Production Field Foreman

Internship 2 - 4 Years Construction

Job Description

The Production Field Foreman oversees daily field operations, managing a team of operators, technicians, and contractors. You are responsible for the optimization of production assets, the maintenance of equipment, and the strict enforcement of safety protocols. It’s a high-stakes balancing act: you need to keep the output high, the costs low, and the crew out of harm’s way.

This role usually requires being “on-call” and demands a mix of technical troubleshooting and high-level people management.

Responsibility

Monitoring daily volumes and performance metrics to ensure the field is hitting its "numbers." If a well or machine goes down, you're the one coordinating the fix.
Supervising, training, and mentoring Lease Operators, Pumping crews, and Maintenance technicians.
Enforcing Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards and environmental protocols to prevent spills, leaks, or workplace injuries.
Monitoring daily volumes and performance metrics to ensure the field is hitting its "numbers." If a well or machine goes down, you're the one coordinating the fix.
Reviewing and approving field expenses, managing chemical or parts inventories, and finding ways to reduce Operating Expense (LOE).
Hiring and supervising specialized third-party vendors for tasks like workovers, drilling, or facility repairs.
Mentoring junior staff, scheduling shifts, and managing third-party contractors to ensure work is done to specification.

Qualifications

Typically 5–10 years of hands-on experience in field operations (e.g., as a Lead Pumper or Production Technician).
A High School Diploma is required; however, an Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Petroleum Technology, Engineering, or Business is increasingly preferred.
Deep understanding of artificial lift systems (Rod pumps, ESPs, Gas lifts).
Valid Driver’s License (clean record), Well Control certification, and often H2S (Hydrogen Sulfide) safety training.
Strong "thick-skin" leadership, the ability to make high-pressure decisions, and clear communication skills for reporting to executives.
