Marlboro Energy Ltd.

Marlin Resources is restarting the McKay River SAGD facility near Fort McMurray, AB, and we are assembling the operations team to lead it back to production. This is a rare opportunity to join a thermal operation at the outset.
Contract | Fly-in/Fly-out | Camp Based | 7 days on / 7 days off
An Opportunity to Be In From the Start
Marlin Resources is restarting the McKay River SAGD facility, and we are staffing the control-system role that operations will rely on to get the plant back online. This is a chance to join a thermal operation at the outset.
People joining now will help stand up how maintenance work is planned, permitted, and closed out. We want fitters who have already done this on a live plant, and who will use that experience to set a workable standard here.
A restart demands commitment, adaptability and strong teamwork. In return, it offers meaningful ownership of the outcome and the chance to build a high-performing operation from the ground up.
About the Role
You will report to the Maintenance Lead. The day-to-day work is planning and executing piping jobs on an operating plant: work orders, materials, isolations, then the field work. The field work is spool removal and replacement, valve and PSV installation, flange bolt-up, and support of leak checks and hydrotests. New spools, welding, and project piping are done by qualified contractors. You will work with those crews, and with the site inspection contractor, rather than build pipe in a shop.
