    Subsea Technician

    Job description

    Position Summary

    The Subsea Technician is a ‘fast track’ trainee of the Subsea Department. He or she is responsible for learning as much as possible about the subsea equipment to gain deep insight as to the various tasks and methods of the drilling vessel subsea environment. The technician will also be responsible for interacting with as many Subsea Supervisors as possible in the first year of the program.

    Department / Location
    Operations/ Global

    Position Scope
    The Subsea Technician program is intended to produce competent Subsea Supervisors from technically trained personnel in one year and on to Senior Subsea Supervisors in two years. The first year of the program is effectively full time while the second year will be (almost) equal time on and off and assigned to a drill-ship.

    The first year will be broken into four stages, the first of which will have the Technicians assigned to the Subsea Superintendents, the second stage will have the Technician assigned to one of our drill-ships.
    The third stage will be assigned to a different drill-ship (probably in a different country) and the fourth stage will have the Technician assigned to shadow the Subsea Superintendents again.

    During this first year there will be many training courses to attend and during both years there will be many assignments to complete and reports to write.

    The technicians will be evaluated and tested after each stage. A failure of any evaluation, an assignment or of the written test will prevent graduation. We will, however allow one opportunity only to correct such a failure.

    Reporting Relationships
    Direct Manager/Supervisor – The Subsea Technician will report to his (her) mentor on a daily basis.
    Functional Manager/Supervisor – The Subsea Technician will ultimately report to the Director of Operational Excellence.

    Supervisory Relationships
    None. This is a training function.

    Work Environment
    Rig, office, classroom and factory.

    Desired Skills and Experience

    The Subsea Technician is required to have:
    • A sound knowledge of hydraulic systems, with either mechanical or electrical related experience.
    • A technical education with a degree, a diploma or equivalent.
    • At least one year of supervisory experience (even if there was only one subordinate).
    • Worked a rotating schedule, with long periods away from home, preferably on foreign assignments.
    • The ability and willingness to perform self-study.
    • A sound knowledge of hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
    • The ability to read drawings and schematics.
    • Be able to collect and process information required for the assignments.
    • The capability to write detailed, though concise, technical reports.
    • Always promote Pacific Drilling in a positive manner.

    • Problem Solving.
    • Attention to details.
    • Strong organizational commitment.
    • Written and oral communication skills.
