As Director of European Operations, you will be responsible for actively supporting a wide variety of membership interests across Europe with a focus on HSE, training and regulatory issues.
This full-time contract position will allow you to use your in-depth knowledge of the global oil and gas industry to build a substantial network within the association and the industry within Europe.
You will take on a Project Management lead role and be responsible for managing and delivery within budget. You are to deliver Prospect projects, using your own technical expertise and experience in Engineering Design and Computational Analysis as well as group-wide technical support.
Design and specification of hydraulic systems for marine and offshore cranes.
Calculations in accordance with the regulations of the classification companies.
Follow-up of workshops and subcontractors at home and abroad.
Participation in design and product development for our projects.
You will report to the Principal Engineer, you will support the execution of Prospect projects, using your own technical expertise and experience in Engineering Design, Computational Analysis as well as group-wide technical support.
In this key role, you’ll have an important part to play in the wide range of new Oil and Gas developments we’re rolling out across the globe. And when you realise the scale and scope of what will often be $multi-billion projects, you’ll understand what an exciting opportunity that presents. Providing technical expertise on every aspect of Process Control, the challenges you’ll face will be as diverse as the projects you’re involved in. As well as working closely with Development Managers and Subsurface professionals to make the most of our existing sites and develop new proposals, you’ll oversee the work of contractors from conceptual studies all the way through to the detailed design stage. You’ll also contribute significantly to the development of less experienced colleagues.
US independent Anadarko Petroleum has kicked off a pre-front end engineering design study for an enhanced oil recovery project at its majority-owned K2 complex in the deep-water US Gulf.
According to the company, water injection, and injection of nitrogen or flue gas are all being evaluated in a bid to maintain K2's reservoir pressure and extend its life. Anadarko said earlier this year it lowered reserves expectations from the complex.
K2 and K2 North, in Green Canyon blocks 518, 561, 562, 563, 605, 606 and 607, are being developed via subsea wells tied back to the Marco Polo tension-leg platform.
Gross daily production this year has averaged just over 37,000 barrels of oil equivalent from six wells within the K2 complex.
The fields continue to experience nagging well glitches that have forced the operator to shut in a number of producers since the field came on stream in the middle of 2005.
Anadarko recently moved the Noble semi-submersible drilling rig Amos Runner to Block 518 to repair a failed subsurface safety value on the number-3 well. The well is scheduled to come back on stream later this quarter.
The well first came on stream last year at a rate of 9200 barrels of oil per day and 4.5 million cubic feet of gas per day.
Last year, the Block 562 number-3 well was shut in for several months after a subsea safety valve stuck shut.
Two delineation wells are planned at K2 this year. During the third quarter, the drillship Deepwater Millennium will spud a well in Green Canyon Block 606, while the semisub Belford Dolphin will drill a test in nearby Block 561.
