Blue Chip MRC and Field Services

Edmonton

The Intermediate Measurement Specialist provides technical measurement, regulatory,

and operational support to Blue Chip MRC's upstream and midstream oil and gas

clients. The role combines field-based measurement expertise with data analysis,

regulatory compliance, production accounting support, and practical operational

problem-solving.

Working within Blue Chip's measurement and regulatory team, the Intermediate

Measurement Specialist is responsible for ensuring that measurement systems,

volumetric data, metering documentation, and associated reporting processes are

accurate, reliable, compliant, and defensible.

The position requires an individual who can work independently in both field and office

environments, collaborate effectively with Operations, Maintenance, Engineering,

Production Accounting, and regulatory teams, and recognize when measurement issues

have operational, financial, or regulatory consequences.

The successful candidate will have a robust working knowledge of oil and gas

measurement practices and Alberta regulatory requirements, particularly AER Directive

017 and Directive 060, with familiarity with Directive 076 considered an asset. They will

be comfortable reviewing measurement data, investigating discrepancies, supporting

audits, coordinating field measurement activities, and translating technical findings into

practical recommendations.

The role reflects Blue Chip's broader approach of combining measurement

expertise, field execution, regulatory compliance, and audit-ready documentation to help

operators reduce risk, improve measurement integrity, and make better operational

decisions.
