Chemical Process Engineer

Business Area: Engineering and Engineering Services

• Monitor and report on operational performance process units and important variables affecting plant efficiency, capacity, catalyst performance, emissions, and process safety.
• Evaluate process and equipment performance to reduce plant upsets and generate solutions to resolve problems with process chemistry and equipment through troubleshooting, process modeling, data analysis, process tests, and technical support to the operations organization.
• Complete process engineering studies and provide comprehensive process engineering support during collaborative design of new installations and processes.
• Prioritize the development of projects to increase production capacity, improve energy efficiency, and enhance EHS performance.
• Approve new operational procedures and equipment operating limits. Conduct training for operations and other groups to address changes and for annual refresher training.
• Participate in MOCs, PHAs, LOPA studies, and incident investigations and support implementation of process safety and other EHS solutions.
• Assist Maintenance and Operations during turnarounds by providing pre-turnaround process engineering recommendations, helping plan specialty work, performing equipment inspections related to process issues, coordinating catalyst replacements, and participate in plant restarts.

• BS degree in Chemical Engineering
• 2 years minimum process engineering experience within a chemical manufacturing, refining, or oil and gas industry.
• Willingness to work alternative schedules on a short-term basis to support 24 hour/7 day per week operations including turnaround process unit startups, shutdowns, upsets, and catalyst reductions.
