Descrizione del lavoro

Instrument Tubing Technician — Staff Position

Permanent technical staff role responsible for fabrication, testing and maintenance of primary instrument small‑bore tubing on oil & gas facilities.

Overview

Works on instrument air lines and process take‑offs using mechanical two‑ferrule fittings (e.g., Swagelok). Tubing layouts are typical rather than engineered; candidate must interpret standard layouts and adapt solutions on site.

Key Responsibilities

• Tubing fabrication and installation: cutting, deburring, forming and bending tubing to typical minimum bend radii; installation on panels, skids and supports.
• Mechanical fittings installation: assembly and torqueing of Swagelok and equivalent fittings following manufacturer procedures to ensure leak‑tight, serviceable joints.
• Process take‑off and valve installation: mounting, orienting and mechanically securing valves, manifolds and process take‑offs.
• Testing and commissioning: performing leak tests and pressure tests on tubing circuits; preparing and filing test reports.
• Operational support: assist commissioning activities and functional connections to transmitters, solenoids and isolation valves; perform routine maintenance on tubing systems.
• Technical documentation: maintain work checklists, record activities and report technical non‑conformances.

Technical Skills

• Hands‑on experience with two‑ferrule fittings (Swagelok or similar) and knowledge of correct installation techniques for vibration resistance and re‑assembly.
• Small‑bore tubing skills: manual bending, flaring, swaging, deburring and use of tube benders and torque tools.
• Ability to read typical drawings and simplified P&IDs and apply non‑engineered layouts in the field.
• Testing competence: use of leak detection equipment and pressure tools.
• Attention to detail in producing serviceable, leak‑free connections and accurate documentation.

Qualifications

• Education: technical diploma or vocational qualification in mechanical, instrumentation or related field, or equivalent proven experience.
• Experience: prior work on oil & gas or industrial plants with small‑bore tubing; specific experience or certification with Swagelok is highly desirable.
• Training: practical tubing system courses or manufacturer training is a plus.
• Availability: full time staff role; willingness to work on site or travel as required.

Employment Terms and Application

• Employment type: staff position; salary and level based on experience and skills.
• Application: submit an updated CV highlighting tubing and Swagelok experience and technical references.
