What is a fly in fly out welding?

A Fly In Fly Out (FIFO) welding job involves traveling to remote job sites, typically in mining, oil and gas, or construction industries, for scheduled work periods before returning home during off-shifts. Welders in these roles perform tasks such as pipeline welding, structural welding, and equipment repairs. FIFO positions often include accommodations, meals, and transportation provided by the employer. These jobs can offer high wages but require long work hours and extended time away from home.

What skills and qualifications are needed for fly in fly out welding?

To thrive as a Fly In Fly Out Welder, you need advanced welding skills, attention to detail, physical stamina, and often a relevant trade certification or apprenticeship. Familiarity with various welding processes (such as MIG, TIG, or Stick), industry safety standards, and certifications like CWB or AWS are typically required. Adaptability, excellent communication, and the ability to work well in remote teams are valuable soft skills. These qualifications are crucial since the role involves working in isolated locations on demanding projects, often with tight schedules and diverse teams.

What are the typical work rotations and living conditions for fly in fly out welding?

Fly In Fly Out (FIFO) Welders usually work on a rotating schedule, such as two weeks on and one week off, depending on the project and employer. During on-site shifts, accommodations like camps or lodges are provided, offering meals and basic amenities to support the workforce in remote locations. You can expect long working days, often 10-12 hours, which are offset by extended periods off for rest and travel home. Working as part of a FIFO team fosters strong camaraderie but also requires you to adapt quickly to new teams and environments. Understanding these unique work and living arrangements helps ensure you're prepared for both the opportunities and challenges the role presents.

  • Additional NDT Level II or III certifications in methods such as Radiography (RT), Visual (VT), or Penetrant (PT).
  • American Welding Society (AWS) Certified Welding Inspector (CWI).
  • Experience performing inspections within the aerospace industry, particularly on weldments and advanced materials (e.g., superalloys, titanium, high-strength aluminum).
  • Knowledge of additional aerospace standards (e.g., NASA, AMS, ASME).
  • Familiarity with Lean Manufacturing principles and formal problem-solving techniques (e.g., 8D, PPS).
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and experience with NDT-specific software.

Additional Requirements

  • Must meet minimum vision requirements, including 20/25 (Snellen) at 16" or equivalent.
