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.

President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva will visit Bolivia before the end of the year to discuss increasing Bolivian gas supplies to Brazil, Foreign Minister Celso Amorim said today.
Any potential increase in gas deliveries would require new investment by Brazil's state energy giant Petrobras in exploration and production in Bolivia.
Petrobras froze around $2 billion in planned investment there after Bolivia increased taxes and nationalised the natural gas sector last year. It has confined spending to maintenance of existing production levels, but Amorim said there has been progress made lately toward the resumption of some investment.
"We need the gas and this is pretty obvious. Brazil is Bolivia's main client and I think that with the climate of understanding that has been achieved, we'll come to a deal," Amorim told Reuters.
He said that before Lula's visit he and his Bolivian counterpart Evo Morales will have a chance to chat informally at the Ibero-American Summit in Chile this week. He could not comment on a planned visit by Petrobras chief executive, Jose Sergio Gabrielli, to La Paz tomorrow.
Analysts have long been warning of a natural gas shortage in Brazil, but last week the crisis became evident when Petrobras had to trim deliveries to distributors in order to feed gas-fired thermoelectric power plants.
"Brazil is growing at 5% a year, and we will need more energy. It will have to come from various places and the more comes from the region (Latin America), the better," Amorim said.
Petrobras is preparing to start importing liquefied natural gas next year, which it says will guarantee fuel for gas-fired plants just at times when they are working. In Bolivia's case, imports via a pipeline come on a permanent, take-or-pay basis.
The reduction of gas supplies to distributors by Petrobras highlights the supply challenges facing South American consumers, including Argentina and Chile.
After Bolivia naturalised its gas and oil industries in May last year, the failure of Brazil to develop its own gas reserves and the growing risks of energy rationing have come under the spotlight. Brazil suffered energy rationing in 2001, brought about by droughts and years of poor planning.
