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.
Tullow Oil has hit oil and gas with the Nzizi-2 appraisal well, in the Albertine basin onshore Uganda.
The well confirmed sand development and oil accumulations to the south west of Nzizi-1 and, for the first time in its drilling drive in this region, found the presence of "very productive dry gas".
Nzizi-2 hit four hydrocarbon-bearing zones with the deepest zone at 950 metres.
This zone did not flow oil during tests, said exploration boss Angus McCoss, but held a large amount of oil in-place and is considered a "significant long-term upside exploration objective".
A second, two-metre oil-bearing sand was sampled and indicated moveable oil in a reservoir with high permeability.
Another, four-metre thick zone at 675 metres, flowed oil but is expected to require artificial lift to produce commercially.
The five-metre thick natural gas play, at a depth of 800 metres, flowed at a rate of 14 million cubic feet per day.
Tullow is examining whether the gas can be used as fuel for an early production scheme.
Details of the initial development will be known once results from the Mputa-3 and Mputa-4 appraisal wells have been drilled, following on from Nzizi-2 - and a new 3D survey finished.
