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 process engineering support, 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.

Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni pledged today not to fritter away the country's prospective oil wealth on luxury goods or public sector pay, but to invest it in long-term projects that benefit future generations.
Oil exploration at Lake Albert in western Uganda has sparked public excitement over the prospect of imminent wealth. But critics fear the money may be wasted in corrupt deals or on populist policies, as in many oil-producing nations.
London-based Tullow Oil owns three concessions in western Uganda, two of them in 50-50 partnership with Canada's Heritage Oil.
Though still at an exploratory stage, both companies found oil in the areas of their concessions they drilled. They estimate hundreds of millions of barrels but added they cannot be sure until they drill more wells.
If Tullow and Heritage find enough oil, they plan to export it through a pipeline to the Kenyan coast.
"Oil is finite," Reuters quoted Museveni telling a rally to mark 45 years of independence from the UK.
"Therefore our oil and gas revenues will not be exhausted in things like paying wages, importing luxuries and providing subsidies to inefficient sectors of the economy."
But analysts said few leaders of oil-exporting nations manage to resist the urge to lavish petrodollars on themselves or on short-term public spending.
Norway is held up as a notable exception, investing most of its royalties from the 3 million barrels of oil it pumps out daily into a state pension fund for all its citizens.
Uganda said Norwegian consultants are helping put institutions in place to deal with any future oil money.
"These revenues will only be used to create durable capacity for the present and future generations ... constructing more dams to generate cheap electricity, industrialising Uganda, conducting scientific research," Museveni said.
Corruption and militant attacks against oil workers in Nigeria have sparked a debate over the "curse of oil" in Africa and elsewhere.
Critics have claimed successive Nigerian dictators, presidents and corrupt local governors have siphoned off money for private jets and shopping trips while most Nigerians remain poor.
