Project Overview

Louisiana LNG is located approximately 11 miles southwest of Lake Charles, Louisiana. The project includes a mid-scale, mixed-refrigerant Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) production and export facility on the west side of the Calcasieu River. There are five identical process plants. Each process plant consists of one gas pre-treatment unit, one condensate stabilization unit, and four Chart heavy hydrocarbon (HHC) removal and liquefaction groups.

The facility will include associated utilities, refrigerant storage, three 235,000m3 full-containment LNG storage tanks, and three marine berths.



Job Summary

In this role, you will lead a team and support material planning and/or material coordination for a project. Planning involves providing work process and system expertise during the early project stages. Coordination will include communicating material availability, accuracy, and timeliness to the correct location. Your team will ensure the location receives the required materials to complete the project.

Major Responsibilities

• Supervises a team of materials planning personnel on a medium-sized project
• Provides work process and systems expertise, advice, and direction for materials management planning activities during the front-end and early stages of the project
• Collaborates with Engineering and Construction to ensure the material identification methodology permits accurate reporting of material status and distribution of materials according to the Project Advanced Work Packaging Program.
• Provides input and support all the disciplines (Civil, Mechanical, Instrumentation, Electrical, etc.) with the development of the identification (Tagging) of all material associated with each discipline.
• Establishes the data set that is going to be used in the model to ensure this data can be shared and used among the various software applications used by the project – including any subcontractor systems identified in the contract
• Supports Project Management with the development of the Project Execution Plan, Supply Chain Assignment Schedule (SCAS), Project Automation Plan, and the development of the Materials Management Plan Support Project Controls with the development of the project steel and spool fabrication curves and shares information associated with material lead times to support the development of the project schedule
• Supports engineering with the prioritization of Material Requisition releases and IFC of drawings to the various fabricators (Rebar, Embeds, Steel, Spools, etc.) required to support the Project Advanced Work Packaging program
• Assists the purchasing discipline with formation of the major bulk materials orders. Performs analysis of Fabricators’ capacity and ability to meet Project Advanced Work Packaging requirements during bid analysis. Identifies material priorities based on schedule and construction requirements. Monitors and interacts directly with the fabricators (Rebars, Embeds, Steel, Spool, etc.) to establish the fabrication priorities, provide constructability reporting, expedite the RFI…
