Your work keeps our water injection fleet safe, reliable and ready for the next challenge. You bring together hands on engineering and modern automation. You explore issues, solve problems and support continuous improvement. You help the crew work safely and with confidence. Your actions have visible impact on project progress and on the quality of the final result.
