Materials Science Specialist
Aramco energizes the world economy.
Aramco occupies a unique position in the global energy industry. We are the world's largest producer of hydrocarbons (oil and gas), with the lowest upstream carbon intensity of any major producer.
With our significant investment in technology and infrastructure, we strive to maximize the value of the energy we produce for the world along with a commitment to enhance Aramco's value to society.
Headquartered in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and with offices around the world, we combine market discipline with a generations' spanning view of the future, born of our nine decades experience as responsible stewards of the Kingdom's vast hydrocarbon resources. This responsibility has driven us to deliver significant societal and economic benefits to not just the Kingdom, but also to a vast number of communities, economies, and countries that rely on the vital and reliable energy that we supply.
We are one of the most profitable companies in the world, as well as amongst the top five global companies by market capitalization.
Overview
We are seeking an experienced material science specialist with focus on metallic materials with focus on Environmentally Assisted Cracking in oil and gas industry to Materials & Corrosion Services Division of Research & Analytical Services Department.
The Material & Corrosion Service Division is well equipped with unique facilities including coatings testing, mechanical testing (erosion, wear, slow strain tester, hardness etc.), environmental cracking testing.
The Metallurgical- Environmentally Assisted Cracking Specialist will be a driving force in contributing to sustain Saudi Aramco as a reliable global energy supplier.
Key Responsibilities
Carryout laboratory testing and investigation studies related to materials failures, assessment of new materials under simulated field conditions.
