Qualifications

• Engineering degree or equivalent technical qualification.
• Significant experience in Flow Assurance engineering within offshore Oil & Gas developments.
• Strong experience supporting major projects through FEED, detailed engineering and/or EPSCC/EPCI phases.
• Strong understanding of multiphase production systems and the interaction between reservoir, wells, subsea production systems, pipelines and topsides facilities.
• Experience reviewing and challenging contractor Flow Assurance studies and engineering deliverables.
• Experience with industry-standard Flow Assurance simulation and modelling tools.
• Good understanding of relevant industry codes, standards and project engineering practices.
• Strong multidisciplinary interface and stakeholder-management skills.
• Able to work effectively with contractors, engineering specialists and geographically dispersed project teams.

Responsibilities

• Lead and coordinate Flow Assurance engineering activities throughout the EPSCC phase.
• Define, implement, follow up and control the Flow Assurance studies required for the project.
• Supervise Flow Assurance studies and simulations performed by engineering contractors and specialist suppliers.
• Review Flow Assurance study results, assumptions, methodologies and engineering deliverables.
• Analyse study results and develop or validate recommendations for incorporation into the design of production facilities.
• Ensure Flow Assurance requirements and recommendations are correctly implemented within detailed engineering.
• Identify critical Flow Assurance subjects requiring additional specialist or independent third-party engineering verification.
• Monitor contractor engineering performance and ensure work is delivered in accordance with project specifications, procedures and applicable technical standards.
• Provide Flow Assurance input to the design of the SURF, SPS and Topsides/FPSO systems.
• Coordinate Flow Assurance interfaces with Subsurface and other engineering disciplines to ensure reservoir and production assumptions are consistent with system operating envelopes.
• Interface with disciplines including Process, Pipelines, Subsea, Safety, Commissioning and Operations.
• Review and comment on key engineering documents issued by the different project packages and ensure Flow Assurance interfaces are properly managed.
• Support the definition of operating philosophies and procedures, identifying Flow Assurance constraints that require further analysis or mitigation.
• Participate in relevant project technical reviews and HAZOP activities where required.
• Identify Flow Assurance risks, uncertainties and potential operational constraints and ensure appropriate mitigation measures are incorporated into the design.
• Support optimisation of the production system while maintaining the required levels of safety, operability, reliability and technical integrity.
• Liaise with specialist engineering resources and technical authorities as required.
• Support the capture of lessons learned and technical feedback throughout project execution.
