How much do seismic vessel jobs pay per year?

As of Aug 7, 2026, the average yearly pay for seismic vessel in the United States is $95,411.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $70,000.00 and $112,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What does a typical work schedule look like for someone working on a seismic vessel?

Seismic vessel crews often work on a rotational schedule, such as several weeks on the vessel followed by a set period off, to accommodate the vessel’s around-the-clock operations at sea. Daily responsibilities can involve long shifts, managing survey equipment, monitoring data acquisition, and participating in safety drills and maintenance tasks. Work is highly team-based, requiring close collaboration with marine crew, survey specialists, and technical staff. This demanding schedule is balanced by periods of extended leave, offering both the challenge of offshore work and time to recharge between rotations.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the seismic vessel position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a seismic vessel crew member, you need a background in maritime operations, knowledge of seismic data acquisition procedures, and a relevant seafaring or technical qualification such as an STCW certification. Familiarity with seismic survey equipment, navigation systems, and safety protocols is essential. Strong teamwork, adaptability, and effective communication are vital soft skills in the dynamic offshore environment. These capabilities are crucial for ensuring safe, efficient, and high-quality geophysical data collection under challenging conditions.

What is a seismic vessel?

A Seismic Vessel job involves working on a specialized ship that conducts underwater surveys to map geological formations beneath the seafloor. These vessels use airguns and hydrophone arrays to send and receive sound waves, helping locate oil, gas, and other resources. Roles onboard include geophysicists, navigators, engineers, and seismic technicians. Crew members ensure equipment operates efficiently, maintain safety protocols, and analyze collected data. The job often requires long periods at sea and technical expertise in marine exploration technology.

Job description

Senior Structural Analyst

Location: Remote Company: System One Pay Rate: $56.00–$95.00/hour Position Type: Long-Term Contract

Position Overview

System One is seeking an experienced Senior Structural Analyst to support the design and development of advanced nuclear reactor technologies. This role focuses on performing structural and finite element analyses (FEA) of reactor vessels, reactor internals, containment structures, and nuclear island components operating in high-temperature and radiation environments.

The ideal candidate will have extensive experience with structural mechanics, ANSYS, ASME design codes, and engineering analysis for complex mechanical systems. This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to next-generation nuclear energy projects while working alongside a multidisciplinary team of engineers and scientists.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform structural and mechanical analyses of reactor systems, vessels, internals, and nuclear island components.
  • Conduct finite element analyses (FEA) to evaluate structural integrity under thermal, pressure, seismic, and operational loading conditions.
  • Analyze equipment in accordance with applicable engineering codes and standards including ASME BPVC, ASCE, and AISC.
  • Support structural evaluations including stress, fatigue, fracture mechanics, buckling, creep, and thermal analyses.
  • Collaborate with mechanical, systems, and design engineers to optimize component designs for safety, manufacturability, and performance.
  • Prepare engineering calculations, technical reports, and design documentation.
  • Perform peer reviews to ensure compliance with engineering quality standards.
  • Support design reviews and provide technical recommendations throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership as needed.
  • Serve as a technical resource for structural analysis activities.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • 8+ years of structural analysis experience (or equivalent combination of advanced degree and experience).
  • Strong background in finite element analysis (FEA) using ANSYS.
  • Experience with SolidWorks and structural modeling.
  • Thorough understanding of:
    • Structural mechanics
    • Stress analysis
    • Fracture mechanics
    • Fatigue analysis
    • Thermal analysis
    • Buckling analysis
    • Creep and inelastic analysis
  • Experience working with pressure vessel and piping codes including:
    • ASME Section III
    • ASME Section VIII Division 2
    • ASME B31.1 and/or B31.3
  • Experience performing engineering calculations and documenting analytical results.
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Nuclear industry experience.
  • Seismic analysis experience using response spectrum and time-history methods.
  • Knowledge of:
    • ASCE 4
    • ASCE 43
    • AISC N690
    • AISC 360
    • AWS D1.1
    • AWS D1.6
  • Experience working under quality assurance programs such as ASME NQA-1 or ISO 9001.
  • Proficiency with Mathcad.
  • Programming experience with Python is a plus.
  • Experience supporting advanced reactor, power generation, or other highly regulated engineering projects.
