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.

Australia’s Origin Energy, the operator of the Kupe gas project on New Zealand’s offshore Taranaki basin, is to sidetrack the Kupe South-7 development well after being unable to dislodge stuck pipe, partners in the project said.
The Kupe project’s three development wells are being sunk on a “batch drilling” basis, with each of three sections being completed in all three wells before the rig proceeds deeper. The jack-up rig Ensco 107 was drilling the deepest section below 3116 metres in the KS-7 well when the pipe became stuck.
Origin said earlier this week the drill string had become stuck at a depth of 3454 metres in the target Farewell formation. This reservoir section will now have to b redrilled.
The KS-6 and KS-8 wells have already been sunk to depth and completed.
The Kupe project lies about 30 kilometres off New Zealand's South Island on permit PML 38146.
The three wells will be tied in to an unmanned platform, which will be linked to shore by a pipeline. First gas is expected by mid-2009, NZ Oil & Gas said in a statement.
Origin operates the project with a 50% stake, with the remaining stakes being held by subsidiaries of local players Genesis Energy (31%) and New Zealand Oil & Gas (NZOG) (15%), and by Japan’s Mitsui E&P (5%).
