isolando o relato que foca estritamente nas realizações antigas da época de estágio.
Portanto, a alternativa (C) ergue-se como a única resposta logicamente indestrutível.
🏛️ Classificação B3GE™ Final
SILO 2 — Linguístico
thematic: Grammar in Context
theme: 21. Verb Tenses
Peça Operativa Principal: Temporal Consistency Auditing / Simple Past Morphosyntactic Tracking / Present Routine Deflection

SILO 3 — Contextual
contentTopic: 15. Business & Employment
subtheme: Simple Past and Temporal Contrast in Descriptions of Professional Experience
🎯 Justificativa B3GE™

O item afere a proficiência na identificação, contraste e validação de estruturas verbais homogêneas em fragmentos de trajetórias corporativas, classificado no tema 21. Verb Tenses do SILO 2. O escopo contextual foca na descrição de históricos profissionais, estágios e evolução de carreiras no mercado, indexado ao tema 15. Business & Employment do SILO 3. A correta resolução exige expurgar os distratores de Deslocamento Temporal (A, B, D e E) que rompem o critério de exclusividade ao misturar rotinas do presente, sentimentos atuais e status corporativo ativo. A opção C chancela-se de modo legítimo por apresentar estabilidade sintática restrita ao passado.
