Job Description:

What you will deliver

• Support BP’s engineering application of tools and design methods for multiphase flow, in the context of Flow Assurance, through delivering or directly managing modelling of relevant flow scenarios.
• Review, update, and apply flow assurance strategies to prevent line blockages or other production upsets and minimize operating downtime as conditions change through field life.
• Perform multiphase flow and flow assurance analysis within an operational or project support context, understand the relationship between such work and key flow assurance decisions, and influence others to achieve desired objectives to mitigate flow assurance risks.
• Deliver flow assurance data analysis and presentation within an operational or project support context to enable continuous improvement in operational support, performance management of flow assurance activity and reporting of key performance metrics.
• Manage, coordinate and monitor flow assurance engineering contractors (on-site contract flow assurance engineers, or external suppliers), appropriate to the scale, complexity and business requirements of operating regions.
• Challenge, priorities and plan work requests to meet operational delivery schedule and quality.
• Engage key partners as appropriate to convey understanding of multiphase flow and its relevance to their context, developing and maintaining positive working relationships representing the flow assurance discipline across regions.
• Provide flow assurance operating philosophies to be implemented by others, including chemical or operational requirements for both steady state and transient conditions (start-up and shut down). Ensure that the Operating Guidelines and Procedures embody these strategies and solutions.
• Develop solutions to complex flow assurance problems that will improve safety, production efficiency and cost effectiveness.
