Job Description:
What's the role
Based in the Southern North Sea, Operations & Maintenance technicians will be based on one of two assets (Sole Pit Clipper / Leman Alpha). Both Assets are described as LEAN assets and follow a similar operating model, with recent changes making multiskilling a key requirement to working in ONEgas.
Reporting to the platform supervision team (Operations / Maintenance Supervisors) technicians are responsible for the safe and efficient operation of installation plant and equipment. They are required to maximise and optimise production opportunities and achieve day-to-day production targets, whilst maintaining plant equipment, undertaking any corrective / preventative maintenance tasks as required. This will include investigating anomalies and carrying out front line problem solving, reporting / rectifying issues as required, to ensure the processing and ancillary plant are operated within the specified operating window. Ad-hoc visitors and vendors may also be directed by the Operations & Maintenance technician.
