Client is a general contractor specializing in engineering, procurement, construction and installation of floating production systems including Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels, Floating Storage and Offloading (FSO) vessels, Tension Leg Platforms (TLPs), Production Semi-Submersibles, Mobile Offshore Production Units (MOPUs) and other new technologies which will meet the challenges of various types of gas production floaters. We have an exciting opportunity for Sr Process Engineer position in our Houston office.
The Sr. Process Engineer creates and reviews designs, drawings, specifications, etc. involving existing and new technology or applications.  The candidate will provide process engineering support of proposals and FEEDs.  The proposals and FEEDs are typically for upstream oil & gas facilities located on FPSOs or TLPs.
DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
The candidates will perform various conceptual studies that render the most optimized design catered to project-specific objectives – typically involving lowest life cycle cost.
The candidate will need to be capable of producing a broad spectrum of core process engineering and related deliverables to a FEED level of detail:
-               Simulation / Heat & Material Balances
-             PFDs
