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.

The partners in Block 31, off Angola, are celebrating after the Astraea-1 well hit oil - the eighth discovery on the deep-water block so far.
US player Marathon, one of the block's partners, said the find, along with three earlier discoveries - Ceres, Palas and Juno - made in the block's south-eastern sector, reinforce the likelihood of a second development area on Block 31.
Astraea-1 was sunk about 60 kilometres south-east of the planned North-east Development Area, which holds the Plutao, Saturno, Marte and Venus discoveries.
The latest find lies about 165 kilometres off Angola in 1496 metres of water. The well was drilled to a total depth of 3840 metres and tested at a maximum rate of 6513 barrels of oil per day.
Block 31's concessionaire is Angola's state-owned Sonangol. BP (26.67%) is operator. The other Block 31 partners are ExxonMobil (25%), Sonangol (20%), Statoil (13.33%), Marathon (10%) and Total (5%).
First production in Block 31 is forecast for 2009 or 2010.
BP is currently drilling another well, Hebe, in the south-eastern sector of the block.
