At WRS, we recruit for a comprehensive range of specialised job roles across the oil and gas industry, covering upstream, midstream, downstream, petrochemicals, liquefied natural gas (LNG), and supporting services sectors. Our recruitment expertise spans exploration, drilling, production operations, pipelines, refining and HSE roles, addressing workforce needs across the entire oil and gas value chain globally.
Upstream Oil and Gas Jobs
Upstream roles focus on the initial stages of oil and gas production, including exploration, drilling, and reservoir management. WRS recruits for positions such as drilling and completions engineers, well services and intervention experts, production operations personnel, subsurface and reservoir engineers, and specialists in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). These roles involve activities like exploration, appraisal, designing drilling programs, supervising well interventions, and optimising reservoir performance to maximise hydrocarbon extraction efficiently and safely.
Additional Roles We Recruit For
We also recruit extensively for hands-on operational and leadership positions across the field and rig environment. This includes drillers, assistant drillers, toolpushers, rig managers (Company Man), directional drillers, wireline and cementing operators, coiled tubing and snubbing operators, mud loggers and mud engineers. Our network also covers petroleum, reservoir, drilling, completions and production engineers and supervisors – ensuring our clients have the right expertise at every stage of the upstream process.
Midstream Careers
The midstream sector plays a crucial role in moving hydrocarbons from the point of extraction to refineries and end markets. At WRS, we recruit skilled professionals across all areas of transportation, storage and processing, ensuring the industry’s infrastructure operates safely, efficiently and reliably. Our expertise spans onshore and offshore pipeline engineers, storage and terminal operations staff, logistics and transportation specialists, and gas processing engineers. These teams are responsible for the construction, maintenance and operation of vital pipelines, terminals and processing facilities that keep energy flowing across global supply chains.
Additional Roles We Recruit For
We also support a broad range of midstream operational and management positions, including pipeline engineers, storage terminal operators, transportation managers, logistics coordinators and pipeline integrity specialists. These professionals are essential to maintaining the continuous, safe and optimised movement of hydrocarbons through complex midstream networks.
Downstream and Petrochemicals Jobs
The downstream sector transforms crude oil and natural gas into the fuels, chemicals, and everyday products that power global industries. At WRS, we support clients across refining, petrochemicals and LNG by sourcing skilled professionals who keep complex processing facilities operating safely, efficiently and reliably. Our recruitment covers refining operations teams, fuel distribution and retail specialists and process engineers supporting optimisation, maintenance and major turnarounds.
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Roles
Our recruitment also extends deeply into the specialist LNG sector, supporting liquefaction plants, regasification terminals, and all associated handling operations. This includes sourcing liquefaction technicians, regasification operators and storage managers who ensure the safe, seamless movement of LNG across global supply chains.
Additional Roles We Recruit For
Typical downstream and petrochemical positions include refinery operators, process engineers, turnaround managers and fuel distribution managers.
Across LNG, we also recruit LNG plant operators, LNG loading and unloading supervisors, control room technicians and LNG terminal managers, providing clients with the specialised talent required for high-hazard, high-precision LNG operations.
