JOB SUMMARY
A petroleum inspector is a professional who is responsible for inspecting and monitoring the quantity and quality of petroleum products throughout the various stages of production, storage, transportation, and distribution.
Inspectors use industry standards, regulations, and specifications to measure, sample and document their inspections. Their primary job is to physically take measurements, temperatures, and samples of bulk movements of petroleum products between suppliers and trading partners. Inspections are primarily performed on shore-based storage tanks, typically 50-60 feet tall and marine vessels and barges. These measurements result in documentation that is used for the sale or exchange of bulk petroleum between the interested parties.
This is an entry-level position where the Company will provide all the training necessary to teach a strong understanding of petroleum products, safety procedures, and industry regulations. A potential inspector must have excellent communication skills to report their findings to clients, suppliers, and other stakeholders in an extremely timely manner.
Hawaii's petroleum consumption is relatively high compared to other US states, due in part to its isolated location and lack of domestic energy resources. The transportation sector is the largest consumer of petroleum in Hawaii, accounting for about 80% of total petroleum consumption in the state.
