Job Profile
The Calibration Technician is responsible for maintaining the accuracy, reliability, and regulatory compliance of all measurement and control instruments utilized in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and high-pressure systems. Key responsibilities include conducting routine calibrations, maintaining detailed calibration records, and ensuring compliance with industry standards and safety protocols.
Responsibilities

• Perform scheduled and ad-hoc calibration of pressure, temperature, flow, and gas composition measurement devices, vibration, and Gas Detector.
• Ensure the accuracy and proper functioning of sensors, transmitters, and control systems through verification and testing procedures.
• Record and analyze critical equipment data.
• Perform rotating equipment critical instrument inspection and parameter record at plant.
• Maintain, calibrate, and report malfunctioning instruments to ensure peak operational efficiency.
• Ensure accurate documentation and management of calibration records and certificates in full compliance with ISO, API, and relevant regulatory frameworks.
• Maintain detailed calibration records including test results, instrument history, out-of-tolerance conditions, and corrective actions.
• Identify and resolve instrumentation deviations to maintain precise and reliable compliance.
• Conduct root cause analysis to identify and address causes of calibration drift or equipment malfunctions.
• Ensure all calibration activities meet local (UAE) and international standards (ISO 17025, 9001, API, etc.).
• Ensure traceability of all calibrations to national or international standards (e.g., NIST).
• Follow strict safety protocols while handling high-pressure CNG systems.
• Participate in risk assessments and safety audits related to calibration.
• Ensure all work complies with company HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) policies.
• Recommend upgrades or modifications to improve calibration and instrument efficiency.
• Stay updated with advancements in calibration technology and industry best practices.
• Identify opportunities for process improvements in calibration workflows and measurement methods.
