• Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs)
• Heat & Material Balances
• Utility Consumption Calculations
• Equipment Datasheets
• Operating Philosophies
• Cause & Effect Diagrams
• Perform process simulations using Aspen HYSYS, Aspen Plus, or equivalent

software.

• Conduct equipment sizing calculations for vessels, separators, heat

exchangers, pumps, compressors, relief valves, and associated process

systems.

• Review and approve vendor documents and technical submissions.

TECHNICAL LEADERSHIP

• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers.
• Serve as the discipline focal point for process engineering matters.
• Coordinate closely with Mechanical, Piping, Instrumentation, Electrical,

Structural, and Project Engineering teams.

• Participate in design reviews and interdisciplinary engineering workshops.

PROCESS SAFETY

• Lead and participate in process safety studies including:
• HAZID
• HAZOP
• SIL Assessment
• LOPA
• Constructability Reviews
• Ensure designs comply with applicable industry codes, standards, and project

specifications.

• Support process safety management and risk mitigation activities.

PROJECT EXECUTION

• Support project planning, scheduling, and resource estimation activities.
• Monitor engineering progress and identify technical risks and mitigation

measures.

• Interface with clients, consultants, vendors, and third-party stakeholders.
• Support commissioning, start-up, troubleshooting, and operational readiness

activities where required.

REQUIREMENTS

EDUCATION

• Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Engineering or related engineering discipline.
• Professional Engineer certification is an added advantage.

EXPERIENCE

• 8 - 10 years of relevant process engineering experience within Oil & Gas,

Energy, Petrochemical, LNG, FPSO, FLNG, or EPC industries.

• Proven experience in FEED, Detailed Engineering, EPC, EPCIC, or Brownfield

projects.

• Experience working on offshore production facilities, process packages, or

energy infrastructure projects is preferred.
