What are you going to do
- Support Facilities Lead for technical studies of pipelines and subsea interconnection scopes
- Manage pipelines engineering study and oversee required external engineering scopes
- Contributes to all stages of Development Process, including internal and external engagement
- Liaise and interface with relevant entities in COMPANY and acts as focal point for pipelines
- Prepare material and documentation to support management and shareholder meeting/ validation
- Seeks innovative engineering solutions with a strong focus on operational and cost optimization
- Works independently, adapting to a dynamic and evolving work-scope within narrow timeframes
- Possesses excellent communication and interpersonal skills to work in a transverse project team
- Ensure that all COMPANY and Industry HSE requirements are adhered to in the development studies
- Develop pipeline/ flexible technologies evaluation and comparison further, based on existing exercises from previous preliminary study phase
- Identify possible optimized options of subsea interconnection routings, pipeline and flexible technologies, coatings, cables, and crossing designs for further technical screening.
- Perform technical evaluation to screen-out options and to retain several for conceptual phase. In conceptual phase, retained options would be evaluated further to select the best one for Pre-FEED
- Liaise with external technology providers to gather feedback of technical advantages and limitations, delivery timeline, feasibility of implementation in COMPANY field, and costs of products and services (in coordination with COMPANY Contract & Procurement entity)
- Manage required external engineering scopes, from external company identification, SOW preparation, technical discussions, external engineering supervision, technical reviews, and ensure timely completion of these scopes
- Provide technical inputs to support cost estimation of pipelines for each development study phase
- Proactively seek and propose technical solutions for CAPEX optimization and implement them into pipeline engineering design
- Coordinate with relevant entities in COMPANY to support pipelines engineering, including Geomatics, Geotech & Geophysics, Corrosion, PLR, Structure, Process, Project execution representative, etc.
- Develop pipelines project execution and planning, including constructability evaluation
- Prepare derogations when required from COMPANY Referential, and manage the approval process
- Identify technical risks and integrate into project risk register and propose mitigation plan into the design.
- Participate and contribute to all internal and vendor reviews / meetings, including project technical review, operational and safety engineering review and risk management
- Prepare presentations and other documentations to facilitate progression of the project through the development process stage gates.
- Collaborate with other sub-departments within and contribute to improvements transversely.
- The Integrated Development Engineering Group (IDEG) of Phase 4 is set up to conduct the development studies required to maintain Al Shaheen potential above 300 kbopd beyond Phase 3.1 development. Its purpose will be to identify and evaluate attractive development options while accounting for the growing field maturity and the need for further appraisal.
- The pipelines engineering studies aims at defining the best technical solutions for subsea interconnections including pipelines/ flexibles/ cables technologies, routing and crossing design from Screening phase to Pre-FEED. The objective is to minimize CAPEX without sacrificing safety aspects of project and operation.
- The job holder is responsible for delivering high quality pipelines engineering and for introducing new technologies in the context of a large and complex brownfield and of a multicultural standalone company.
- This position is an onshore position, with business travel as required.
