Position Overview
The Technical Engineering Technician will support Midland field operations through a combination of production operations, mechanical maintenance, process monitoring, troubleshooting, safety coordination, and technical engineering support. This is a hands-on field position requiring experience with oil, gas, water-handling, pumping, compression, or related industrial systems.
The two night-shift employees will initially work days before transitioning to nights. The positions currently participate in a callout rotation, which is expected to transition into a formal rotational schedule.
Primary Responsibilities

• Monitor and maintain stable production from oil and gas wells and associated facilities.
• Operate and monitor gas compressors, air compressors, pumping systems, pipelines, and water-handling equipment.
• Identify equipment and process failures and coordinate maintenance to minimize deferred production.
• Support preventive and corrective mechanical maintenance.
• Monitor and control oil, gas, diluent, produced water, and injection-water systems.
• Track well and facility operating variables and make process-control decisions.
• Support the design, modification, and continuous improvement of pumping and production systems.
• Perform production inspection, measurement, accounting, and daily reporting.
• Assist with LAND flow measurement systems and positive-displacement meters.
• Interpret operating data and monitor process and equipment performance.
• Support well-control and surface-monitoring systems.
• Develop and update operating, safety, and management-of-change procedures.
• Assist with pipeline construction and field coordination activities.
• Support cathodic protection monitoring for pipelines and storage tanks.
• Prepare and control work permits and conduct job safety evaluations.
• Coordinate with maintenance, operations, engineering, and construction personnel.
• Follow all company safety, environmental, and operational requirements.
