Oil Jobs in Canada – Energy Jobs
With some of the world's largest reserves of petroleum in Alberta, jobs in Canada's
oil and gas exploration are plentiful. There is also a significant number of offshore
oil jobs in the Hibernia oil fields, off the shored of Newfoundland in eastern Canada.
Some of Canada's highest demand oil jobs include supervisor jobs in oil and gas
drilling and servicing, heavy-duty equipment mechanics as welding jobs and related
machine operator jobs which are listed on the Canadian Government's Eligibility
Criteria for Federal Skilled Worker applications as of June 26, 2010.
Oil jobs in petroleum exploration and production employ numerous skilled people
and are centred in the province of Alberta, extending into the provinces of British
Columbia, Saskatchewan and to Manitoba. In the north of Alberta, the oil sands are
centred in Fort McMurray. A significant percentage of employees working in these
oil sands are from outside of Alberta. Opportunities in Fort McMurray are very attractive
for foreign workers.

may include: Offshore Installation Manager, Operations Coordinator, Operations Team
Leader, Dynamic Positioning Operator, Ballast Control Operator, Scaffolders, Helicopter
