Qatar Petroleum is a good place to work, any it is a Ministerial Organisation... I think there is no litigations in having a job from Qatar Petroleum... about Qatar it is a cool place not like Dubai at all...Just confirm that the job is directly through Qatar Petroleum or some Sponsor who would recruit you as a Sub Contractor.. If so that will be very bad for you if you are going into a Sub Contractor's hands...Confirm that you are being recruited directly to Qatar Petroleum...Take Care

It depends on you. In UAE 3 most talked about places are Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah. Dubai is a modern and metropolitan city , like living in a "dream" and Abu Dhabi is catching up fast too.

Qatar ? Doha ? My personal view, Abu Dhabi and Doha do have similarities [ notable one that these 2 cities are sitting on top of the oil and gas reserves], so fundamentally these 2 cities do have great futures [ as long as the oil and gas price remain stable]. The governments are diversifying the economy so as not to rely solely on oil & gas revenue stream as I understand from my reading, Qatar does focus on education and tourism as one of their strategic thrust for its economic development.   

Having said that , my next question to you will be, why do you want to make a move, especially to this region ? Once you are clear and know the exact reasons, no matter whatever decision you will be making, you will be able to handle whatever it may come.

Qatar is a very safe place even for a single lady. However, still you have to be careful no matter how safe the place is. i.e. not to walk in a dark and little corner dark and creepy streets- you know what I mean. I know few single ladies, and they are quite happy to work here- again it is very subjective and relative what does happiness means :)

All the best, and I can rest assure you, that living and working in Doha are full of surprises and it can be fun, if you are flexible and have an open mind about everything .
