The role involves typical hazards associated with upstream oil and gas production sites.

Prolonged standing may also be required.

The incumbent must be able to drive a vehicle, typically a car or light truck, and frequently enter and exit the vehicle. Regular walking on uneven ground, navigating around obstacles such as pipes or low rails, and using stairs are also part of the job requirements.
