Specialist, Gas Planning (IGPA Department

JOB PURPOSE

Develop and maintain long-term gas, NGL and associated product capacity, production and infrastructure plans for ADNOC Gas. Integrate upstream feed profiles, asset capabilities, project schedules and demand requirements into a single consistent long-term production plan that supports the Business Plan and enables reliable supply commitments across the gas value chain.

• Consolidate and validate upstream feed gas profiles, associated gas volumes and new stream tie-ins from ADNOC Upstream and Group entities.
• Translate asset capacities, operating envelopes, turnaround and shutdown schedules and reliability assumptions into realistic forecasts.
• Develop long-term capacity and infrastructure plans, identifying where and when constraints will emerge.
• Perform long-term supply and demand balancing and support optimisation of molecule allocation across assets, products and customers.
• Quantify curtailment and production loss exposure and support mitigation options.
• Develop production and capacity scenarios and conduct sensitivity analysis on key planning assumptions.
• Maintain planning models, datasets and tools with full data integrity, version control and documented assumptions.

• Develop Upstream profiles, project schedules and demand cases move continuously the plan must stay current without becoming unstable.
• Reconciling conflicting inputs from Operations, Projects, Engineering, Marketing and Upstream into one agreed number.
• Working at portfolio level while the deep technical bench sits in Engineering – influence without ownership of that resource.
• Balancing planning realism against commercial ambition when commitments are being made off the plan.
• Establishing planning discipline in a newly formed department.

Be a single, trusted long-term production plan used by Finance, Marketing and Operations without parallel versions.

• Improve forecast accuracy, evidenced through lookback and variance analysis.
• Develop Clean, respected interfaces with Upstream, Engineering, Operations and Projects.
• Aaanalyse the Constraints and curtailment exposure surfaced early enough to act on.

Bachelors degree in Engineering or equivalent with Around 8 years of relevant experience, including at least 5 in production planning, long-term planning, integrated planning or gas value chain planning in oil and gas, LNG or petrochemicals. Engineering foundation with a planning and commercial lens is the ideal shape.

• LONG-TERM PRODUCTION & CAPACITY PLANNING – demonstrated ownership of multi-year production, capacity or supply–demand balance models feeding a business plan.
• 2. GAS / NGL / LNG TECHNICAL FOUNDATION – sound understanding of gas processing, NGL extraction and fractionation and LNG operations, including capacity constraints and operating envelopes.
• 3. ANALYTICAL & MODELLING CAPABILITY – advanced Excel essential, with structured model building, data integrity discipline and version control.
• 4. CROSS-DISCIPLINE RECONCILIATION – proven ability to work across technical, commercial and financial teams and reconcile conflicting inputs into one agreed plan.
• 5. PLANNING RIGOUR & COMMUNICATION – documented assumptions, clear scenario and sensitivity presentation, and excellent written and spoken English.
