I'm a chemical engineer, i graduated on 2007 and have been working as a graduate engineer at an LNG company since febraury 2008. after finishing the graduate program on february 2009 i'm supposed to work as a process engineer yet today i got an offer to work with the production planning guys with a new software that's going to be installed ( bablefish) the job has some risk as it's a new position and software but also offers good training and also means i'll change my career path to be that of production planning rather than process engineering.
should i accept the offer or stay as a process engineer?

i graduated in 2005 and have been working as a process engineer for about 3 years now...process engineers are very highly sought after in the O&G industry, and from my experience are highly thought of in the chain...one of my old engineering managers described process engineers as the "linch pins" in the company...i can only speak of process becuase i dont know much about production planning, but for me personally i would stay in process.
