Offshore Production Technician careers

An Offshore Production Technician operates and maintains processing equipment on oil and gas platforms or floating facilities. You might work for international energy companies or specialised offshore contractors. You will focus on monitoring wellhead pressures, managing gas compression, and ensuring the safe separation of hydrocarbons. By performing routine inspections and troubleshooting faults, you ensure continuous production and prevent environmental incidents.

Offshore Production Technicians play a vital role in Australia's energy sector. You must be technically minded and safety-conscious to work effectively in remote, high-pressure environments. You will liaise with control room operators and maintenance teams to ensure all facility systems are functioning correctly and that production targets are met safely.
