  • Get equipment ready and confirm Permit to Work requirements before operations begin; assist with risk assessment preparation.
  • Support TCP operations under supervision, including basic wellhead upkeep and repair or maintenance of pressure control equipment.
  • Take direction for routine tasks and more detailed wellsite instructions, then complete basic shop and location duties as assigned.
  • Help prepare reports for onshore and offshore teams, and follow all quality and operational procedures set out in company manuals.
  • Carry out every task in line with company safety and environmental rules, follow environmental procedures at all times, and take part in client QHSE meetings.

Requirements & Qualifications

  • Bring at least two years of relevant experience.
  • Demonstrate a solid history of wireline TCP service delivery with a strong safety mindset.
