Introduction

  • Responsible for overseeing Electrical Engineering activities in Onshore Project-Utilities, ensuring all technical requirements such as project specifications, data sheets, etc. are in full compliance with project requirements, standardized processes, and are delivered to the highest technical quality standards.
  • Perform a cold eye review of the Electrical deliverables and propose changes, if considered mandatory.
  • During the phase, review Material Requisitions (MRs) and Technical Bid Evaluations (TBEs) proposed by the Project’s Contractor and provide necessary technical information/clarifications and/or approvals.
  • During the phase, provide clear guidance to the contractor, sub-contractors and vendors and facilitate resolution of electrical technical issues to complete electrical engineering activities such as design, procurement, and integration to meet project objectives and milestones.
  • Steward various phases of electrical engineering during installation, pre-commissioning Site acceptance test and commissioning activities.
  • During start-up and early operations phases, until the performance tests completion, provide ad hoc field engineering assistance.
  • Scope of work is a world class, large, complex, fast-track, multi-cultural and multi-location Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Commissioning Contract executed by an contractor Joint Venture.
  • Position is responsible to ensure all technical activities associated with the electrical engineering discipline by the contractor, and all third parties such as vendors, consultants, sub-contractors, etc., are executed to Project’s specifications and requirements with respect to electrical engineering including electrical balances, Licensor integration, power generation and distribution systems.
  • Position involves technical evaluations, including risk-based evaluation of complex engineering issues, resolution of electrical related matters with significant project execution and/or commercial impact to ensure optimum outcomes to meet technical and execution expectations.
  • Major challenges for this role include (1) effectively managing contract and electrical engineering team to produce timely deliverables up to Provisional Acceptance Certificate (PAC), (2) maintaining constructive working relationship with contractor to ensure delivery of engineering work scope in accordance with project requirements, (3) maintaining proper relationship with key stakeholders (e.g. Operations), and (4) to ensure high quality of electrical engineering deliverables.
  • Large scale and high voltage electrical power supply and demand requirements

What are you going to do 

  • Accountable for ensuring execution of work is technically aligned and in compliance with LNG Operations, Policies, Standards of Business Conduct and LNG Project Management System.
  • Leads electrical engineering design and planning activities and ensures contractor develops detailed design in accordance with local regulatory requirements, industry standards, project specifications and any approved variations.
  • Review, evaluate and advise on electrical simulations, optimization, in compliance with design methods, safety factors (for Large Electrical Generation and Distribution System, Large motor drivers, VFDs in both Motoring and Generating modes, combined cycle power generation, HV switchgears, Electrical Integrated Control System (ELICS) and Power management System for Generation, Load sharing and Distribution Control).
  • Review technical aspects of electrical equipment purchase orders with Contractor and vendors in accordance with the roles and responsibilities stated in applicable contract(s) to ensure safe and seamless integration of new electrical equipment into the existing operating facilities (when applicable).
  • Assess discipline plans and work schedules to ensure effective completion of project activities and provide data (narrative, charts, graphs), change management recommendations and recovery plans to address any schedule delays.
  • Monitor and provide guidance to Contractor to ensure key discipline deliverables, progress/milestones are met. Recommend additional technical support where necessary to address gaps.
  • Coordinate and analyze discipline issues for resolution. Provide Electrical Engineering input to other engineering disciplines, construction, procurement etc. as necessary. Support commissioning, start-up and system completing activities and make appropriate recommendations to management on Electrical matters.
  • Plan and schedule Electrical Engineering deliverables to enable efficient execution in meeting project milestones/schedule.
  • Leads the electrical discipline cold eye reviews/audits and Electrical interface coordination with offshore & onshore, RLIC, and Kahramaa power supplier, or any third party, as required, during the phases.
  • Contribute to Safety analysis studies such as SAFOP, HAZOP or HAZID and provide the required input to support project management in key decisions making. Participate in sharing lessons learned, together with capturing current lessons learned to benefit future projects.
