Junior Slurry Engineer

We are looking for a Junior Slurry Engineer with 1–5 years of field experience in mud engineering, drilling fluids, or slurry systems to support a remote industrial waste slurrification & reinjection project in Saudi Arabia . Position Overview: This is a field-based operational role supporting slurry preparation, monitoring, mixing, conditioning, and low-pressure transfer through tank systems up to the pre-injection stage. The role focuses on maintaining slurry targets (density, solids loading, rheology, and suspension stability), monitoring equipment performance around shakers/grinders/tanks, and escalating abnormalities. Responsibilities: Support slurry preparation activities: mixing, dilution, circulation, conditioning, and tank sequencing across active/agitated and pre-injection tanks. Conduct and record routine checks and observations (as per site procedure): density, viscosity / gel behavior, solids content estimate / trend indicators, suspension / settling behavior. Support tank-to-tank transfers and maintain stable low-pressure flow through hoses/lines/transfer pumps. Observe shaker performance and report poor separation, unusual solids carryover, screen issues, or process abnormalities. Support grinder integration activities (where used) and report throughput limitations or abnormal solids behavior (settling, plugging risk, poor grind performance). Support chemical handling and addition as instructed by the Field Slurry Engineer; maintain safe handling discipline and dosing records (chemicals may include dispersants, surfactants, biocides, scavengers, as approved). Maintain accurate daily logs, sampling records, tank checks, and shift handover notes. Maintain strong housekeeping and safety discipline around tanks, rotating equipment, lines/hoses, and solids-handling equipment. Comply with company procedures, client requirements, and all site HSE rules. Qualifications: Technical diploma or engineering degree (petroleum /chemical/ mechanical/process or related). Hands-on-field experience of 1–5 years in mud engineering, drilling fluids, slurry handling, or similar fluid-process operations. Practical knowledge of shale shakers and tank-based mixing /agitation/recirculation. Exposure to slurry injection / cuttings reinjection / waste handling / solids-control operations. Comfortable working at a remote isolated land site in Saudi Arabia. Strong safety mindset and field discipline.
