Flow Assurance Senior Engineer

Overview

Within the Systems Engineering Group, attached to the Flow Assurance Discipline, you will be responsible for performing thermo-hydraulic analysis and thermal design of subsea equipment to meet the production requirements of our most challenging projects. Understanding of production and export systems, operating philosophies, and thermal management is preferred. You will in most instances work embedded in a multidisciplinary project environment where communication with other discipline engineers is key to project success.

Role & Responsibilities

Your main missions will be:

• Perform detailed thermo-hydraulic analysis to validate the subsea system design and subsea equipment performance considering project requirements and constraints from other disciplines
• Perform detail thermal analysis to assess the level of thermal insulation needed on the subsea equipment
• Develop and analyze engineering solutions to specific job requirements
• Write design reports & operating philosophies
• Understand client and internal project needs, identify design parameters and issues, develop and implement solutions
• Support a technical interface with internal and external stakeholders in flow assurance related topics
• Develop tools and processes to improve ways of working, facilitate technology implementation and promote knowledge cross-fertilization with other functions/disciplines
• Be involved in R&D programs to defined and support the development of new products and technologies
• Supervising and supporting (training, sharing knowledge…) other Flow Assurance Engineer within the Flow Assurance Discipline

Skills & Experience

Engineer or scientist with at least 8 years experience in fluid mechanical / energy we’re looking for you to have:

• Solid understanding of multiphase flow & heat transfer analysis within Oil & Gas environment
• Solid knowledge in using CFD/FEA simulators (Fluent, Star CCM+)
• Knowledge of insulation materials and coating for subsea equipment would be greatly appreciate
• Understanding of key flow assurance related issues; hydrate, wax, scale, corrosion, asphaltene, liquid management, operability
• Proficiency in all flow assurance modeling tools including Olga, Pipesim , PVTSim and Multiflash
• Experience within Oil & Gas Industry with emphasis in the area of flow assurance.
• Should be able to perform most of the flow assurance activities without much supervision.
