• Design of process (production separation, sour production sweetening, oil and gas dehydration, produced water treatment, export metering) and/or utility (fuel gas, chemical injection, instrument air, diesel, heat medium, cooling, drainage, power generation) systems;
• Design and Vendor interface for static (pressure vessels, tanks) and rotating (pumps, compressors, engines) equipment packages;
• Piping system design;
• Engineering studies;
• Process Hazards Analysis and Risk Identification;
• Make site visits, both onshore and offshore, to gather existing data/details and survey available space and infrastructure to support facility upgrades, modifications, or remediation;
• Interface with Project Managers, Peers, and Clients, including attending project meetings;
• Assist Project Managers and multidisciplinary design team with establishing the methodology for completing a project. Research, learn and implement differing design techniques which may be industry specific;
• Evaluate proposed designs for efficiency of construction, installation, operability, maintainability, use of materials, integrity, and practicality;
• Coordinate/interface with other engineering disciplines, designers and drafters to ensure an integrated design that meets the project requirements;
• Develop process design basis details and documentation;
• Perform process simulations and develop process flow diagrams with associated heat and material balance tables;
• Perform and/or review sizing calculations for process and utility equipment, piping, in-line instruments, valves, and pipelines using available tools;
• Prepare, modify and/or review data sheets and technical specifications for process equipment, instruments, manual and actuated valves, piping systems, specialty items, etc. to meet specific project requirements;
• Perform and/or review process/mechanical engineering studies (i.e. de-bottlenecking, vent/relief, hydraulic analysis, pipe stress, API 14C compliance, firewater/deluge, material selection) and develop associated reports and spreadsheets;
• Develop and/or review P&IDs, mechanical flow sheets, and safety flow diagrams.
• Prepare equipment location plans in accordance with sound design practices, Client specifications, and industry/ regulatory standards;
• Perform design verification reviews/checks of drawings and other documents prepared by others, both internal and external to the Company, to ensure correctness of design and engineering data as well as completeness;
• Provide technical support to procurement efforts including bid package assembly, bid clarification responses, and technical bid evaluations;
• Diligently maintain organized server-based project files;
• Provide on-site, both onshore and offshore, construction, commissioning, startup and operational assistance;
• Develop regulatory submittals (e.g. BSEE, USCG, and ABS);
• Additional duties as assigned.

• Must have a BS degree or higher in Chemical or Mechanical Engineering;
• Requires ten (10) years' experience in engineering design and/or project management of oil and gas and/or industrial facilities;
• Familiarity with engineering and design requirements for projects associated with oil and gas production facilities and equipment installations, including regulatory compliance (BSEE, USCG, ABS, DNV) as well as applicable codes and standards (CFR, API, ASME, NFPA);
• Experience with developing sizing calculations, technical specifications, drawings, and datasheets associated with oil and gas production facilities including equipment, instrumentation, and specialty piping items;
• Experience performing and documenting engineering studies associated with oil and gas production facilities;
• Requires the ability to travel to client sites, both onshore and offshore;
• Availability and the ability to work on multiple projects simultaneously;
