  • Complete daily production reports, operating logs, environmental documentation, and client-required paperwork accurately and on time.
  • Coordinate vendor and contractor activities while maintaining safe work practices.
  • Assist in training and mentoring less experienced operators.
  • Maintain excellent housekeeping standards and support a positive team environment.
  • Perform all work in accordance with company policies, client requirements, BSEE regulations, and Island Operating's ZONE Zero safety culture.
Qualifications

  • Minimum 3 years of offshore production operations experience.
  • Strong understanding of offshore oil and gas production processes and equipment.
  • Experience with:
    • Three-phase separation
    • Glycol dehydration systems
    • Heat exchangers
    • Chemical treating systems
    • Produced water systems
    • Production optimization
    • Oil and gas measurement
    • Utility systems
