About the Role
The Pipeline / Terminal Operator II role is a field-based position dedicated to operating and maintaining pipeline facilities and terminals, including tanks, pumping stations, LACTs, and gathering facilities. The primary mission is to ensure the accurate and safe transportation and storage of petroleum products. While Terminal Operators work within terminal facilities, Pipeline Operators typically work at facilities up and down pipeline and gathering systems.
In this role, you will assist with petroleum product movements in and out of pipeline terminals and/or pump stations, manage product storage, and handle custody transfers with connecting carriers and customers. You will accurately assess the quantity and quality of crude oil and/or refined products, perform general facility maintenance, and control product flows during both normal operations and emergency conditions. The position requires a high level of safety awareness, as the work often takes place in open environments with extremes of heat and cold, frequently in proximity to high voltage and/or chemicals. Protective clothing and equipment are required, and the role is subject to callouts for field operations and emergency response.
Hiring Process
We thank all candidates for their interest; however, only those selected for an interview will be contacted. By submitting your resume, you consent to the collection, use, and necessary disclosure of the personal information provided during the application and selection process.
