MY DAY
Find and fix problems
For most of the day, we're usually inspecting sites for underlying issues. We look for things like corrosion, damaged equipment, oil leaks, loose wiring and other abnormal conditions that could cause problems later.
We either immediately fix the problem if we have the required tools to do so, or we plan for their repair in the near future - especially if the problem is related to energized equipment as we would need to take it out of service before repairing it.
When we're finished, we drive back, clean up and record any important data.
