Wood is recruiting for a core Instrument Technician for the Dana Triton on a 2*3 rotation.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Instrumentation & control technicians are responsible for the assembly, installation, removal and replacement,
disassembly, test functionality and operability, maintenance and repair of instrumentation systems and their
associated system components. Such systems can be of an electronic, electro-mechanical or pneumatic
technology which may be used to indicate, record and control a wide variety of equipment, plant and machinery.
An integral aspect of the instrumentation & control technician is the ability to locate and identify faults in a timely
manner to restore plant and equipment to acceptable conditions. The wide range of possible equipment and
systems also require a good knowledge of, and the ability to effectively use, an equally wide range of test and
measuring equipment. Instrumentation & control technicians typically need a good understanding of engineering
theory, the functions of components within systems and the effect on system operation of failure.

• Deal promptly and effectively with problems within their control and report those that have been, and those
that cannot be, solved.
• Take responsibility for supervising and mentoring others where appropriate.
• Demonstrate the ability to coordinate work scopes and SIMOPS effectively within a wider team, as required.
• Demonstrate effective handover of responsibility and equipment at the end of a task.
• Take responsibility and ownership of personal development, set targets to plan on how these will be achieved.
• Support operational requirements, achieve targets and maintain records as required, thereby minimising
backlog and downtime.
• Maintain compliance with legislative requirements and company policies, procedures and standards.
• Maintain and demonstrate ongoing technical competence and skill set to current standards and updates.
• Support innovation and development for improvements.

• TMI02 - Level measurement and control systems - Reconfigure, calibrate and function check a displacement
type level transmitter and a SMART type level transmitter and record ITRs
• TMI04 - Temperature measurement and control systems - Commission a temperature detector (RTD or
thermocouple) and a SMART temperature transmitter including a range change by a 20% increase or decrease
of its current settings, recalibration and full loop check from heat source to transmitter output, record ITRs.
• TMI14 - Flow measurement and control systems - Recommission a differential pressure flow transmitter into
a fully operational condition, and calibration check the transmitter and record ITRs
• TMI17 - Maintain, calibrate and commission a process control valve - Remove a process control valve
positioner and actuator, replace valve stem gland packing, reassemble and body pressure test. Set up and
stroke test to operate open/closed on a 4-20 mA control signal, complete full loop calibration and record ITRs
