Job Title: Senior Process Engineer

Position Type: Contract – Fixed Term

Job Summary:

The Senior Process Engineer will play a key role in the front-end planning, design, development, and optimization of small scale LNG processing facilities. This role involves providing technical expertise in process engineering for LNG liquefaction, regasification, and storage systems. The candidate will work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams to ensure efficient and safe project execution, from conceptual design to commissioning.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Technical Leadership:
   • Lead process design activities for LNG projects, including liquefaction, regasification, and related systems.
   • Provide expertise in process simulation, heat and material balance, equipment sizing, and optimization of LNG processes.
   • Act as the technical focal point for process engineering during all project phases.
2. Process Design & Simulation:
   • Develop and review PFDs (Process Flow Diagrams) and P&IDs (Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams).
   • Perform process simulations using tools such as Aspen HYSYS, Aspen Plus, or other simulation software.
   • Conduct heat and material balance calculations and equipment sizing (compressors, heat exchangers, pumps, etc.).
3. LNG System Optimization:
   • Evaluate LNG liquefaction cycles (e.g., C3MR, SMR, DMR) and recommend improvements.
   • Support process optimization to enhance plant efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and minimize emissions.
   • Validate and optimize OEM design for modularized equipment packages
4. Project Execution Support:
   • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (mechanical, electrical, instrumentation) during FEED, detailed engineering, and commissioning phases.
   • Review and approve technical documents, vendor packages, and specifications for LNG systems.
5. Safety & Compliance:
   • Ensure designs comply with international standards and industry codes (API, ASME, NFPA, and ISO).
   • Participate in HAZOPs, HAZIDs, and risk assessments.

Qualifications & Experience:

• Education:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering or related discipline. A Master’s degree is a plus.
• Experience:
  • Minimum 8-10 years of process engineering experience, with at least 5 years focused on LNG projects.
  • Strong understanding of LNG liquefaction and regasification technologies.
  • Experience with simulation tools like Aspen HYSYS, ProMax, or UniSim.
• Technical Skills:
  • Proficient in developing PFDs, P&IDs, and process models.
  • Familiarity with major LNG processes, including C3MR, SMR, DMR, and ORV vaporization systems.
  • Knowledge of industry standards such as API, ASME, and ISO.
• Soft Skills:
  • Strong leadership and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication abilities.
  • Ability to work effectively in a team-oriented environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with modular LNG plants.
• Exposure to cryogenic processes, compressors, and rotating equipment.
• Knowledge of energy efficiency strategies in LNG systems.
