SBM Offshore Guyana is inviting applications for its 2025 Trainee Technician Programme, a career-launching initiative aimed at building a new generation of technical talent for the offshore oil and gas sector.
The company said the programme is designed to provide hands-on training in five critical areas: electrical, mechanical, cargo, instrument, and production operations. It specifically targets technical professionals interested in supporting maintenance activities on and around Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading (FPSO) vessels.
