Founded in 1987, Metrol are global leaders in the innovation, development and operation of wireless down-hole systems, using acoustic, electromagnetic and inductive telemetry.
Metrol’s understanding of this technology and its application plays a major part in our success. Our products are already used by energy companies throughout the world during exploration and production, where the data and control provided allows significant advances in efficiency and safety. Metrol’s commitment to research and development has ensured that the company stays at the forefront of downhole communications and the successful introduction of a range of new products has resulted in company growth.
We are located in the Kirkhill Industrial Estate in Dyce, but operations are global, and we have offices in Dubai, the United States and other worldwide locations.
With a family business culture, we aim to create and provide a working environment that promotes from within, encourages training and development and allows and trusts individuals to maintain a work-life balance.
As part of our ongoing growth, we are actively recruiting a System Modelling Specialist to support the operations team.
The successful candidate will be involved in performance modelling and simulating of Metrol wireless telemetry systems used in downhole oil/gas wells and to provide system parameters to Operations department. The role involves working closely with the operations job planning teams to design and deliver downhole telemetry solutions to the customer.
