I can answer specific questions definitely. If you want an open ended reply, automation is huge in the oil/gas industry. There really isn't any automation work to be done in the utility field. I worked with a service group repairing high voltage equipment. I did repair work on 345 KVA substation equipment. All utility work is done by human power.

With that said, automation is huge in the oil/gas industry. Everything is process driven. I did design work for oil rigs and pumping stations but down stream opportunities are endless. You need to be able to optimize how a barrel of crude oil becomes the water bottle that comes in a 24 pack from Walmart. Every cent you can save increases shareholder values. I can speak more on this if there is any interest
