Job Summary

The Master Electrician will serve as a senior field execution lead and project management resource, supporting a large‑scale corrective action and electrical reliability improvement program across upstream oil and gas facilities. This role involves performing and directing high (480

VAC) and low (24

VDC) voltage electrical work, leading field walk‑downs, developing cost and schedule estimates, managing daily cost and crew performance, and driving scope execution efficiency. The position requires deep upstream electrical expertise combined with strong field‑based project management and cost control skills.

The primary responsibilities include leading and performing corrective actions on high voltage electrical equipment such as breakers, fuses, transformers, and protection systems. Identifying and remediating panel, termination, and installation deficiencies, as well as supporting electrical reliability upgrades driven by audits, incident findings, or integrity programs, are crucial components of the role. The Master Electrician will execute and oversee electrical preventative maintenance activities on both high and low voltage systems.

The role also involves leading an extensive grounding and bonding campaign, verifying grounding system integrity at various facilities, and supporting instrumentation power and signal circuits. Coordination with operations, I&E engineers, and facilities engineering for isolations, testing, and re‑energization is essential. The Master Electrician must interpret and work from electrical one‑lines, wiring diagrams, loop drawings, and hazardous area classifications.

Project management responsibilities include leading detailed field walk‑downs, developing field‑level cost estimates, supporting schedule development, and planning daily and weekly crew loading. The role demands adjusting priorities based on operational needs and providing daily oversight to electricians, I&E technicians, and contract resources. Cost tracking, performance management, and ensuring scope management are key to maintaining control and efficiency.

Safety and compliance are paramount, requiring the enforcement of electrical safe work practices, LOTO, energized work controls, and facility safety requirements. Working safely in hazardous locations and leading JSAs, pre‑task planning, and field execution meetings are critical aspects of the job.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead and perform corrective actions on high voltage electrical equipment, including breakers, fuses, transformers, and protection systems.
  • Identify and remediate panel, termination, and installation deficiencies, including lugging, conductor sizing, torque verification, labeling, and code compliance.
  • Support electrical reliability upgrades driven by audits, incident findings, or integrity programs.
  • Execute and oversee electrical preventative maintenance (PM) activities on high and low voltage systems, including breaker exercising, infrared inspections, torquing, insulation testing, and visual inspections.
  • Lead an extensive grounding and bonding campaign, including field inspections, testing, documentation, and remediation of grounding deficiencies.
  • Verify grounding system integrity at panels, equipment skids, structures, and facilities in accordance with site standards and industry best practices.
  • Support instrumentation power and signal circuits and control wiring associated with transmitters, analyzers, and control panels.
  • Coordinate isolations, testing, and re‑energization with operations, I&E engineers, and facilities engineering.
  • Interpret and work from electrical one‑lines, wiring diagrams, loop drawings, and hazardous area classifications.
  • Lead detailed field walk‑downs to identify electrical deficiencies, validate scope, and define corrective action work packages.
  • Document findings clearly and support scope definition suitable for execution, estimating, and prioritization.
  • Develop field‑level cost estimates for corrective action and PM work, including labor, materials, equipment, and contractor support.
  • Support schedule development by identifying logical work sequencing, outage requirements, and execution constraints.
  • Plan and…
